The Century War i5ook q"

The enthusiasm awakened by the popu-
lar edition Of The Ceatury War Book.
lately issued by The Times under the
auspices Of the Century Company, is
fully warranted by the character Of the
work
While no doubt much of this popular
interest Is due 10 the eyer growing feel
ing Of patriotic pride inherent among all
loyal Americans. still IL must be appa-
rent to the reader of discrimination that
this is no ordinary publication
Planned upon lines never before laid
out for any publication, this superb work
mas In every detail not only fulfilled but
by far exceeded anything heretofore pub
Hshed. This was 10 be expected % the
weil-known Century Company. but owing
10 the comprehensive character Of the
establishment was taxed 10 the utmost
III KS production.
Beginning with the idea Of a perfectly
impartial history, for the first time il
was made possible to obtain the personal
narratives OF the leading actors upon both
sides by interesting all the yet living
commanders OF note, both military and
naval.
SO there is 20 action or campaign OF
the war Of the states which is not fully
explained and elaborated by the best Of
authorities.
In the matter OF illustrators the work
is equally happy Oowing TO It's eXccp-
tional facilities and reputation the Cen
tury Company was In d position TO OBJ
tam original photographs and wartime
sketches, which. while practically UNI
limited IN the scope Of field covered, were
yet inaccessible 70 any other publishing
concern.
All Of the leading artists and engrav-
ers OF reputation were secured I'm the
elaboration OF this part Of the work. and
the result has been series OF interesting
and instructive pictures which IN them
selves afford graphic pictorial history
OF the great conflict.
The Century War Book" therefore
comes to readers OF all sections OF the
country as a unique and perfectly accep-
table piece OF literature. IL Is equally
available as an educational work or one
adaptable for general reading purposes
10 an eyes alike. There is hardly a page
throughout the entire book which Is not
replete with thrilling incident Of personal
experience and Illuminated with striking
pictures.
So the children OF veterans who wore
both the blue and the gray may peruse
the book with equal enjoyment and pro
nj. Here are embodied In imperishable
records the heroic story OF yalOrous deeds
accomplished by those whom they are
proud 20 honor.
1t Is something 10 have lived in those
stirring times, and TO have been person
ally related 10 the actors in the greatest
civil conflict OF history. IL is also a mat
ter for congratulation that any house
hold, however limited its resources, may
possess the complete and authenticated
