IN undertaking "to contribute ·a short History c,f to the series called The Story of the Nations," Mr. Freeman says, in the Preface to his greater work on the same subject, that he did so "on the express ground that Sicily never was the home of any nation, but rather the meeting-place of many." The original suggestion had been that he should write a volume on Norman Sicily. But in view of the necessity of first introducing his readers to the earlier stages of Sicilian lflstory, this suggestion finally ripened into the proposal to write the wh-ole story of Sicily, from the earliest days of the Greek colonisation to the time of Frederick the Second. The idea grew. It had for'many yeqrs been a favourite saying of Mr. Freeman that" in order bo write a small history you must first write a large one." viii PREFACE.

In this way the II Little History of Sicily II gave birth to the larger one, of which three volumes, reach­ ing down to the time of the Athenian siege and the tyranny of Dionysios, have already been issued by the Clarendon Press. Besides this, there exist materials for a continuation of the larger history down to the period of the Roman Conquest and for a later volume on Norman Sicily. But, unhappily for his readers, he has not been spared to bring the work, either in its greater or lesser form, to com­ pletion. With the exception of the headings from p. 297 onwards and the Index, which has been drawn up as far 3.S possible on the lines of those maue by the author himself for his greater work, the whole of the sheets had been passed for press by Mr. Freeman before he left England on his last journey-a journey to Spain, undertaken with a special view to the better understanding of the later parts of his great work. The present volume goes down to the end of the Roman dominion, and the last pal't of 'he book, which deals with Sicily as a Roman Province, covers a period which, in contrauistinction to his usual practice, he had not yet written in the larger form. It had been his intention to add to the present a ~cond volume, beginning with the coming of the Saracens, and which should, accoruing to the hopes PREFACE. ix expressed in hIS greater work, have been at any rate carried on "till the Wondel' of the World is laid in his tomb at ," or, it may be, carried on yet further to the time when the "island story" should be merged in that of the new Italian Kingdom. But it was not so to be. The" life and strength" that he had hoped for failed him before their time, and, in the language of the Psa:lmist, whose words were ever on his lips and in his writings, his strength was brought down in his journey, his days were shortened. He died at on March 16, 1892. A. }. E. AND M. E. CONTENTS.
