Excerpt from A Short History of the World This short history OF the world is meant to be read straight forwardly almost as a novel is read. It gives in the most general way an account of our present knowledge of history, shorn of elabora tions and complications. It has been amply illustrated and every thing has been done to make it vivid and clear. From it the reader should be able to get that general View of history which is so neces sary a framework for the study of a particular period or the history of a particular country. It may be found useful as a preparatory excursion before the reading of the author's much fuller and more explicit Outline of History is undertaken. But its especial end is to meet the needs of the busy general reader, too driven to study the maps and time charts of that Outline in detail, Who Wishes to refresh and repair his faded or fragmentary conceptions of the great adventure of mankind. It is not an abstract or condensation of that former work. Within its aim the Outline admits of no further.

Excerpt from Grandest Century in the World's History This volume contains a full and glowing account of the world's wonderful progress in the Nineteenth Century. It vividly depicts the grand climax of all the centuries, and describes the great events that have made the history of mankind sublime and glorious. It is a marvellous record of Brilliant Achievements, such as the Triumphs of Electricity; Great Explorations and Discoveries; the Application of Steam to Navigation; the growth of the World's Navies, and the amazing advances in Education, Religion, Literature, Art and Science. Such a Century Plant, unfolding its wonderful blossoms, has not been seen before in the history of man. The last Hundred Years have witnessed the Growth of the United States from five and a half million people to more than seventy million; amazing strides in Agriculture; the development of Immense Natural Resources, and the victories of Invention, Heroism and Statesmanship. The swift march of events in other parts of the globe includes the down-fall of Napoleon I. and Napoleon III.; the rapid changing of the map of Europe, the conflict between Russia and the Allied Powers of England and France; the expulsion of Spain from the Western Continent; and the bloody war in South Africa. The last third of the Century witnessed a spirited struggle among the European Powers for supremacy in Africa, which a few years before was an unknown Continent. This masterly work contains a vivid account of the desperate conflict between the British and the Boers, states the Causes of the War, and furnishes graphic descriptions of Battles, Sieges, and Heroic Achievements, which tested the courage, endurance and patriotism of the sturdy combatants. It is a peerless volume, unrolling a grand panorama of historic events and the world's progress in every field of human activity. Part I. - Great Events of American History in the Nineteenth Century.

Excerpt from The Relation of Literature to History The reading of literature as a necessary prelim inary to history Would, perhaps, more than anything else, act as a remedy for existing conditions. But a difficulty will, perhaps, be urged in convincing the Teutonic school of historians and their American followers, of the necessity, let alone the desirability, of such study; so profoundly is even gold distrusted by those who seek only to mine the quartz without separating it from the precious metal.

Excerpt from The Study of History This generalization includes the spiritual as well as the physical life. Its application is to the subjective as well as the objective phase of universal experience. It recognizes what Emerson calls the one mind common to all individual men. The higher life is always conditioned upon the lower, so that the study of spiritual experience loses much of its value unless it is based upon material conditions and physical phenomena. It must also recognize the fact that the human mind uses the body as its instrument and that so far as our actual experience goes, we have no knowledge of any other means by which it may express itself. The appreciation of this relationship is indispensable to a sound view of the processes of education, considered in the larger sense. Upon it also depends the development of all the activities that are rational and wise in so connecting the past with the future in our thought that the lessons of the former may produce their due effect and yield their due results in the life of the latter. Human life in the spiritual aspect is not less an evolution than in the physical. We must learn not merely to accept this fact in its formal sense but also to apply it in good faith and in full reality to the problems of life. There is no personal element in the government of the spiritual realm any more than in the physical world. What we call moral laws are no less fixed and unchangeable than those which we designate as physical. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from History of the World War, Vol. 1 The World War, entering its thirty-fourth month, as these lines are writ ten, has had three distinct phases, both on the military side and on the larger and more significant human side. The three military phases are supplied by the Marne campaign and its immediate consequences; the Russian campaign, with its Balkan episode and its Verdun ending; the Allied offensive in the west, which began at the Somme in July, 1916, and is still proceeding before Arras and along the old Aisne battlefield. In the Marne campaign Germany sought a complete triumph by a swift and terrible thrust at France, the only one of her foes then in any sense pre pared for war. Her thrust was parried at the Marne and permanently blocked at the Yser and at Ypres. Thereafter she had to turn east and restore the fail ing fortunes of Austria and protect her own imperilled marches. In the Russian campaign Germany sought to dispose of Russia, as she had endeavoured to dispose of France in the Marne campaign. Immediate success escaped her in this field. Despite terrible defeats and long retreats, Russian resistance was not broken, although the Russian Revolution, now the main factor on the eastern front and unmistakably a consequence of Russian defeat, gives to the German campaign of 1915 a value that was not perceived at the time. What the permanent value will be remains problematical. But as she had to turn east, with her western task incomplete in Germany had, after a brief and glorious campaign on behalf of her Turkish ally, to return west in February, 1916, and seek at Verdun what she had not attained on the Marne. Her failure there cost her the initiative and condemned her to the defensive. The campaign which opened at the Somme is still proceeding. Since they began their attack on July 1, 1916, the Allies have steadily, if only slowly, pushed the Germans back and the recent victory of Arras demonstrates that the British army has at last reached a high state of efficiency, while there are signs, far from conclusive to be sure, of a decline in German morale. At all events, the Germans remain on the defensive and the end of this third phase has not come. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Essentials of History, and Historical Chart System While it is essentially true that there is no royal road to learning, it is equally true that the acquisition of knowledge may be greatly facilitated by the 'methods employed. Such methods are designed, not as an escape from the labor that true learning involves, but the saving of unnecessary labor and the placing of facts and processes before the mind for a clearer and quicker apprehension.

Excerpt from Teaching of History in Elementary and Secondary Schools In beginning his illuminating treatment of the Holy Roman Empire, Lord Bryce wrote: "In history there is nothing isolated, and just as to explain a modern act of Parliament, or a modem conveyance of lands, we must go back to the feudal customs of the thirteenth century, so among the institutions of the Middle Ages there is scarcely one which can be understood until it is traced up either to classical or to primitive Teutonic antiquity." This is the first principle for the teacher of history to enforce, as it is the first lesson for the student of history to learn. History offers a third dimension to the superficial area of knowledge that each individual acquires through his own experience. When one boasts that he is not bound by any trammels of the past, he proclaims his own folly, and would, if he could, reduce himself to the intellectual level of the lower animals.
