Excerpt from Letters on French History: For the Use of SchoolsThe plan here adopted for the instruction and amusement of the historical student is that of an epistolary correspond ence, which, by assuming the form of a personal address, seems the best calculated for exciting attention, and the letters which divide the subject into distinct and specified periods, are begun and ended with appropria.te re¿ections, in order to render the narrative more impressive, as well as to exercise, the'too much neglected faculty of thinking. The reigns of the French monarchs are marked at the head of each letter, with the names of the cotemporary kings of England, an arrangement which renders the whole more interesting and luminous to those who are versed in Eu glish history.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
