Synopsis

Excerpt from The Historic Note-Book: With an Appendix of Battles

The present book does for history what the first of the series did for phraseology, and the latter did for poetry and romance. It is purely historical, and explains with the utmost possible brevity allusions to historical events, acts of parliament, treaties, and customs, terms and phrases, made in books, speeches, and familiar conversation.
