Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of France, Vol. 1 His book was in the press before anyone dreamt that we should be standing beside our traditional enemy on the very battlefields where we have so often confronted her. No alterations have been made to meet the new conditions: history can never be wholly free from bias, but a history of France written or revised during such a crisis as the present would be so biassed as to lose its value. I may, however, be allowed to say how conscious I am that I have overstated the temperamental characteristics, and in particular the temperamental weaknesses, of the French. The truly remarkable way in which, under the present trial, France has purified herself of her traditional vices and developed virtues which were supposed to be quite alien to her character drives one to the conclusion, not only that the temperamental qualities of nations change more rapidly than we have been accustomed to think, but also that they are often only qualities which have been foisted on nations by noisy minorities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of France, Vol. 1 That such a nation should have failed to find a competent En glish historian is strange, and the fact, I presume, is to be ascribed, not to the insular prejudices of English authors, among whom we naturally seek for one (for they have written of particular periods in the French annals both learnedly and well), but to the probable familiarity of the English reading public with the French histo rians themselves, whose labors, to those that' can read them, ren der any other attempts not only unnecessary, but presumptuous. But, if this may have been the case in England, it is certain that in this. Country, where we have no such general acquaintance with French literature, we need a history of France in the English lan guage. Now, as my studies had gradually led me over the whole field of French history, I came to conceive that I might perhaps turn the materials and the knowledge I had collected to some ao count in supplying this need. I will frankly confess, however, that the magnitude of the project frightened me for a long time from Preface to his History of France in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries.

All the more important periods of the history have, as far as pos sible, been written directly from original sources, and are treated at considerable length. The parts between, connecting one stirring time with another, have been treated very brie y, so as simply to carry on the narration without a break: like a road in a dull country between a chain of ancient and historic cities.

Book excerpt: "The History of France " in 6 volumes is a comprehensive account of French history from its earliest beginnings in Gaul to 1789 written by the French historian and statesman François Guizot. According to the author's opinion, there are, in the history of peoples, two sets of causes essentially different, and, at the same time, closely connected; the natural causes which are set over the general course of events, and the unrestricted causes which are incidental. The fated causes and the unrestricted causes, the defined laws of events and the spontaneous actions of man's free agency – herein is the whole of history.
