Excerpt from The Heroes of England: Stories of the Lives of England's Warriors by Land and Sea The advantages to be derived by boy-readers from such a work, if perused in an intelligent Spirit, will hardly be questioned. Even the historical information to be thus acquired is not to be lightly regarded. But, apart from that consideration, it will not be denied that such scenes as those of the Black Prince treating his van quished enemy with chivalrous courtesy; Sir Philip Sidney handing the untasted cup of water to the dying soldier with the immortal words, Thy necessity is greater than mine; and Havelock, after showing himself through life the Christian soldier, saying at the hour of death Come, my son; and see how a Christian man can die! Are well calculated to enlist the sympathies, elevate the thoughts, and ennoble the aspirations of youthful readers.

Excerpt from Heroes of the Norselands: Their Stories Retold Lands were peopled, came there Odin, a mighty god, out of the East, to rule and direct them: for he saw that these men with fair hair and blue eyes would do great deeds, and that, because of them, the North should be held in honour of all nations as long as the earth should last. Sad was he, knowing that, for him and his, the end of all would come ere the greatness of this people reached its height. Yet was he content, since he, the all-father, could teach them truth and honour and the love of glory, and to die joyfully, before the Twilight of the Gods crept over the earth, and since he knew that the kingdom of a gentler god would follow his. Now the world was upheld by the mighty ash tree, Yggdrasil, and round it on all sides was the sea; and beyond the sea, ' the frozen land of the giants - Jotunheim.

Excerpt from Our Country in War and Relations With All Nations: A History of War Times, and American Heroes on Land and Sea On the front of the palace at Versailles, is in golden letters the famous inscription, "To All the Glories of France," and the splendor of the sentiment has preserved from the ruthless hands of revolution, and from defacement by enemies in temporary triumph, the marbles of the magnificent edifice and the proud letters of gold. The memories of nations have many forms of expression, and it is not those distinguished by pomp that seem to have been the most certainly preserved and to possess the greater assurance of perpetuity. In the mounds of the ancient cities on the Euphrates, in the hills of desolation that mark the sites of mighty capitals, are found cylinders of burnt clay on which are the records of the dynasties that have otherwise perished, of peoples among whose memorials no tower stands to tell the tale of the race, no arch abides to speak of the vanished ages or locate in the abyss beyond the era of history, the empires that are lost. It is the cylinder of clay that has the quality of immortality. Still more in the printed leaves of our time will be found the pages that minister to the pride of people, and on which are inscribed the lessons of the rise and fall of nations that shall enshrine the lives of great men and apply the excellence of good deeds. It is hoped in this volume to assemble the glories of our country, not alone those of war, but of peace, and especially to celebrate the policies that are executed for the general welfare, and the things that are done with public purpose for the common good.

Excerpt from Old Ironsides the Hero of Tripoli and and Other Tales and Adventures on Sea and Land I was astonished to find how far back his mem ory extended, and, as is frequently the case with extremely aged persons, he recalled incidents three quarters of a century old with more clearness than those of a recent date. He was born in 1778, and his commission as midshipman was dated in 1798. It. Was therefore ten years older than that. Of General Scott.

Excerpt from Splendid Deeds of American Heroes on Sea and Land, Vol. 1: Embracing a Comprehensive Summary of the Glorious Naval and Military Events From Washington to Dewey; Living Issues In the portion of this work which treats of Splendid Deeds we are brought face to 'face with the question: Is war ever justifiable? And, connected with this interrogatory, is the further question Should the deeds of war be enlarged upon and even glorified? The admirable words of the Rev. F. A. Noble, D. D., which follow this introduction, uttered in the presence of many of the brave heroes of our great civil war, will answer fully the first question.

Excerpt from Sea Kings and Naval Heroes: A Book for Boys The propriety and policy of directing the attention of English boys of the nineteenth century to the achievements of men who, at various periods of modern history, have made their names known to fame as Sea Kings and Naval Heroes, will be questioned by few in the present circumstances of Europe. Under an impression that such is the prevailing senti ment, I have ventured on writing the follow ing biographical sketches, with the object of interesting my juvenile readers in the careers of the principal personages among their anoes tors, who, from the time of Rollo and Hasting to that of Nelson and Collingwood, figured conspicuously as maritime warriors; and I have endeavored to give variety to the work by narrating with care the enterprises, the bat tles, and the adventures in which they took prominent parts.
