THRILLING ADVENTURES AMONG THE INDIANS.

Comprising the most remarkable Personal Narratives of events in the early INDIAN WARS, as well as of Incidents in the recent Indian Hostilities in Mexico and Texas.  Illustrated with over 300 Engravings, from designs by W. CROOME, and other distinguished artists.

NOTICES OF THE PRESS.

“The matter contained in this handsome volume, is as well calculated to give a correct idea of the character of the Indians, and their modes of life, as that of any book ever published.  All that gives a charm to romance may be found in the narrative contained in this work, but all of them possess the never-failing attractions of truth.  The sufferings of numerous captives are also detailed, together with their contrivances of escape from their savage captors.  The illustrations, by the well-known W. Croome, are excellent in design and execution, and the printing and binding of the work are fine specimens of each art.”

GREAT EVENTS IN MODERN HISTORY: 

Comprising the MOST REMARKABLE DISCOVERIES, CONQUESTS, REVOLUTIONS, GREAT BATTLES, and other Thrilling Incidents, chiefly in Europe and America, from the commencement of the Sixteenth Century to the present time.  Embellished with over 600 Engravings, by W. CROOME, and other eminent artists.  The following are extracts from notices of the press received by the Publisher.

NOTICES OF THE PRESS.

“We have here, within the compass of eight hundred pages, the history of those events of modern history, which have been ‘big with mighty consequences,’ and with which, therefore, all men should become acquainted.  Beginning with the discovery of America, by Columbus—­that new starting-point of civilization—­the work proceeds through the history of the various European nations, culling those great periods when, either by wars or revolutions, each nation began to occupy a conspicuous place in the general estimation of men, and to make its influence felt by those without its limits.  The late revolutions in Europe, the Mexican war, and the gold discoveries in California, are rapidly and vividly sketched.  The illustrations, principally from designs by Croome, are numerous, well executed, serving to impress the striking scenes and characters of history upon the tablet of memory.  The whole work, in design and execution, reflects great credit upon all concerned in its production.”
