Book excerpt: This book is designed to be used as a supplementary historical reader in our public schools' sixth and seventh grades, as well as for any other students aged twelve to fifteen. It is also intended to be used as supplementary reading in conjunction with the study of a formal textbook on American history. Historical matters that are instinct with human life attract and hold the attention of boys and girls, and whet their desire to know more about the real meaning of their country's history. For this reason, the authors have selected rapid historical narratives, treating notable and dramatic events, and have embellished them with more details than is feasible within the limits of most school books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hero Stories From American History: For Elementary Schools This book is intended to be used as a supplementary historical reader for the sixth and seventh grades of our public schools, or for any other pupils from twelve to fifteen years of age. It is also designed for collateral reading in connection with the study of a formal text-book on American history. The period here included is the first fifty years of our national life. No attempt has been made, however, to present a connected account, or to furnish a birds-eye view, of this half century. It is the universal testimony of experienced teachers that such materials as are pervaded with reality serve a useful purpose with young pupils. The reason is plain. Historical matter that is instinct with human life attracts and holds the attention of boys and girls, and whets their desire to know more of the real meaning of their country's history. For this reason the authors have selected rapid historical narratives, treating of notable and dramatic events, and have embellished them with more details than is feasible within the limits of most schoolbooks. Free use has been made of personal incidents and anecdotes, which thrill us because of their human element, and smack of the picturesque life of our forefathers. It has seemed advisable to arrange the subjects in chronological order. As the various chapters have appeared in proof, they have been put to a practical test in the sixth grade in several grammar schools.

Download or read book Hero Tales from American History Classic Reprint written by Henry Cabot Lodge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hero Tales From American History Nearly thirty years have passed since this volume was published. A long time, these twenty-eight years, in the average human life, although only a moment in the life of a nation. A long time, too, in the life of a book of this kind, despite the fact that this particular book still is fortunate enough to have, as from its day of publication, a steady sale, indicating at least that it has some quality, some real worth, which appeals to the American public. The story of the book itself is both short and simple. The suggestion of the book, as the dedication explains, came from Mrs. Roosevelt, and in consequence of that suggestion the "Hero Tales from American History" were selected and written by the two authors in 1894 and the early part of 1895, before Roosevelt left Washington and the Civil Service Commission to take, on May 7, 1895, the oath of office as Police Commissioner in the city of New York. This explains the absence of any letters relating to the book, because, living as we both did at that time in Washington, we met constantly and planned and prepared the "Tales," and talked over everything connected with them from day to day. We first selected the men and the incidents to be the subjects of the twenty-six stories, of which Roosevelt contributed fourteen and I twelve. The work of selection was by no means easy and involved much thought and care. All the "Tales" were of course historical, as the title declares.

Download or read book American Hero Stories Classic Reprint written by Eva March Tappan and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Hero Stories This volume contains five accounts of voyagers and explorers, ranging from Columbus to Lewis and Clark; stories of five colonies of marked dissimilarity- Virginia, Quebec, Plymouth, New York, and Philadelphia; brief lives of four pioneers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; and fifteen short stories of war times. In treating of our wars, it seemed wisest not to attempt any formal explanation of causes and results, but rather to picture a number of separate and interesting achievements, choosing as far as possible actions that have distinct heroes. The chapters are arranged in chronological order, with a thread of continuity running through them. The aim of the book is to introduce in informal and friendly fashion some of the makers of American history, and to provide a simple, broad foundation for future study of history and biography.
