Two +courses are open, either to take a general and consequently dry history of +facts, such as Russell's Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of +a particular period or subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. +The former course usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is +unsatisfactory, because it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy +this difficulty, selections, continuous and chronological, have in the +present volume been taken from the larger works of Freeman, Milman, +Palgrave, and others, which may serve as distinct landmarks of historical +reading.

Two +courses are open, either to take a general and consequently dry history of +facts, such as Russell's Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of +a particular period or subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. +The former course usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is +unsatisfactory, because it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy +this difficulty, selections, continuous and chronological, have in the +present volume been taken from the larger works of Freeman, Milman, +Palgrave, and others, which may serve as distinct landmarks of historical +reading.

It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/14359-8.zip b/14359-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..d3e07b5 --- /dev/null +++ b/14359-8.zip diff --git a/14359-h.zip b/14359-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..c811493 --- /dev/null +++ b/14359-h.zip diff --git a/14359-h/14359-h.htm b/14359-h/14359-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..510770f --- /dev/null +++ b/14359-h/14359-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,2575 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> +<html lang="en-gb"> +<head> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> +<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> +<title>The Project Gutenberg EBook of Macmillan & Co.'s General Catalogue by Anonymous</title> +</head> + + +<body class="dgp"> +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of MacMillan & Co.'s General Catalogue of +Works in the Departments of History, Biography, Travels, and Belles Lettres, December, 1869, by Unknown + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

Two courses are open, either +to take a general and consequently dry history of facts, such as Russell's +Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of a particular period or +subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. The former course +usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is unsatisfactory, because +it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy this difficulty, selections, +continuous and chronological, have in the present volume been taken from +the larger works of Freeman, Milman, Palgrave, and others, which may +serve as distinct landmarks of historical reading.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> + diff --git a/14359-h/style.css b/14359-h/style.css new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4999c79 --- /dev/null +++ b/14359-h/style.css @@ -0,0 +1,104 @@ +/* + +The Gnutenberg Press - default CSS stylesheet +Copyright (C) 2003 Marcello Perathoner + +Further modification by Joshua Hutchinson - 2004 + +This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or +modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License +as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 +of the License, or (at your option) any later version. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Two +courses are open, either to take a general and consequently dry history of +facts, such as Russell's Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of +a particular period or subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. +The former course usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is +unsatisfactory, because it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy +this difficulty, selections, continuous and chronological, have in the +present volume been taken from the larger works of Freeman, Milman, +Palgrave, and others, which may serve as distinct landmarks of historical +reading.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses.

Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/14359.zip b/14359.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..afde3f3 --- /dev/null +++ b/14359.zip diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.

Two +courses are open, either to take a general and consequently dry history of +facts, such as Russell's Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of +a particular period or subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. +The former course usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is +unsatisfactory, because it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy +this difficulty, selections, continuous and chronological, have in the +present volume been taken from the larger works of Freeman, Milman, +Palgrave, and others, which may serve as distinct landmarks of historical +reading.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/old/14359-8.zip b/old/14359-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..d3e07b5 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/14359-8.zip diff --git a/old/14359-h.zip b/old/14359-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..c811493 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/14359-h.zip diff --git a/old/14359-h/14359-h.htm b/old/14359-h/14359-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..510770f --- /dev/null +++ b/old/14359-h/14359-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,2575 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> +<html lang="en-gb"> +<head> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> +<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> +<title>The Project Gutenberg EBook of Macmillan & Co.'s General Catalogue by Anonymous</title> +</head> + + +<body class="dgp"> +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of MacMillan & Co.'s General Catalogue of +Works in the Departments of History, Biography, Travels, and Belles Lettres, December, 1869, by Unknown + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

Two courses are open, either +to take a general and consequently dry history of facts, such as Russell's +Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of a particular period or +subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. The former course +usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is unsatisfactory, because +it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy this difficulty, selections, +continuous and chronological, have in the present volume been taken from +the larger works of Freeman, Milman, Palgrave, and others, which may +serve as distinct landmarks of historical reading.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> + diff --git a/old/14359-h/style.css b/old/14359-h/style.css new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4999c79 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/14359-h/style.css @@ -0,0 +1,104 @@ +/* + +The Gnutenberg Press - default CSS stylesheet +Copyright (C) 2003 Marcello Perathoner + +Further modification by Joshua Hutchinson - 2004 + +This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or +modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License +as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 +of the License, or (at your option) any later version. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Two +courses are open, either to take a general and consequently dry history of +facts, such as Russell's Modern Europe, or to choose some work treating of +a particular period or subject, such as the works of Macaulay and Froude. +The former course usually renders history uninteresting; the latter is +unsatisfactory, because it is not sufficiently comprehensive. To remedy +this difficulty, selections, continuous and chronological, have in the +present volume been taken from the larger works of Freeman, Milman, +Palgrave, and others, which may serve as distinct landmarks of historical +reading.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/old/14359.zip b/old/14359.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..afde3f3 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/14359.zip |
