Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reference History of the United States, for High Schools and Academies A few words of explanation in regard to the scope and plan of this little book are necessary. It has grown out of class-room experience, and has been shaped to the practical needs of the, pupil. It is an attempt to connect history teaching in the second ary school more closely in method and aim with history teaching, and study in the college and in the university. 'in the best institutions the study of history is no longer the study of a text book. The library is the workshop, the best books that have been written are the tools, the teacher is the guide, and the pupil's mind must do the work. It is, comparatively, a simple task to force a boy's memory to retain the minimum of information which will enable him to pass his college examinations; the difficult task is that of aiding him to acquire the mental discipline and the habit of independent work which will sustain him satisfactorily in college work.
