The work of translation has been done by Mr. George P. Upton, whose “Memories” and Lives of Beethoven, Haydn, and Liszt, from the German of Max Müller and Dr. Nohl, have been so successful. _Each is a small square 16mo in uniform binding, with from one to four illustrations. Each 60 cents net._ _FULL LIST OF TITLES_ Barbarossa Herman & Thusnelda William of Orange Beethoven Mozart Joseph Haydn Johann Sebastian Bach Maria Theresa Gudrun Swiss Heroes The Nibelungs Frithiof Saga The Maid of Orleans William Tell Frederick the Great The Little Dauphin “These narratives have been well calculated for youthful minds past infancy, and Mr. Upton’s version is easy and idiomatic.”—_The Nation._ “He is a delightful writer, clearness, strength, and sincerity marking everything to which he puts his hand. He has translated these little histories from the German in a way that the reader knows has conserved all the strength of the original.”—_Chicago Evening Post._ “They are written in simple, graphic style, handsomely illustrated, and will be read with delight by the young people for whose benefit they have been prepared.”—_Chicago Tribune._ “The work of translation seems to have been well done, and these little biographies are very well fitted for the use of young people.... The volumes are compact and neat, and are illustrated sufficiently but not too elaborately.”—_Springfield Republican._ “These books are most entertaining and vastly more wholesome than the story books with which the appetites of young readers are for the most part satisfied.”—_Indianapolis Journal._ _OF ALL BOOKSELLERS OR OF THE PUBLISHERS_ A.
