Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Compendium of Ancient and Modern History: With Questions Adapted to the Use of Schools and Academies; Also an Appendix
History must find a place in every well-regulated course of instruction. It is one of the most valuable branches of knowl edge, and no student can ever regret the time and labor spent in its study. The Compendium, in its improved form, is now offered to teachers, professors, parents, and all who take an interest in sound education as a truthful, pleasant, and impartial guide in a department of learning where safe guidance is all-important. I think it can fairly claim to be the most complete summary, in one handy volume, of ancient and modern history in the English language.
