HISTORY OF SPAIN,

ON THE PLAN OF MRS. MARKHAM'S HISTORIES OF FRANCE AND ENGLAND. BY LADY CALLCOTT.

2 vols. 12mo, 128.

"These works are constructed on a plan which is novel, and, we think, well chosen. They are divided into chapters, and at the end of each chapter is subjoined a conversation suggested by the matter of the preceding text. By this arrangement a consecutive narrative is kept up, while, at the same time, everything interesting connected with each reign is made the subject of discussion and examination; thus much valuable and curious information is imparted, without disturbing the continuity or perplexing the progressive steps of the history. We are glad to find that these excellent little Histories are deservedly popular; they cannot be too strongly recommended, as adapted for the perusal of youth, while readers of more advanced age may find in their pages much that is novel and entertaining." -Journal of Education.
