It is not generally known that the early history of the Swiss abounds in the most thrilling and interesting stories, of which that of Wm. Tell shooting the apple from the head of his son, by order of the tyrant Gessler, so familiar to every child, is but a specimen. The present volume, while it introduces the youthful reader to many of the scenes through which the brave Swiss passed in recovering their liberty, also narrates many stories of peculiar interest and romance, every way equal to that of Tell. Among these we may name,

• The Thievish Raven, and the Mischief he caused.
• How the Wives and Daughters of Zurich saved the City.
• How the City of Lucerne was saved by a Boy.
• The Baker's Apprentice.
• How a Wooden Figure raised Troops in the Valois.
• Little Roza's Offering.
• A Little Theft, and what happened in consequence.
• The Angel of the Camp.

With twenty-one other similar stories.
