WILLSON'S HISTORICAL SERIES. NOTICES OF WILLSON'S UNITED STATES. From the Pennsylvania Enquirer. "We believe it to be by far the most accurate school-history of the United States ever published. The style of the work will be found peculiarly clear and concise and at the same time easy and attractive." From the Courier and Journal, Albany. "An improvement upon any history of the United States of the kind that we have met. It is comprehensive enough to give a full idea of the subject, and is brief enough not to be tedious to the pupil. Besides, it is accurate and reliable in its facts." From the New Jersey Advocate. "A work superior, in many respects, to all that have preceded it, as a text-book of American History." From the New York Observer. "Mr. Willson is favorably known by his United States History, which is distinguished for its accuracy and comprehensiveness." From the American Journal of Education. "We know of no other volume of American History which is so accurate, and at the same time so full." From the Book Committee, Cincinnati. "The Text-Book Committee having examined Marcius Willson's History of the United States, would hereby recommend it as a suitable book for the use of the Common Schools of the city. We would suggest, that hereafter it should be used in the place of Mrs. Willard's Abridgment. The work now recommended is one of great accuracy, clear and forcible style, and the arrangement of the work is natural. The marginal dates, (new style,) as here arranged, we consider of great importance to a school-book, when dates are taught as a part of Common School Instruction. On the 224 February, 1847, the Board of Trustees and Visitors of the Common Schools of Cincinnati unanimously adopted the following resolution:- "Resolved, That the United States History, by Marcius Willson, be, and the same is hereby adopted by the Board of Trustees and Visitors, as the text-book to be used in the Common Schools of Cincinnati, in place of the Abridgment, by Mrs. Willard." 22 ILLUSTRATED BY NUMEROUS GEOGRAPHICAL AND HISTORICAL NOTES AND MAPS: EMBRACING PART I.
