We have not met with any History of Greece that contains, within the
same compass, so large an amount of interesting and valuable
information. Miss Corner writes concisely, perspicuously, and
sensibly.--_Westley Banner_.
A concise History of Greece, well adapted for Schools.--_Cambridge
Independent Press_.
This is a very excellent compendium of Grecian History, and such are
the merits of the Work that we shall not be surprised at its becoming
a popular educational book.--_The British Mother's Magazine_.
Remarkably clear in its arrangement, while the simple and easy
style in which it is written, peculiarly fits it for popular
use, it displays much careful research on the part of its
Author.--_Englishwoman's Magazine_.
Miss Corner has the art of writing so as to be understood by youthful
readers.--_London Literary Journal_.
By far the best introductory School History of Greece we have ever
seen.--_British Banner_.
A combination of simplicity of narrative, with comprehensiveness of
detail, admirably adapted for the use of the School-room.--_Douglas
Jerrald's Weekly News_.
With feminine delicacy, Miss Corner omits what should be omitted,
giving meanwhile a narrative of the broad character and features that
mark the progress of a nation.--_Express, Evening Paper_.
The results of the best modern scholarship are here given.--_Leader_.
Miss Corner's Histories require no recommendation of ours to bring
them into notice. This Volume, her History of Greece, is written with
great clearness and fluency, the fabulous tales which disfigure so
many professedly authentic histories of the Greeks are discarded. We
cordially recommend this work for the School-room, or family
circle.--_Gospel Herald_.
