" We have seldom had the pleasure of reviewing a more
ingenious, elegant, and at the same time philosophical and
useful work. It is well worthy of the public attention, as a
specimen of art, independently of its merits as an original
and eminently useful auxiliary to the study of the moat im-
portant branches of human knowledge.)P—Nw monthly
Magazine.
" Mr. Seeley has published a highly useful series of
Twenty-one Maps, with Historical Illustrations by Mr. Quin.
They are all on the same scale, and successively point out,
from the Creation to the year 1828, the progress of Geogra-
phical Discovery, the rise and decay of Nations and Empires,
and their political changes ; so that by merely glancing the
eye on any map, we discover the actual state of the world at
its date ; and by comparison with any other, the alterations
which have occurred ; every place being in the same relative
spot in the successive plates, and the tints and colouring be-
ing significant and connected with the accompanying tent,
which contains a well condensed Syllabus of Universal His-
tory. We know of no publication which forms a more va-
luable and interesting companion for the historical and geo-
graphical student, or for the instruction of young persons.' =
