Outlines of English History,

Remarks on Manners, Customs, Arts, Dress, &c.

BY

HENRY INCE, M.A., & JAMES GILBERT.

It is a gratifying fact that this book is approved and adopted by the great majority of the Educational Institutions in the United Kingdom and the Colonies; indeed, it is recognised as by far the most popular work on the subject ever published.

"We need only say of this edition of these useful Outlines, that the book has been thoroughly revised, and, by an improved form of printing, so enlarged, as to give an equivalent of nearly fifty pages of new matter."-Notes and Queries.

Mair's Register says of the present edition: "This book is a marvel of cheapness, brevity, and comprehensiveness; indeed it is surprising how so much information could have been collated in so small a compass."

"A surprising amount of information; and no feature of interest in any reign is left unnoticed in its pages; the dates are uniformly correct. We recommend the book as both accurate and copious in the information which it supplies: the Genealogical Chart too adds considerably to the value of the publication." -Court Journal.

"Much valuable information in a small compass."-Builder. "That Ince's Outlines of English History, in its present form is a valuable text-book, we still believe, and, therefore, unhesitatingly recommend it."-Mair's Register.

"We are glad to see a new and improved edition of 'Ince's Outlines of English History,' a work which on its first appearance obtained our approval, and has since been well received by the public."-Fourth Review of the Athenæum.

"We are pleased to see this very valuable volume still extending the sphere of its useful operation. It embodies, to an extent nowhere else to be found within the same space, the main facts of the history of this great country, and is calculated to be alike useful to old and young."-Christian Witness.

CRITICISMS.

The Notes and Queries says: "The sale of 242,000 of the Outlines of English History, has induced the authors to prepare an extended edition, for use not only in families, but in higher schools and universities; the result is a most useful and comprehensive book."

The Court News says: "A very popular work, treating, as history should do, of the inner and social life of the people.'

Dr. Daniel, in the Mining Review, says: "It is with sincere pleasure that we venture to recommend this admirably written work. The narrative runs pleasingly on, besprinkled with excellent reflections, and without the omission of one important principle or event."

The Rev. Dr. Burgess, in the Clerical Journal, says: "It is surprising what an amount of information is compressed into this volume, not in a dry and mere catalogue form, but in a style interesting and clear.”

The Rev. Dr. Campbell, in the British Standard, says: "We are highly gratified at possessing such a digest. It is the completest, compactest, and most satisfactory thing of the sort in existence. We need not state how very cordially we commend the volume, which, for fulness, suggests the character of an historical cyclopædia."

The Literary Gazette says: "It is a very much enlarged and amplified edition; as a popular manual of English History we know no better or fairer book."
