- "The work here presented to the public, after passing through five large editions, had been for years entirely out of circulation, when the Publishers, urged by its continued popularity, prevailed on the Author to prepare it for a sixth edition. This last impression having gone off with remarkable rapidity, the Publishers have now stereotyped the work, after again submitting it to the ordeal of a careful and scrutinizing revision."--Preface.
