Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baltimore County, Its History, Progress and Opportunities Responding to requests of many citizens of Baltimore Country for a complete set of the "Towson Snapshots" which have appeared in The Jeffersonian, we take pleasure in presenting this little booklet to you, and trust that you will find it worth preserving. Not only does it give a brief history of the community in which we live and which offers so much in the way of opportunities, but sketches and sidelights of some of our country's most prominent men. You may have heard their names in a political or social way and yet never bad the opportunity of meeting them, and for that reason we have created this work. Baltimore Country has developed some great men within its borders, and there is every reason to believe that some of the younger generation will become even greater and nobler as they take on years, and a reference of this character will be valuable in later periods when you may wish to refresh your memory of days gone by; to review the happenings of your early life and relate the past history of the country to your children and your grand-children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Real Stories From Baltimore County History In its report to the National Education Association the Committee of Eight on the Study of History in the Elementary Schools, appointed by the American Historical Society, said: "Our history teaching in the past has tailed largely because it has not been picturesque enough." If this criticism were justified by the colorless history teaching observed in the presentation of material throughout the grades, doubtless the same truth applies to the teaching of local history, for all too often that which is near and immediate, by virtue of its nearness, loses its romantic quality and becomes prosaic and commonplace fact. It is true that distance does lend a kind of enchantment as well as dignity to what may have been, once upon a time, a commonplace event, but any significant character or event takes on new meaning, may even have a quality of picturesqueness, if placed in its right perspective. Therefore it behooves us to choose such material from out the past experiences of the communities as will interpret the present, and to manifest such skill in method of presentation that local history teaching may not fail "because it is not picturesque enough." The history of any community is the history of the common man, and as there is a constant struggle in adjustment to environment, history is ever in the process of making, is not static, but ever in a fluid state, progressing, changing as time goes on. The aim of local history teaching may then said to be "to make the children more intelligent with respect to the more crucial activities, conditions and problems of present-day life," by selecting those typical activities which serve this purpose. Certain interesting elements indicative of changes constantly taking place appear in the study of every community in which the people should have wholesome pride.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baltimore County, 1929 The present volume on Baltimore County is the eleventh of the series of reports dealing with the physical features of the several counties of Maryland. In it are considerations not only of the geology and mineral resources but also the physiography, soils, climate, magnetic declination, and forests. The Introduction, by Edward W. Berry, consists of an historical review of the development of knowledge concerning the physical features of Baltimore County and a bibliography of the more important maps and reports dealing with the area. It shows that the growth of knowledge has covered a long period of preliminary exploration, begin ning with the work of Captain John Smith and culminating in the refined investigations of the complicated problems of the crystalline rocks of the Piedmont. The earlier work by Tyson and others Without modern technique shows an intuitive understanding of the region of high char acter. The later modern investigations have been by a great many workers, beginning with the classic studies of the late Professor Williams and numerous studies by students at the Johns Hopkins University. The account of The Physiography of Baltimore County by Eleanora Bliss Knopf represents an exhaustive mature investigation of the surface features of the county in connection with the topographic development of the whole terrane bordering the central Atlantic coast, This report is based upon new methods of research and is not only a clear, consistent explanation of the present surface features of Baltimore County but a distinct contribution to the scientific interpretation of the origin of the various terraces and gorges of the Piedmont area extending from New Jersey southward. The Geology of the Crystalline Rocks of Baltimore County by Eleanora Bliss Knopf and Anna I. Jonas represents the results of years of study. The authors undertook this work with a knowledge of the detailed studies and general interpretation of the region by Williams, Mathews.
