Heroes of the Nations.
A series of biographical studies of the lives and work of a number of representative historical characters about whom have gathered the great traditions of the Nations to which they belonged, and who have been accepted, in many instances, as types of the several National ideals. With the life of each typical character will be presented a picture of the National conditions surrounding him during his career.
The narratives are the work of writers who are recognized authorities on their several subjects, and, while thoroughly trustworthy as history, will present picturesque and dramatic “stories” of the Men and of the events connected with them.
To the Life of each “Hero” will be given one duodecimo volume, handsomely printed in large type, provided with maps and adequately illustrated according to the special requirements of the several subjects.

The Story of the Nations.
In the story form the current of each National life is distinctly indicated, and its picturesque and noteworthy periods and episodes are presented for the reader in their philosophical relation to each other as well as to universal history.
It is the plan of the writers of the different volumes to enter into the real life of the peoples, and to bring them before the reader as they actually lived, labored, and struggled—as they studied and wrote, and as they amused themselves. In carrying out this plan, the myths, with which the history of all lands begins, will not be overlooked, though these will be carefully distinguished from the actual history, so far as the labors of the accepted historical authorities have resulted in definite conclusions.
The subjects of the different volumes have been planned to cover connecting and, as far as possible, consecutive epochs or periods, so that the set when completed will present in a comprehensive narrative the chief events in the great Story of the Nations; but it is, of course, not always practicable to issue the several volumes in their chronological order.

Transcriber’s Note
The original cover has been enhanced to include the title, author, and date of publication, and is, so altered, placed in the public domain.
There are a number of editorial oversights wherein external and internal page references are left blank. Where the references could be found, they have been supplied.
87.27 on Waltheof’s case below, page [338.] Supplied.
116.31 See note, page [112] above. Supplied.
136.31 See the table on page [506] Supplied.
The missing page references to De la Borderie’s Histoire de Bretagne on pp. 138 (footnote 89), and 139 (footnote 90) could not be resolved. Nor could the reference to a prior quotation of William of Malmesbury be definitely made (p. 414). These are noted in this text as [missing].
The list of illusatrations includes a reference at p. x.13 to the image of a coin on p. 406, but no image was included in the text.
Footnote 260, on p. 339, had no reference in the text. One has been added at the most likely point in the narrative, given the context.
Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original.
