NOTICES.
Invaluable to the student of American History.--_Baltimore (Md.)
Herald_.
Deserves a welcome in every school district, as well as in every
historical library in the land.--_Army and Navy Journal_.
In our opinion, General Carrington's work is an authority, showing great
labor and careful study, and it should become a national text-book, and
find a place in all public and private libraries.--_Indianapolis
(Ind.) Herald_.
Each map is accompanied with a statement of the generals and number of
men engaged on both sides, to which is appended the reason for such
battle or engagement, with remarks by the author, who is excellent
authority in military matters.--_The Educator (New Haven, Ct.)_.
A valuable compilation from the author's large work, and cannot fail to
make a more lasting impression upon the reader's mind than could be
derived from the perusal of many volumes of history.--_N.Y.
Herald_.
Each map is accompanied by a page of text, arranged upon a compact and
original system, so as to present a singularly clear view of the history
and significance of the engagement in question, the names of the chief
and subordinate commanders, the forces, nominal and available, the
losses on each side, and the incidents of the battle.--_N.Y. Evening
Post_.
