Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictorial Modern History, From the Discovery of America by Columbus to the Present Time And bringing into strong relief the men and things that have exerted the strongest influence on the grand current of human affairs. The divisions of the subject are few, and the narrative as simple and direct as so extensive a plan would by any means permit. Leading characters and events are dwelt upon according to the author's estimate of their relative importance, and others are necessarily passed over with, comparatively, slight notice. But little Space has been afforded to the history of our own country, from the conviction that this course would be most acceptable to intelligent readers, familiar as they are with all the great events of American history.
