Publishers do not want ideal histories, complete in form, exhaustive in matter, but histories which will interest the public. Exhaustive histories are sometimes very exhausting to their readers. Again, I wished to give a picture of ascertained facts, and therefore made it a rule to deal with subjects which have been thoroughly discussed by specialists or illuminated by the publica tion of great works like Bishop Reeves' Aa'amnan's Co/mnba, and Dr. Todd's Wars of the Gaea'nil.
