Let F be a distribution in the domain of attraction of the type I extreme-value distribution Λ(x). In this paper we derive uniform rates of convergence of Fn to Λfor a large class of distributions F. We also generalise the penultimate approximation of Fisher and Tippett (1928) and show that for many F a type II or type III extreme-value distribution gives a better approximation than the limiting type I distribution.
