This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the United States for Schools The aim of the authors in writing this book has been to present what seemed to them the main historical developments in American history, the knowledge of which will enable the pupil to understand 'he social, political, and economic institutions which he finds about him in this land wherein he lives. In doing this we have tried to use simple language, to show clearly the relation of one fact to another, and to keep the story constantly moving forward. We have sought to interest not by the selection of the merely entertaining facts which are often the things of least value, but by choice of the facts that have meant something in our growth as a nation. This is first of all a text-book and not a story-book. We make no apology for the omission of many of the yarns of American his tory. If history is worth teaching at all, it is worth teaching as causal, vital, meaning history. We heartily approve of reading his tory for mere pleasure. History is, we believe, in many of its high est literary forms, most delightful and valuable mere reading, but for serious study there are certain essentials which should not be disguised or palliated by facts which are only entertaining, and not essentially significant.

Teachers have for some time recognized the fact that the greatest evil of modern education is the waste of brain energy without an adequate result in intellectual development, and experience has taught that in no study is this more true than in the study of history. It has therefore been the object, in the preparation of this book, to remove all such obstacles, yet at the same time to furnish material sufficient for the cultivation and development of the faculties of Observation, Imagination, Reasoning, Judgment, and Memory, as well as Presentation.

Download or read book A History of the United States written by John Frost and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the United States: For the Use of Schools and Academies The utility of history as a branch of school instruction is now so generally admitted, that it is hardly necessary to offer any arguments in its favour; and the necessity of giving the history of our own country the first place, is equally obvious to the reflecting reader. The manner in which this interesting subject should be presented to the mind of the young student, is the only point of inquiry with writers and teachers. In preparing the following history, the author has pursued that course which appeared to him best adapted to unite sound and thorough instruction with entertainment. Beginning with the discovery of the New World, and endeavouring to present the series of events in a clear and connected narrative, rejecting whatever he deemed irrelevant or unimportant, and dwelling chiefly on those striking features of the subject which give it vividness and character, he has brought it down to the present day. Although the considerable period embraced, the multitude of characters and events delineated, and the extent of the field in which they figure, have rendered the preservation of historical unity no easy task, he has laboured to give the work such a degree of compactness as would enable the student to perceive the relation of all it Darts, and to grasp the whole without any very difficult exercise of comprehension. Instead of dividing the history into periods, according to an arbitrary arrangement of events, he has chosen to adopt the ordinary system of chapters, founded on the natural divisions of the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Republic: A History of the United States for Grammar Grades It is presumably the object of every author of such a book to show properly the trend of our country's devel opment - how colonies grew into States, and they in turn into a united nation; to show, furthermore, how the people have lived, how the methods of making a liveli hood have been changed by discoveries and inventions, producing new social conditions; and to set forth, in the course of such narrative, the acts of heroism and states manship that are conspicuous in our national biography. Presumably, too, school histories have been written to create an interest in the nation and the duties of citizen ship - to foster patriotism and a sense of civic duty; to fix standards of morality by a comparison of human deeds; and, lastly, to stimulate love of the study itself. These common ideals of the historian and the teacher are fundamental in the present book. But in offering to the schools of the United States a'new book on American history, the authors have considered also certain other conditions to be met.

Mowry, Ph.D: And Arthur May Mowry, A. M. Authors of "a History of the United States for Schools;" The study of the history of our country is every year becoming more and more important. New books for the young on history, biography, and historical fiction are constantly appearing. It is now very generally admitted that this study should be taken up at an earlier age than has hitherto been customary. Everybody now agrees that the schools should have an elementary book preceding the regu lar, systematic pursuit of this branch in the two higher grades of the grammar school. But this preliminary book should not be an epitome of the his tory of our country. It ought not to be a history for more mature pupils, boiled down to the size of a small book for smaller boys and girls. Such a book should have no place in the schools. The bio graphical plan has great advantages for beginners in the study of this subject. History is a record of events. Events presuppose actors, who bring about the events. It is the action of men and women that makes history both valuable and interesting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
