Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lardner's Outlines of Universal History: Embracing a Concise History of the World, From the Earliest Period, to the Present Time; Arranged So That the Whole May Be Studied by Periods, or the History of Any Country May Be Read by Itself; With Questions for Examination of Students "Dr. Lardner's 'Outlines of History; embracing a concise History of the World, from the earliest period to the Pacification of Europe in 1815.' This is the second American edition of that useful work, and the editor is John Frost, Esq., an eminent teacher of this city, who has made valuable additions, and appended a set of questions for the examination of students. He expresses a high opinion of Dr. Lardner's labors, and is well qualified to judge of their character." - National Gazette. "The main object of the work is, by giving a selection of interesting and striking facts from more elaborate histories, properly and carefully arranged, with chronological tables, to render the study of general history less dry and repulsive than it has been heretofore. This, we think, is fully accomplished. Very great care appears to have been bestowed on the selections, and in arranging the chronological tables, as well as in the classification of the historical matter into parts and chapters. The work will sufficiently recommend itself to all who examine it." - Saturday Evening Post. "To concentrate in one comparatively small volume, a complete epitome of the entire history of the world, ancient and modern, so treated as to present a correct image of it, would seem to be an object to be wished for, rather than expected; the 'Outlines of History,' however, realize this object." - Asiatic Journal. "We consider that Mr. F. has done a service to schools, by the time and labor which he has bestowed upon this work; the marginal dates will be found of great service, but the chapters of questions upon the text, and upon the maps, to illustrate the geography of the history, will especially recommend the work to the attention of teachers." - U. S. Gazette. Philadelphia, July 13th, 1831. "Having examined the 'Outlines of History,' edited by Mr. Frost, I take pleasure in bearing testimony to its merits as a neat and concise abridgement of general history, admirably adapted to the use of schools. The union of geography and history effected by using Mr. Frost's questions on the text, and on maps, will be found a most efficient means of interesting the pupil, and giving the history an air of life and reality which it could not otherwise possess."
