Description

Excerpt from Alexandria and Her Schools: Four Lectures Delivered at the Philosophical Institution, Edinburgh, With a Preface
I should not have presumed to choose for any lectures of mine such a subject as that which I have tried to treat in this book. The subject was chosen for me by the Institution where the Lectures were delivered. Still less should I have presumed to print them of my own accord, knowing how fragmentary and crude they are. They were printed at the special request of my audience.
