Excerpt from America in Its Relation to the Great Epochs of History These lectures have been somewhat elastic and hardly given twice alike. Their present form is the last in which they happen to have been moulded. But much is left out which might have been included and ought to be included in order to even approach the ideal of giving a joint-image of all discernable substances included in its scope. And yet perhaps the form as it is will serve to express the thought and the purpose. It is my firm conviction that history ought to be read and studied substantially on the lines here laid down, and that it is not so read and is not so studied in our schools. It seems to me that the culture values of history are of first importance and are sadly lost sight of. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
