Excerpt from A Parallel History France and England: Consisting of Outlines and Dates
Tms tabular history been drawn up to supply a want felt by many teachers of some means of their pupils what events in the two neighbour countries were contemporary Probably this never was so well done as in Stork's Stream of Time, a new edition of which I hope, with able assistance, in time to prepare and correct up to the present state of modern discovery. This, however, can consist of nothing but the briefest tabulated catalogue of names and dates; and the nations who have always been so closely intermingled, for mutual evil or good, require something more detailed. I have, therefore, tried to construct a skeleton narrative of the chief transactions in either country, placing a column between for what affected both alike, and trying to keep clear of what did not greatly concern either nation.
