Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of England for Junior Classes In drawing up these outlines of English History for junior classes, it has been my object to produce a readable and connected narrative of the most important events in the history of our country, without any political, theological, or ecclesiastical bias, which dis figures so many of our school histories, and renders them unsuitable to F be put into the hands Of the young. For this reason I have confined myself as much as possible to a simple statement of facts, from which the readers, if they are sufficiently thoughtful, or are guided by intelligent teachers; may draw their own lessons and inferences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Arthur's History of England Though I have not the happiness to be a mother, my love of children has led me to think a good deal about them. Their amusements, and their lessons. This little history was written for a real little arthur, and I have endeavoured to write it nearly as I would tell it to an intelligent child. I well remember what I wanted to be told myself, in addition to what I found in my lesson-book, when I was first allowed to read the History of England, and I hope I have answered most of the questions I recollect to have wished to ask. I may have failed in satisfying the almost bound less inquiries of intelligent children; and I could wish that the mother or governess, who may put this little book into the hands of her pupils, would read each chapter herself before she gives it to a child, that she may be ready with answers to such questions as the chapter may suggest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child's History of England, And, No Thoroughfare: With Introduction, Critical Comments, Notes, Etc Thus the book is not educational. It may be said that a child does not need to be taught the meaning of events, but only to learn (probably he will never learn more) about Alfred and the cakes, about the curfew-bell, Perkin Warbeck, Mary and Elizabeth, Fair Rosamond, the death of Charles I., the coming of the Prince of Orange, Jane Shore, and so on. Scientific writers on education may argue the point, but probably Dickens did not aim at a school-book. He wanted to interest (nor is it useful to write history which does not interest) and to propagate his own ideas, which are not historical, but are always op posed to cruelty and oppression. It is superfluous to point out errors. Dickens denies to the early Celtic people of the island the use of coins: they made no coins. One appeals to Sir John Evans and the museums. Had Kent a white horse for standard before the English invasion? The neighings of the wild white horse are not British, in the Idylls of the King. Did the Druids erect Stonehenge, keeping the people out of sight while they made these buildings, which demanded the labour of a whole population? What hills in Scot land are supposed to be the cairns of the Caledonians who fell in resisting Agricola? Who supposes that they had this origin?

This book was released on 2017-01-07 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child's History of England; American Notes; Pictures From Italy; Miscellanies In the old days, a long, long while ago, before Our Saviour was born on earth and lay asleep in a manger, these Islands were in the same place, and the stormy sea roared round them, just as it roars now. But the sea was not alive, then, with great ships and brave sailors, sailing to and from all parts of the world. It was very lonely. The Islands lay solitary, in the great expanse of water. The foaming waves dashed against their cliffs, and the bleak winds blew over their forests; but the winds and waves brought no adventurers to land upon the Islands, and the savage Islanders knew nothing of the rest of the world, and the rest Of the world knew nothing of them. It is supposed that the Phoenicians, Who were an ancient people, famous for carrying on trade, came in ships to these Islands, and found that they produced tin and lead; both very useful things, as you know, and both produced to this very hour upon the sea-coast. The most celebrated tin mines in Cornwall are, still, close to the sea. One of them, which I have seen, is so close to it that it is hollowed out underneath the ocean; and the miners say, that in stormy weather, when they are at work down in that deep place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Survey of British History: Comprising an Analysis and Commentary With Appendices Illustrative of the Points of Contact Between Great Britain, Her Colonies and Foreign Nations The original germ of the following compilation was a very short and simple analysis of a period of history made for the benefit of a class of small boys preparing for the Oxford Local Juniors Examination. In the course of a few years other periods were added, until a fairly complete analysis of the history of England had been obtained, sprinkled with a few occasional notes on points of the first importance. This was subsequently compared with and checked by several of the best school text-books, and expanded by information drawn from a variety of sources. When the material thus accumulated began to grow somewhat unwieldy, it occurred to me that I had perhaps got together a collection of notes which might save much time and trouble for others who were interested in the subject. An expert who was consulted was good enough to confirm this impression, and the result is now before the reader.

This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old English History for Children With regard to the spelling of old-english names, I must plead guilty to a certain amount of inconsistency. My own feeling is in favour of always using the genuine spelling of the old names rather than the common Latin and French corruptions. But I find that many people are in a manner frightened at the unusual form which is thus given to names still in common use. I have therefore, somewhat at the ex pense of consistency, left some of the more common names, such as Alfred, Edward, and Edith, in their modern spelling; while other names which are less familiar to modern readers, and which often have no One generally received modern shape, I have left in their ancient form. On the subject of old-english names and on one or two points connected with the old-english language I have added a few remarks at the end of this Preface.
