APPLETON & CO.'S PUBLICATIONS._ _New revised edition of Bancroft's History of the United States._ =HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES=, from the Discovery of the Continent to the Establishment of the Constitution in 1789. By GEORGE BANCROFT. Complete in 6 vols., 8vo, printed from new type. Cloth (blue or brown), uncut, with gilt top, $15.00; sheep, marble edge, $21.00; half morocco, uncut, gilt top, $27.00; half grained morocco, gilt top, $27.00; half calf, marble edge, $27.00. Vol. VI contains the History of the Formation of the Constitution of the United States, and a Portrait of Mr. Bancroft. In this edition of his great work the author has made extensive changes in the text, condensing in places, enlarging in others, and carefully revising. It is practically a new work embodying the results of the latest researches, and enjoying the advantage of the author's long and mature experience. "On comparing this work with the corresponding volume of the 'Centenary' edition of 1876, one is surprised to see how extensive changes the author has found desirable, even after so short an interval. The first thing that strikes one is the increased number of chapters, resulting from subdivision. The first volume contains two volumes of the original, and is divided into thirty-eight chapters instead of eighteen. This is in itself an improvement. But the new arrangement is not the result merely of subdivision; the matter is rearranged in such a manner as vastly to increase the lucidity and continuousness of treatment. In the present edition Mr. Bancroft returns to the principle of division into periods, abandoned in the 'Centenary' edition. His division is, however, a new one. As the permanent shape taken by a great historical work, this new arrangement is certainly an improvement."--_The Nation_ (_New York_). "The work as a whole is in better shape, and is of course more authoritative than ever before. This last revision will be without doubt, both from its desirable form and accurate text, the standard one."--_Boston Traveller._ "It has not been granted to many historians to devote half a century to the history of a single people, and to live long enough, and, let us add, to be willing and wise enough, to revise and rewrite in an honored old age the work of a whole lifetime."--_New York Mail and Express._
