An entirely new field of Historical labor. A splendid volume, the result of careful research, with the advantage of military experience.--_Geo. Bancroft_. It is an absolute necessity in our literature. No one can understand the philosophy of the old War for Independence, until he has made a careful and thoughtful perusal of this work.--_Benson J. Lossing_. The maps are just splendid.--_Adj. Gen. W.L. Stryker, N.J._ The book is invaluable and should be in every library.--_Wm. L. Stone, N.Y._ Of permanent standard authority.--_Gen. De Peister, N.Y._ Indicates such profound erudition and ability in the discussion as leaves nothing to be desired.--_Sen. Oscar de La Fayette, Paris_. I have read the volume with pleasure and profit.--_Z. Chandler_. The volume is superb and will give the author enduring fame.--_B. Gratz Brown, St. Louis_. It should have a place in every gentleman's library, and is just the book which young men of Great Britain and America should know by heart.--_London Telegraph_. The most impartial criticism on military affairs in this country which the century has produced.--_Army and Navy Journal_. Fills in a definite form that which has hitherto been a somewhat vague period of military history.--_Col. Hamley, Pres., Queen's Staff College, England_. A valuable addition to my library at Knowlsy.--_Lord Derby, late Brit. Sec. of State_. A magnificent volume and a monument of national History.--_A. de Rochambeau, Paris_. A godsend after reading Washington Irving's not very satisfactory Life of Washington.--_Sir Jos. Hooker, Pres., Royal Society, England_. A book not only to be read, but to be studied.--_Harper's Magazine_. The author at all times maintains an attitude of judicial impartiality.--_N.Y. Times_. The record is accurate and impartial, and warrants the presumption that the literature of the subject has been exhausted.--_The Nation_. Will stand hereafter in the front rank of our most valuable historical treasures. The descriptions of battles are vivid. The actors seem to be alive, and the actions real.--_Rev. Dr. Crane, N.J._ We are all indebted to you for the labor and expense of preparing this volume, and I hope it will, in time, fully reimburse you.--_Gen. W.T. Sherman_. -------------------------------------- Battle Maps and Charts of the American Revolution. By HENRY B. CARRINGTON, M.A., LL.D., U.S.A. Published by A.S.
