"This little volume is designed for an introduction into schools, and as it contains many interesting anecdotes of Washington, and is written in a style very facinating to the young, it will have an extensive circulation.

"It has been a subject of just complaint, that in the lives of Washington, which have appeared, there has been so little of Biography, and so much of history, that we behold him only on the stage of public action, and are not permitted to see him in the private walks of life. Mr. Weems comes forward to supply this deficiency. He has collected a number of facts, particularly relating to the childhood and youth of the American sage, and has presented them to the public, in such an interesting, and, frequently, comic dress, that it will require the most immoveable gravity of disposition, to preserve a composure of muscles, in reading this book. With this inimitable talent for humour, it is a happy circumstance, that the author has a higher object than a laugh. He perceives the value of religion, and he wishes to recommend it by the example of Washington." Panoplist and Mis. Mag. united. 652 Weems's (Rev. Mason L.). Life of Dr. Benjamin Franklin. Written chiefly by himself; with a collection of his Essays, humorous, moral, and literary. A new edition, revised and enlarged, $1
