Excerpt from Kings, Queens and Barbarians: Or, Talks About Seven Historic Ages

When the celebrated Doctor Johnson was asked by a friend if he would advise one to read a voluminous work on China, the philosopher replied, "Why yes, as one reads such books - that is to say, consult it."


Of many large books with which our library shelves are burdened, we may say the same. Large books are to be consulted - small ones read. The opinion appears to be growing, that the worth of our volumes increases in proportion as their size decreases.

Specially is this true of works of history for the young. If the author can fix the mind upon certain salient points, important characters, or great eras, he may expect to make a vivid impression upon the young imagination.
