Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from American Literature
It will be seen at once that there is an unusual apportionment of space. The more recent literature, which is generally dismissed in a few final para graphs, or ignored altogether, here receives liberal treatment. A prominence corresponding to its ao knowledged interest and value is given to Southern literature, and an attempt is made to do justice to our historians.
