COMMONLY CALLED

THE GREAT REBELLION,

TRANSLATED BY WILLIAM HAZLITT.

One Volume 12mo. Price $1,25.

"The event which forms the theme of the work is one of the highest historical importance,-second to none in modern times, except perhaps the French Revolution. And M. Guizot is certainly qualified, most abundantly, and perhaps better than any living author, to do it justice. The main features of the work, as in all his writings, is the clear and profoundly philosophical spirit by which it is marked. The style is exceedingly elegant and fascinating,-graphic in the narrative of facts and incidents, and always lucid, even in the most abstract, philosophical discussion.

"The translator, Mr. W. HAZLITT, has appended a new and copious index, which adds essentially to the value of the work."-Courier and Enquirer.
