Reader's noteThe aim in preparing this Cyclopedia has been to provide a convenient work of reference for readers of all classes - comprehensive in scope, handy in size, moderate in price, and generally adapted to the needs of the day. Among the various classes of readers, it may be expected to prove more especially useful to those who, from the pressure of their daily occupations, find but little time for acquiring information from books in general, though they take an interest in many topics which lie outside their own pursuits. While matters that belong to ancient times are by no means neglected, attention is more especially given - as the title of the book suggests - to those which pertain to the present day and to the modern world.
