A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A vever humble, in the literature of the co intry, should be offered in a form less unworthy of the favour which it has found with many readers. The inherent, I fear irremediable, defect of the work belongs to its original aim and object. It was composed on a limited scale and in a popular form. The limitation of its extent entirely precluded (and this is usually fatal to such works) all citation of authorities. Frm the want of such authorities, the writer incurs at ODe the charge of presumption and the danger of originality: the charge of presumption as claiming for his own, thoughts common to many others ;the danger of startling mens minds on subjects, about which they are peculiarly sensitive, with views which may seem new, but which have long been maintained by accredited authors. All history, to be popular, ought to flow on in one continuous, unbroken current. A succession of historical disquisitions may be of the highest value, but they are not history.
