Excerpt from A History of England in the Lives of Englishmen, Vol. 1 The plan of the present Work is, we believe, original; but it is simple, and possesses strong recommendations. Its object is to combine the advantages and attractions of History and Biography; to present to the British reader A History of his country, in the lives of those distinguished men who gave the tone and character to their times, or whose names are connected with its glory in arts or arms; and to do this in such an order as may at once exhibit the progress of the nation in liberty and greatness, mark the chronological relation to each other of these eminent individuals, and bring out into clear light the events in which they were the prominent actors. Instead of a dry, abstract, and burdensome succession of events being imprinted, after immense labour, upon the memory, the study of our national history in these consecutive series of illustrious biographies, will it is hoped be found to confer upon each! epoch and event a personal interest, and to excite all the sympathies of our humanity. It will be found, it is expected, to be the very best method of strengthening the memory, awakening the imagination, and individualizing the subjects on which our judgments are to operate. It will give, instead of a huge mass of bald facts collected secundem artem, in a picturesque and dramatic shape, the very soul of history, as seen in the breathing agents of its fulfilment. A combined and general view of facts, principles and changes, which such a noble subject as the History of England furnishes to the philosophical cultivators of it, is not indeed without its peculiar advantages, but before, or even along with that, the present work will, we anticipate, be read with far more advantage than any number of recurrences to the same generalized authorities can yield.

John Richard Green was an English historian. He was the author of seven books although History of the English People was arguably one of his finest. Although Green began his career as a clergyman, he was always an enthusiastic student of history. Ultimately he decided to change his chosen profession, quit the clergy and became the librarian at Lembeth. Writing history was always part of his plan and he began straightaway to bringing those plans to fruition. When he undertook the project that resulted in this book, he began with the thought in mind that there were not enough published and reputable materials about the history of England. "For the conquest of Britain by the English our authorities are scant and imperfect." Therefore, he took it upon himself to complete a comprehensive and well sourced document about English history. While completed later in his life, this book (along with his last of his books), were written during a period of ill health. Due to this, his wife, Alice Stopford, helped complete his writing when he was too ill to continue. That means that some of this book is written by her hand as well which makes it an interesting exploration of England and perhaps the first one written by both a man and a woman (although she is not given author credit). Only the reader can determine if Green was truly successful in his quest to achieve a complete work (with verifiable and strong sources) about the life and history of the English People. His work stands the test of time as a monument to the life and dedication of one man, relentless in his quest to pursue his dreams and ultimately make the world a better place.

Excerpt from A Short History of the English People, Vol. 1 The histories of the nations, must remain as one of the most characteristic products of our English life, and is in some sort the very expression of the people among whom it was conceived and for whom it was written. With its roots sunk deep in our English soil, made of the very substance of our English life, its whole character determined by the special conditions of our Eng lish society, it has taken the very impress of the temper and qualities which have given to the struggle of this people for their national liberties its peculiar spirit and form. Nor would it be easy to measure the in uence which the book has actually exerted in this generation, both in giving a new direction and method to historical study, and in giving to the people a fuller conscious ness of what our Commonwealth imports. Read by hundreds of thousands of Englishmen, it has not passed through their hands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Making of England, Vol. 1 of 2 Britain, and in wmch their political and social life took the form which it still retains. The centuries of administrative organization which stretch from Ecgberht to Edward the First, the age of full national development which extends from Edward's day to our own, only become intelligible to us when we have fully grasped this age of national formation. I cannot but feel, therefore, that it is no slight misfortune that such a period should remain comparatively unknown, and that its struggles, which were in reality the birth-throes of our national life, should be still to most English men, as they were to Milton, mere battles of kites and of crows.

Excerpt from A History of the English Church, Vol. 1: First Period, From the Planting of the Church in Britain to the Accession of Henry VIII How constantly the Church of England is found struggling and contending against the encroachments and exactions of a foreign power, and asserting its rights against the ever-growing pretensions of Papal supremacy. It is. Time indeed that that shallow view of history, which sees in the Royal Supremacy a new invention of Henry VIII, were altogether discarded. The Church of England has been contending through out for national life, which it only fully reached in the sixteenth century. Thus, this volume is strictly introductory to the one already published in the same series, containing the History of the Reformation; and forms, together with it, a complete and continuous History of the Church of England.
