Opis: History of Spain and Portugal, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint) - Dunham S. A.

Excerpt from History of Spain and Portugal, Vol. 4

In closing the present compendium with the French Revolution, the author and editor have been actuated by two considerations: - 1. The number of volumes which it already comprises exceeds the just scale of proportion in regard to the historic part of the Cabinet Cyclopdia. 2. The most heart-stirring events since that period - those connected with the Peninsular war - have been so ably and so fully recorded in works accessible to every one, that the subject is no longer novel, perhaps no longer susceptible of interest. The author has, assuredly, no wish to follow such men as Southey and Napier.

Throughout these volumes it has been the author's wish to do justice to a noble people, to their institutions and character, of which neither is much understood in this country. Had, however, his limits been less circumscribed, he could have executed his task with more satisfaction to himself and the reader. As he intimated in the preface to Volume I., he has encountered difficulties enough. Of these, the greatest is that of imparting interest to a subject which has no unity.
