Excerpt from History of England
Some features of the book will, it is believed, be of important assistance in its use. Instead of printed questions, against the use of which there are very grave objections, side-notes have been added, which give a key to the contents of the paragraph in which they are set, but which, nevertheless, require the learner to read carefully the whole text. Several new maps have been prepared to indicate important localities and events, and these maps are rendered specially clear and attractive by the absence of all unnecessary detail. A chronological table of sovereigns, convenient for reference, precedes the. Text and at the close of the work will be found tables of leading histor ical events and of distinguished persons, a list of the British Possessions, the genealogy of English sovereigns, a list of the members of the royal family, and a brief account of the English Government. Outline synopses for review, with tables of con temporaneous history, have been inserted at convenient inter vals, both for practical use and as suggestive models for teacher and pupil. An Index is added, which will be found a ready key to the names of all persons, places, and topics treated in the text.
The present revised edition of the work contains additions giving to portions of the narrative fuller treatment, and adding important matter and detail concerning the mode of life and social customs of the English people. It is believed that this feature will be regarded a valuable one by those who make history a study of the progress of a people.
