EPOCHS OF HISTORY
=EPOCHS OF ANCIENT HISTORY=
Eleven volumes, 16mo, each $1.00.
=EPOCHS OF MODERN HISTORY=
Eighteen volumes, 16mo, each $1.00.
The Epoch volumes have most successfully borne the test of experience,
and are universally acknowledged to be the best series of historical
manuals in existence. They are admirably adapted in form and matter to
the needs of colleges, schools, reading circles, and private classes.
Attention is called to them as giving the utmost satisfaction as class
hand-books.
NOAH PORTER, _President of Yale College_.
“The ‘Epochs of History’ have been prepared with knowledge and artistic
skill to meet the wants of a large number of readers. To the young they
furnish an outline or compendium. To those who are older they present a
convenient sketch of the heads of the knowledge which they have already
acquired. The outlines are by no means destitute of spirit, and may be
used with great profit for family reading, and in select classes or
reading clubs.”
CHARLES KENDALL ADAMS, _President of Cornell University_.
“A series of concise and carefully prepared volumes on special eras
of history. Each is also complete in itself, and has no especial
connection with the other members of the series. The works are all
written by authors selected by the editor on account of some especial
qualifications for a portrayal of the period they respectively
describe. The volumes form an excellent collection, especially adapted
to the wants of a general reader.”
_The Publishers will supply these volumes to teachers at SPECIAL
NET RATES, and would solicit correspondence concerning
terms for examination and introduction copies._

the various volumes is further attested by their having been adopted

publishers beg to call attention to the following list comprising some
of the most prominent institutions using volumes of the series:
