About this book
A Modern History, From the Time of Luther to the Fall of Napoleon announces its historical scope in the title and specifies use in schools and colleges. The account describes Leo X as patronizing art and literature and ornamenting his capital with palaces, churches and statues. The account says that Leo summoned Luther to Rome to be tried by Prierias, while Luther sought a hearing in Germany.
The section headed Writers of the Age of Queen Anne describes Bolingbroke as a statesman and a writer on history and political philosophy. The military account gives the land forces of Great Britain at the beginning of 1800 as one hundred and sixty-eight thousand men, excluding militia.
