Excerpt from Rome and Carthage: The Punic Wars
The pages which follow are an abbreviation of my larger work on "Carthage and the Carthaginians." I have made no attempt to alter the language of the larger work, except where it appeared to me that 1 could alter it for the better. Indeed, any attempt to write down to the capacities of younger readers seems to me quite unnecessary in dealing with an "epoch of history" which, in the unique interest and importance of its subject, and in the simple grandeur of its leading characters, appeals with almost equal force to young and old.
