Book excerpt: Excerpt from Simple Stories From English History for Young Readers Long, long ago the people who lived in this land were the Celts. They came from the far east, and moving to the west, they came at length to the great sea that stopped them from going any farther. Some of them came to dwell in the land in which we now live. They could not read or write, and so they could not leave behind them books to tell us about them. But at the time in which they lived, there were men who lived in other lands, who could both read and write, and these have left writings that tell us much about the Celts. From these writings we learn, that the Celts were tall, strong men, with bright blue eyes, and long fair hair that hung down their backs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English History in Short Stories This little book is not designed to be a History of England. It is, first, a compendium of facts about England, its history, government, and antiquities, - facts which all English-speaking people ought to know, and which are not readily accessible to those Americans who do not have good libraries at hand. It contains, secondly, a series of sketches of each of the English monarchs; not histories of their reigns or complete biographies, but estimates of the historical importance of each. The English kings previous to the Hanoverians are the central figures of English history. The dates and other facts here given have been collated with the greatest care. The intelligent reader need not be informed that Freeman, J. R. Green, Pearson, and others are entirely reconstructing English history, and fresh estimates of men and events are resulting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From English History: From B. C. 55 to A. D. 1901 IN writing this book an endeavor has been made to interest boys and girls in English history by stories of some of its great events and of some of the great men who adorn its pages. This aim being kept steadily in view throughout, it seemed right to select certain important incidents and characters, and to deal with them in some detail and in as interesting a way as possible, rather than to load the pages with a multitude of names and dates, in the vain effort to crowd into a few pages a continu ous history which should be at once full and inter esting. Yet it is believed that no important events or personages have been entirely neglected, while particular attention has been directed toward those of chief significance to American boys and gifls.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of England Thirdly, I have clung pretty closely to the thread of English history, only introducing mention of other countries when their connection with England was especially close. Since England's story is so long and so eventful, I have felt that it had better here be told as simply, clearly, and continuously as possible, for its own sake, rather than to complicate it by including many facts drawn from the history of other countries.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings in English History From Original Sources, Vol. 3 The day is past when History is looked upon as a dry and uninteresting study. Nothing, when pro perly taught, can be more interesting, dramatic, intensely luminous, and at the same time useful. Taking our own rough island story, what do we learn therein? We get to know who and what were the peoples that have made up the present British race: how and under what struggles our forefathers won the civil and religious liberties that we now enjoy: how and under what conditions the various steps in our social progress were made: how grew the Empire over which waves the Union Jack, and on which the sun never sets History therefore becomes a part of practical politics; for in it we can learn from the mistakes and successes of the Past how, to a certain extent, to regulate matters of the Present. The question has often been asked actually, and, perhaps, more often inwardly, How do we know all these things?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings From English History My aim in compiling these books of historical extracts is a very simple and practical one. The teaching of English History is spreading fast through our schools; but it can hardly be said as yet to have become a popular subject of study among their scholars. In fact, if I may trust my own experience, a large proportion of boys and girls turn from it as "hard," "dry," and "uninteresting." I cannot say that the complaint is a groundless one. In their zeal to cram as many facts as possible into their pages, the writers of most historical text-books have been driven to shut out from their narratives all that gives life and colour to the story of men. History, as we give it to our children, is literally "an old almanack;" and is as serviceable as an old almanack in quickening their wits or in rousing their interest No doubt wiser books will come in time; but meanwhile those teachers who care to appeal to more valuable faculties than that of mere memory are hard put to it to find a remedy for the "dryness" of history.
