Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Stories of the City of London: Retold for Youthful Readers
Stories either has been or might be made the subject of a separate instructive volume; but elaborations of History, with all their wide spread ramifications, are only really acceptable to the mature and already well-informed reader. To the young there must ever be a gradual acquirement Of all sorts of knowledge, and those histories which are most diffuse, and those biographies which are most ample, do not always make the deepest impression on youthful minds. Remembering this, my aim has been to retell these true stories graphically, yet succinctly.
