There are numerous time-honored stories which have become so incorporated into the literature and thought of our race that a knowledge of them is an indispensable part of one's education. These stories are of several different classes. To one class belong the popular fairy tales which have delighted untold generations of children, and will continue to delight them to the end of time. To another class belong the limited number of fables that have come down to us through many channels from hoar antiquity. To a third belong the charming stories of olden times that are derived from the literatures of ancient peoples, such as the Greeks and the Hebrews. A fourth class includes the half-legendary tales of a distinctly later origin, which have for their subjects certain romantic episodes in the lives of well-known heroes and famous men, or in the history of a people. It is to this last class that most of the fifty stories contained in the present volume belong. As a matter of course, some of these stories are better known, and therefore more famous, than others. Some have a slight historical value; some are useful as giving point to certain great moral truths; others are products solely of the fancy, and are intended only to amuse. Some are derived from very ancient sources, and are current in the literature of many lands; some have come to us through the ballads and folk tales of the English people; a few are of quite recent origin; nearly all are the subjects of frequent allusions in poetry and prose and in the conversation of educated people. Care has been taken to exclude everything that is not strictly within the limits of probability; hence there is here no trespassing upon the domain of the fairy tale, the fable, or the myth. That children naturally take a deep interest in such stories, no person can deny; that the reading of them will not only give pleasure, but will help to lay the foundation for broader literary studies, can scarcely be doubted. It is believed, therefore, that the present collection will be found to possess an educative value which will commend it as a supplementary reader in the middle primary grades at school. It is also hoped that the book will prove so attractive that it will be in demand out of school as well as in. Acknowledgments are due to Mrs. Charles A. Lane, by whom eight or ten of the stories were suggested.

Excerpt from Fifty Famous Stories Retold But the tide came in, just as it always did. The water rose higher and higher. It came up around the king's chair, and wet not only his feet, but also his robe. His officers stood about him, alarmed, and won-der-ing whether he was not mad. Then Canute took off his crown, and threw it down upon the sand. I shall never wear it again, he said. And do you, my men, learn a lesson from. What you have seen. There is only one King who is all-powerful; and it is he who rules the sea, and holds the ocean in the hollow of his hand. It is he whom you ought to praise and serve above all others.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Fifty Famous Stories Retold by James Baldwin.No book is better at introducing children ages 6 to 9 to legendary historical figures than this collection of stories admirably told by James Baldwin at the beginning of the last century. Selecting the best from our literary heritage, Baldwin shaped it in a way that delights children of all ages. Starting with stories of heroes from British history, including King Alfred and the Cakes, King Canute on the Seashore, and Bruce and the Spider, the book continues with tales from other lands. From ancient Greece come stories of The Three Hundred Valiant, Alexander and Bucepahlus, and Diogenes the Wise Man. The history of Rome presents the history of Cincinnatus, Horacio on the bridge and Julius Caesar.The stories of William Tell, Arnold Winkelried, and Robin Hood impart a bit of the flavor of the Middle Ages. Rounding out the collection are a series of timeless tales featuring heroes in action: Damon and Pythias, The Sword of Damocles, Picciola, and The King and His Hawk. James Baldwin (1841-1925) was born in Indiana, United States, and made a career as an educator and administrator in that state starting at age 24.
