Excerpt from The History of Nations, Vol. 25: General Index In addition to the main entries, there are about 300 biographies of noted persons, each in its alphabetical place, about one hundred special topics, such as Agriculture, Archaeology, Architecture, Bat tles and Sieges, Political Parties, and Religion, thus enabling one who is desirous of studying any of these subjects to find quickly all the references; then there are about 2500 cross-references. Many of these cross-references are such as are necessitated by variation in spelling among authorities, but more are sobriquets such as Cor poral, The Little: see Napoleon (i) Bonaparte under Napoleon will be found not only the sobriquet quoted but also ten other well known ones. Part II is a General World Chronology and here the reader can fix in memory the great events and crises of world history. This section is designated to be used in connection with the General Index and the various volumes, thus enabling the student to acquire a knowledge of history in its broadest aspects. The third section is something never before included in an index to any historical work and yet there has been a need for a long time for just such a classified and chronologically arranged Bibliography of Historical Novels.
