%Mary Queen of Scots.%

This history is given here minute in every point of real interest, and without the encumbrance of useless opinions.  There is no sentence thrown away—­no time lost in mere ornament.  Perhaps no book extant containing so few pages, can said to convey so many genuine historical facts.  There is here no attempt to glaze over recorded truth, or win the reader by sophistry to opinions merely those of the author.  The pure, simple history of Queen Mary is placed before the reader, and each one is left to form an unbiased opinion from events impartially recorded there.  One great and most valuable feature in this little work is a map of Scotland, with many engravings of the royal castles and wild scenes connected with Mary’s history.  There is also a beautiful portrait of the Queen, and a richly illuminated title-page such as only the Harpers can get up—­National Magazine.
