 
This edition contains all the "Lives" and "Parallels" in Plutarch's own words, with such omissions only as were necessary to adapt them for young readers. There is also an Introduction and Life of Plutarch by the editor. As a standard work, adapted to both boys and girls, its wealth of anecdote and faithful portrayal of character render it peculiarly valuable. "Precious ore and no dross."—Home Journal. "It is a pleasure to see in so beautiful and elegant a form, one of the great books of the world. The best Plutarch for young readers."—Literary World. "Shows admirable scholarship and judgment."—The Critic. G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS, |
