Dr. CABANES'
CABINET OP HISTORY.
The Medical Standard (Chicago}: "To the casual observer this book might
seem to be worthy a place only in the Index Expurgatorius, but to the student of history and to the book-lover it is a rare prize. The bearing of things medical on the history of nations is, as a rule, carefully concealed from public view; but Dr. Cabanes has opened the secret cabinet and disclosed its interesting contents. The book is prefaced by a letter from M. Sardou, in which he courteously declines to write a preface.
u History, says Macaulay, is made up of the bad actions of extraordinary men .... Nine-tenths of the calamities which have befallen the human race had no other origin than the union of high intelligence with low desires. The Secret Cabinet of History is made up of descriptions of the extraordinary actions of great men and women.
" From these little glimpses behind the scenes, the reader will gain many ideas of the inherent divinity of kings which may be at wide variance with his preconceived opinions. The book-lover will be delighted with the appearance, paper and artistic make-up of the book. We shall await with interest the second series, which is soon to be published."
