History of the war in the Peninsula and in the south of France from the year 1807 to the year 1814, vol. 2
Napier, William Francis Patrick
Peninsular War, 1807-1814
The EXPECTATIONS formed by the PERSIANS, that a GREAT DELIVERER
would appear about the time of our Lord’s Advent, demonstrated.
The EXPECTATIONS formed by the ROMANS, on the same subject, will
follow in continuation; and it is the Author’s intention to extend
his inquiry to the GREEKS, EGYPTIANS, and other great Nations.
The Author is engaged in printing a uniform edition of his works,
in ten volumes; the several parts of which will appear _seriatim_.
Separate titles will be, however, furnished to the different
volumes, for the convenience of those readers who may feel disposed
to purchase only a part of the collection.
TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE

Some hyphens in words have been silently removed, some added,

and inconsistent or archaic usage, have been retained.
