Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dialogues on English History and the History of England in One Hundred Lines
The verses and dialogues which make up this little book were composed nearly forty years ago, and were used for fifteen years in High and Public Schools in Ontario, being simply dictated to_ the pupils, but never printed. It is only after spending the greater part of a lifetime in the practice of medi cine that the author has been induced to revise, re-write, and otherwise prepare them for publication. He has been led to do this by continual requests for copies, and these requests have in turn led him to believe that what was useful to many may' prove useful to yet more. The object of the book is to furnish the reader or student with a system of memory pegs, upon which a mass of historical information gradually may be accumulated from a properly directed course of wider study. The Hundred Lines should be thoroughly memorized by the student, as they link together the more important facts of English history in one strong chain.
