The Story of the Nations.
Messrs. G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS take pleasure in announcing that they have in course of publication a series of historical studies, intended to present in a graphic manner the stories of the different nations that have attained prominence in history.
In the story form the current of each national life will be distinctly indicated, and its picturesque and noteworthy periods and episodes will be presented for the reader in their philosophical relation to each other as well as to universal history.
It is the plan of the writers of the different volumes to enter into the real life of the peoples, and to bring them before the reader as they actually lived, labored, and struggled—as they studied and wrote, and as they amused themselves. In carrying out this plan, the myths, with which the history of all lands begins, will not be overlooked, though these will be carefully distinguished from the actual history, so far as the labors of the accepted historical authorities have resulted in definite conclusions.
The subjects of the different volumes will be planned to cover connecting and, as far as possible, consecutive epochs or periods, so that the set when completed will present in a comprehensive narrative the chief events in the great Story of the Nations; but it will, of course, not always prove practicable to issue the several volumes in their chronological order.
The "Stories" are printed in good readable type, and in handsome 12mo form. They are adequately illustrated and furnished with maps and indexes. They are sold separately at a price of $1.50 each. The following is a partial list of the subjects thus far determined upon:

HEBREW AND CHRISTIAN.
AN INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF THE BIBLE.
EDITED BY
Professors E. T. BARTLETT and JOHN P. PETERS,
OF THE P. E. DIVINITY SCHOOL, PHILADELPHIA.
(For Description of the Work see Prospectus, Page 17.)
Some of the Comments Received:
Extracts from Letters:
FROM THE RT. REV. HENRY C. POTTER, D.D., LL.D., NEW YORK.
"I congratulate you on the issue of a work which, I am sure, will find a wide welcome, and the excellent features of which make it of permanent value."
FROM THE REV. HOWARD CROSBY, D.D., NEW YORK.
"The 'Scriptures for Young Readers' is admirably conceived and admirably executed. It is the Bible story in Bible words.... It is the work of devout and scholarly men, and will prove a help to Bible study. I have examined it with great satisfaction, and have found on almost every page the marks of original investigation and wise judgment."
FROM PREST. JULIUS H. SEELYE, D.D., LL.D., AMHERST, MASS.
"Its excellence for its purpose has surprised me, and I give it my hearty commendation."
FROM PROF. HENRY THAYER, D.D., CAMBRIDGE, MASS.
"It more than meets my expectations; in fact, is so attractive that I have set myself to its perusal from end to end."
FROM PREST. M. B. ANDERSON, D.D., LL.D., ROCHESTER, N. Y.
"The work seems to me adapted to be useful in the education of the young in Biblical history and the great moral truths embodied in it."
FROM PREST. GEO. WILLIAMSON SMITH, D.D., TRINITY COLLEGE, HARTFORD, CONN.
"I have carefully examined the first volume of the 'Scriptures for Young Readers,' and am deeply impressed by the learning and skill shown by the authors. They undertook a very difficult work, and have accomplished it in a scholarly manner. If interest in the book is an evidence of youth, many will find from reading this 'Introduction to the Study of the Bible' that they are not as old as they supposed they were."
