From the Foreword: When Harry S. Truman was a child, he saved his dimes and bought a set of Plutarch's Lives. Years later, during an interview he commented, My father used to read me out loud from that. And I've read Plutarch through many times since. I never figured out how he knew so much. They just don't come any better than old Plutarch. He knew more about politics than all the other writers I've read put together. When I was in politics, there would be times when I tried to figure somebody out, and I could always turn to Plutarch, and nine times out of ten I'd be able to find a parallel in there." This volume of Plutarch for Children is being reprinted in hopes that parents and children can regain the same sort of appreciation for the classics. Special thanks are due to the Consortium for Classical Lutheran Education for making the initial reprints possible--and to Wipf and Stock for their expertise. Rev. Joel A. Brondos, Headmaster, Zion Lutheran Academy, Fort Wayne, IN November 2002

Excerpt from The Children's Plutarch: Tales of the Romans I do not know why it is that among the Greeks and Romans who are so nearly fabulous as to be scarcely historical at all, Romulus should have a living hold upon the imagination, and Theseus should remain a very dim memory. The Lives of Plutarch begin with these founders of the Roman and the Grecian states, but if the balance tilts so heavily on the side of the Romans, it is dressed in favor of the Greeks in the next following lives of Lycurgus and Numa, and the next of Solon and Poplicola, and the fourth pair, Themistocles and Camillus. It is not until we come to Pericles and Fabius that the balance begins to be even again; and there the splendor of the Grecian's statesmanship eclipses the glory of the Roman patriot in the eyes of those who value civic genius above military virtue.

Excerpt from The Children's Plutarch: Tales of the Romans Another thing which I could wish the children to observe is how the wisest and best of the an cients were in the bonds of fear to signs and por tents which men laugh at now. This was because their education was, at the best, philosophical, and dealt with conduct through the discussion of moral principles under gods who had none, while the modern education is scientific, and has enlarged the world to boundlessness through vaster knowledge and sympathy with every form of life. The Ro man world, though it was the whole civilized world, was a small world, and it sank at last under the fears and dangers that always encompassed it in the unknown beyond it.

The Lives of Plutarch is a series of biographies of famous men, arranged in tandem to illuminate their common moral virtues or failings, written in the late 1st century. It is a work of considerable importance, not only as a source of information about the individuals biographized, but also about the times in which they lived. The children's edition of this classic book, published here, makes for wonderful educational and character-building reading for school-age readers.
