Where has the recent pages button on the navigation bar gone?

On the V3 navigation bar we had a "go back one page" a "go forwards one page" and a "recent pages" button. The latter has disappeared in V4, which is inconvenient when I want to skip over several pages to get back to the one I wanted. Is there a way to retrieve this facility?

I didn't even notice that. However, I figured out the answer, if you right click on the 'back' arrow then you get the menu you're looking for.

The back/forward buttons should still be there by default, to restore them see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing

When you have restored them, there is a small change in functionality. The small dropdown marker next to the back/forward buttons has been removed. To get the list of sites, you can either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or hold down the left button until the list appears.
