Excerpt from A Dissertation on the Geography of Herodotus, With a Map: Researches Into the History of the Scythians, Getę, and Sarmatians; Translated From the German
This great work, on which the fame of professor Heeren principally rests, is now first offered to the English reader, after having passed through five large editions in the original German.
The volume containing the Political History of Ancient Greece, is already before the public. The approbation which that, as well as the translation of the Manual of Ancient History by the same writer, has met with, has induced the publisher to introduce the present work to English readers. The Reflections on the Asiatic and African nations will very shortly appear. In these the author is said to have discussed his subjects in their fullest extent; and to have furnished a more distinct account of their ancient condition than has ever been given by any other writer.
