The 'Feparation of this work occupi-
ed the Author MORE THAN FOUR YEARS,
during which he travelled NEARLY TEN
THOUSAND MILES, in order to visit the
prominent scenes Of the Revolution,
gather up local traditions, and explore
records and histories.
The object of the Author was to re-
produce the history of the American
Revolution in such an attractive man
ner as to entice the youth Of his coun-
try to read the wonderful story, and
become familiar with the founders of
our Republic and the value of their la
bors. The manner in which it has been
arranged and set forth renders it no
less attractive to the general reader
and the ripe scholar Of more mature
years.
Explanatory notes are given on every
page and also a biographical sketch Of
every man distinguished in the events
of the Revolution.
A copious Analytical Index is given
at the close of the second Volume, en-
bracing eighty-tive closely printed
pages.
This is in itself, complete synop-
sis Of the History and biography of the
period of our Revolutionary History,
and will be found exceedingly useful
for reference.
The work contains all the esse initial
facts Of the carly history of our Repub-
lie, Which arc scattered through scores
of volums, often inaccessible to the
great mass of readers. 1t forms com.

ing for the fields consccrated by patri.
otism, which lie scattered over our
broad land.
Upward of THIRTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS were expended in the pre-.
paration Of this work. The exquisite
cngravings, under the immediate Sill
pervision of the Author, from his
drawings, required the gratest care in
printing. TO this end the efforts of the
Publishers have been directed, and they
take great pleasure in presenting these
volumesas the best specimens of typog
raphy ever issued from the American
press.
