One was made into Dutch by Dr. C.'' Guyot, who with his brother formed the Guyot Library, at the Institution at Groningen, Holland, perhaps the most unrivalled collection of books in existence relating to the education of deaf-mutes and cognate subjects. This translation was never published. M. Weiss, of Munich, was in 1838 occupied with anothef in German. At present a French translation, which, however, is in many parts condensed, is in progress in a monthly journal; and in Spain a reprint of the original, with a historical preface, is shortly to be issued. The present English translation is the outcome of the suggestion of a few friends interested in the matter, who desired to see one made from an original copy in my possession.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMr. Dixon, of Northampton, himself engaged in the tuition of the deaf,'' gratuitously undertook the work, and it is due to him that this should be fully acknowledged, as the publication would not have been otherwise practicable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Publisher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
