Tlie editor of the North A in.?ncart Review,
speakmg of these Histories, observes, that "A.
rnong ine elementary oooas 01 American iiiaio-
ry, we do not "remember to have area any one
more deserving approbation than Mr, Grimshaw's
History of the United States. U is a small v,ol-
time and a great cal of matter is brought into a
narrow space but -the author has succeeded so
well in the construction of his period, and the
arrangement of his materials, that perspicuity is
rarely sacrificed to brevity. .
Ihe ciiam of parativc is skilfully preserved'.
and the author's reflection" are frequently such
as mike the facts more impressive, and lead the
youthful mind to observe causes and couseooeo.
cos wincu might otherwise be overlooked. .As a
sclwiol-book, it may be justly recommended.
' Whal has been said of this volume will nppfv
generally to his other historical work.'; Tuey
are each nearly of tho same site as then one just
noticed and designed for the tsamtf object, that is,
the use of classes in schools." " -
All these books are accompanied with 'very
full and well digested, tables of.quetionmg for
the benfit of pupils, and alfo with Keys to the
same lor me convenience of teachers.
i Ieichers irnerally. "who have e -amined Mr.
Gnmshaw's Histories of the UnitedStalcs and
England, and improved editions of Goldsmith's
Greece and Rome, have given them a decided
prciercnce to any other Histories in Use a school
pooss, and ana person who will examine them,
will find about ooe thousand error- in each cor-'
rectcd; and teachers ordering these worjts, will
do well to say, Grimshaw's Improved Edi.
