Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American History and Government: A d104-Book on the History and Civil Government of the United States It is safe to say that a very large proportion of our pupils leave school without becoming sufficiently familiar with our system of government. The curriculum of the high school is crowded. New subjects are constantly being introduced for one reason or another, and this tends to the undue crowding of the course of study and to bringing into the high school many subjects that properly belong to the college. The result is that time is not allowed for the thorough drilling and for the supplementary reading on those subjects in which some solid elementary knowledge should be expected of all the pupils in our public schools.

Download or read book The Civil Government of the United States Revised Classic Reprint written by Asahel Norton Fitch and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil Government of the United States (Revised) A new educational work, should, in itself, plainly indicate the excuse for its existence. Especially is this true of a textbook upon Civil Government, since the subject has been already so well treated in the various works now in daily use. Probably no one at this time doubts the propriety of giving the study of Civil Government a prominent place in our schools. Some of the pupils in the school rooms to-day will, in a few years, be occupying public positions of responsibility and power; and while these maybe comparatively few in number, yet in this country every citizen has political duties to perform, and should therefore be familiar with the plan and workings of the government which imposes them. Hence it remains only a question as to the manner in which the subject may be most effectively presented for the purposes of instruction. Those who, as teachers, have heard their classes in Civil Government complain that the subject was dry and uninteresting, need only consult their own recollections to know the justice of such complaints. It certainly is not possible to invest the subject with the charms of romance, or give it the thrilling interest of a History of the Crusades or the Conquest of Mexico. But it has seemed possible for a text-book upon Civil Government to be made so readable that it will invite and hold the attention of the pupil, instead of being the passive object of compulsory study. To accomplish this has been the aim in the preparation of this work. Our government being representative, the popular will controls, through these channels of representation, the intermediate political subdivisions, and finally asserts itself in the power of the Federal Government.

Download or read book History and Government of the United States for Evening Schools Classic Reprint written by William Estabrook Chancellor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Government of the United States, for Evening Schools The purpose of this textbook is not only to present intern esting and instructive accounts of our American history and of our political institutions, but also to introduce the superior students of evening schools to some of the fundamental prin. Ciples of our social and business conditions. The maturity of such students in years and in experience necessitates a presentation of American a airs decidedly different from that in ordinary day-school textbooks. An experience of many years in several cities in teaching this important subject in evening classes has led me to prepare a text that is somewhat unlike any other both in its nature and in the range of its topics. Intending to deal with matters that the evening-school student desires and needs to know, I have assumed that the reading and study of the text would be accompanied by skill ful supplementary instruction by the zealous teachers of these interesting classes. The especial value of American history and civil govern ment in evening schools is due to two facts: that many of the students are foreign-born or children of the foreign-born, aux ious to know the story of our country; and that most of them will soon be voters, who ought to know at least as much as these pages contain. Of these students, few have attended day school long enough to reach courses in American history. I have known many cases where foreigners entered city even ing schools within a day or two of their arrival. This text is one of several in a series successfully used in many cities. It is now presented in a thoroughly revised edition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of the New England States All agree that in a republic like ours there is urgent need that every citizen know something of the government under which he lives, something of its functions, of its history, of the principles underlying it, and, particularly, of his personal relation to it. There is also universal agreement that this study of government and this training for citizenship should form one of the important branches of study in our elementary schools. This is evidenced by the trend of the discussions heard at educational meetings and among citizens generally throughout the country, by the appointment of committees by educational societies to consider courses and methods in the subject, by the organization of civic leagues for the express purpose of promoting civic instruction in our schools, and by the appearance of many elementary text-books designed for use in the grammar schools.

Childs and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Topical Analysis of American History and the U. S. Constitution With Numerous Review Questions and References The time has probably passed when it is needful to argue in favor of the topical method of teaching history and civil government as against the memoriter method. The topical plan of studying is the only one which men pursue in business or in professional life, and the earlier one becomes accustomed to it the better. For many years, the original manuscript of the Constitution was kept folded up in a tin box, in an obscure corner of the library of the Department of State at Washington, while the Declaration of Independence, mounted in elegant style, was exposed to the admiring gaze of the many visitors. The librarian has recently mounted the Constitution in a similar way, because of the growing demand to see the instrument. This incident is typical of the change which the last few years have seen in our way of looking at American history. The popular interest, which was formerly centered in the more dramatic eras of Colonial and Revolutionary times, is now being extended to our Constitutional period. This period has little picturesqueness, yet it is capable of being, to a thoughtful American mind, the most interesting and valuable portion of history. The object of this manual is to encourage a systematic study of the history and government of the United States, and to promote good citizenship, for, in a republic, "good citizenship is next to godliness."

