Preface

. My chief object in publishing this work ia to furnish my pupils with a compendium for their instruction in Modern History ; and I trust that it will become the means of their acquiring a fair knowledge of this branch of study. It will, however, be very gratifying to me, if sufficient useful and valuable information should be found in this volume, as to lead to its introduction not only into other Schools as a Text-book, but also into private libraries as a Book of Eeference. H. STEINMETZ. Tlw Lindens, Bedford, February 8th, 1869,
