Excerpt from A Chronological View of the World
This volume is intended to accompany and illustrate Strass's Stream of Time or Chart of Universal History, as happily adapted to English literature, by Dr. Irving of Great Britain. The illustration at the bottom of the chart will sufficiently explain its use. It is a complete bird's-eye view of Universal History, and by a careful inspection of it, will convey a more complete view of the subject than can otherwise be obtained in the same time. The following concise work is chiefly taken, as the title indicates, from the article Chronology, in Sir David Brewster's New Edinburgh Encyclopedia, a work of great and deserved reputation; and like all the articles in that work, it is very complete of its kind. It contains a much more full view of the events of Universal History than could be indicated in the body of the chart, and will greatly aid the study of history by the use of it. The facts recorded in this volume are exceedingly numerous and very much compressed, and are not designed so much for continuous reading, as for reference and review. For continuous reading there are numerous universal histories of all dimensions, which can everywhere be obtained, but after such reading, this more concise and comprehensive work will be exceedingly useful for a review of the whole subject, and even of itself will furnish an extensive view of Universal History, and will greatly add to the value of the chart. With regard to the additions to the work of Sir David Brewster, the object has been, by enlarging many of the articles, to present the subject somewhat more in detail, and to relieve the dryness of a mere chronological table; to add important particulars not contained in the work from which it is taken, particularly in regard to American history; and to continue the whole to the present time.