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of New York, Its History and Administration To understand the political system under which we live, we must study not only the Federal govern ment of the United States, but the government of our own State. In 'many respects the State govern ment comes into closer and more vital relations to us than does the national government. The most important interests of our daily life - our personal liberty and security, the peace of our homes, our property, our health, our education - are all largely under the protection or supervision of the State. So too, our most ordinary political duties have to do either with the affairs of the State itself, or with va rious matters connected with the subdivisions of the State - the affairs of the county, the town, the vil lage, or the city. These are matters which concern every citizen. To know how they are managed, and how they ought to be managed, is necessary to every one who expects to have a share in the rights and duties of citizenship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An American History The history of the United States is unique in that it relates definitely to the growth of the American nation, and to the ability of this people to subdue and control the forces of natural environment. It is not a chronicle of the political and military development of a country. For this reason, it has been necessary to note specifically in this text the forces that have brought into existence this new nation. These forces are: First, the many nationalities that have helped to form this composite people; second, the European influences that have molded a tolerant and liberal-minded state; and third, the adjustment of old world civilization upon new-world environment. To this end, we find that the study of American history must include: First, the land itself; second, the relation of the European background to American history; third, the adjustment of ideals of religion, government, education, and industry to a primitive country; and fourth, the rela tions of this country in international questions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Republic and Its Government: An Analysis of the Government of the United States With a view to this larger study of American politics, and as leading up to it, it seems to me necessary to recog nize that between the field for the elementary text-books in Civics and that of the advanced classes in the universi ties that call for special and extensive study in works like that of Mr. Bryce, there is an intermediate field. My effort has been to fill this gap, to provide an intermediate book for advanced courses ln-high schools or for elemen tary courses in the colleges. It is believed that in this field of Civics there are classes of students well prepared for more advanced work than is ordinarily pursued in high schools, whose interest will be more easily and effectively aroused and sustained by a somewhat elaborate discussion of the more important subjects in the study of the American Government and its principles. For this purpose it seems better to present more extensive treatment of fewer subjects than to reconsider the great variety of miscellaneous topics usually contained in the books on elementary Civics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Federal Government: An Elementary Treatise on the Civil Government of the United States This book is for the use of students who are sufficiently advanced to take up the study of United States history. It should be used in the higher grades of the elementary schools, or the first year of the high school, or both, ac cording to the course of study pursued. It has been the author's aim to furnish aid to students commencing the study of our national political institutions. Therefore, definite and specific information is given as to the essential features of the Federal system, derived from sources not readily accessible to either teacher or pupil. No attempt has been made to analyze the provisions of the Federal Constitution, or to present controversies as to its construction, but there has been an endeavor to show the actual working of our national government, and to de scribe the same in a manner which can be comprehended by beginners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of Michigan: Its History and Jurisprudence; Also, a Brief Outline of the Government of the United States The object of this work is to supply a want long felt and now fully recognized by the people. Books have been writ ten on the science of government, which have gained admit tance into our schools; and many of our youth have, in this way, acquired much valuable information. They have learned some of the first lessons of civil government, and have been made acquainted with an outline of the government of the United States, but as yet they have not been supplied with that information concerning our own State Government, and our own responsibilities and duties so important to enable us to act well our part as citizens. If the succeeding pages of this work shall serve to impart a knowledge of our civil jurisprudence, and of the framework and machinery of our State Government, if they shall furnish an insight into our political institutions, then surely it will inspire in the hearts of those who study them, a devotion to those institutions; and the more we know of them, the more shall we admire the wisdom and appreciate the statesmanship of the great and good men whose business it was to lay broad and deep the foundations upon which we, as a State, have built and are building. The demand for a second edition, within two months from the time when the first was issued, has encouraged the author to revise the work. It is hoped that the historical sketch, and other matter which has been added to this edition, will greatly enhance its value and usefulness as a text-book.
