We regard this work as the best contribution to modern history that
has yet been made by an American.—_Methodist Quarterly Review._
The “History of the Dutch Republic” is a great gift to us: but the
heart and earnestness that beat through all its pages are greater,
for they give us most timely inspiration to vindicate the true ideas
of our country, and to compose an able history of our own.—_Christian
Examiner_ (Boston).
