Historical and Miscellaneous

PUBLICATIONS,

Ohio Valley Historical Series.

In our Prospectus, issued in April, 1868, we announced our intention of publishing, under this general title, a series of works relating to the early history of the Valley of the Ohio. It has not been our aim to give a consecutive history, but merely to collect and preserve by publication hitherto unpublished manuscripts of value relating to the subject, and to reprint some of the early works on Western history which are out of print and rare.

In carrying out this design we have issued the seven works here described. We have endeavored to make them valuable contributions to Western history-with what success we leave it for others to say-and to produce them in an attractive style. They have been liberally patronized where we least expected, and have met with little sale where we most looked for it-in the Valley of which they treat. We have not been sufficiently supported to warrant the continuance of the Series, and are reluctantly obliged to announce its close. They may yet work their way into public favor; if they do, we will perhaps renew the experiment, as there is no lack of material worthy of publication.

[From the Historical Record.]

"They are all beautifully printed on fine paper, with rubricated titlepages, and should be in the possession of every intelligent family in the Ohio Valley, and held almost as sacred as a family record. They are golden grains which compose the history of the heroic age of that country."

[From New York Genealogical and Biographical Record.]

"The 'Ohio Valley Historical Series' may well be termed model books in their way. In forin and execution so dainty and elegant that the East may well look to her laurels in the typographic art, if she would not be outdone by the Cincinnati printers. Nor are the contents of these volumes less fascinating than their excellencies of mechanical execution." “We welcome this noble (though private) enterprise, which has undertaken to give us in so authentic and so handsome a shape, these precious historic memorials of the Ohio Valley. Their interest is not merely

local: it is national in its character."
