The Leading Facts of American History.  By D. H. MONTGOMERY, author of The Leading Facts of History Series. 12mo.  Half morocco. xii + 359 pages, besides colored maps and full-page illustrations, with an Appendix of 67 pages.  Mailing price, $1.15; for introduction, $1.00.

Few text-books have met with such immediate recognition as this.  Though published late in the summer of 1890, it was, within a few months, adopted by such cities as Philadelphia, Chicago, Providence, R.I., Burlington, Vt., Lynn, Mass., by counties, and by numberless institutions.  It seems to be regarded by the best judges as, on the whole, the best school history of the United States yet published.  It was written and not simply compiled.  The author did not take it for granted that a history of our country must be a perfunctory work made up from previous histories and merely iterating an old set of facts, ideas, and stories.  The book is a panorama of the leading events of our history, with their causes and results clearly traced.  Attention has been given to all the departments of American life and activity.  It describes the development of the American people.  The author’s broad and liberal sympathies saved him from sectarian, sectional, or partisan views.  The style is full of life, and the words can all be understood by the pupils for whom the book is designed.
