Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to American History: European Beginnings This volume has been prepared to meet the need of the sixth grade of the grammar school for a short and simple introduction to the history of the United States. It has followed in essential particulars the recommendations of the Committee of Eight of the American Historical Association for such an introduction. English history has been made the basis of the narrative, wherever possible, in the belief that England furnishes for us the simplest illustration of that development of European culture which should form the background of an intelligent study of our own history. In these respects the present volume resembles the author's earlier book, "European Beginnings of American History," from which, indeed, much of the material has been drawn. A few words of explanation and suggestion as to the use of the book may not be amiss. The chapters are of varying length and are often unusually long for a book of this grade, but it is believed that the sections will, in most cases, prove suitable for a lesson. The questions are rarely based directly upon the subject matter of the chapter to which they are appended and can seldom be answered by a reference to it. They either contain a back reference, or are designed to bring the past into some relation with our life of to-day and to stimulate outside research into subjects related to the matter in hand; and the field of inquiry, it is hoped, will include not only dictionaries, encyclopedias, geographies, and histories, but the more lively and intimate resource of "grown-up" information, as well. The summaries at the beginnings of the chapters contain the subjects upon which the pupil should have definite knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to American History: European Beginnings America. Of this distinction Miss Atkinson has been clearly con scious, and she has consistently viewed England not for its own sake but as our simplest and most elementary illustration of that general development of European culture which must form the background of an intelligent study of our own history. Miss Atkinson has had always before her those salutary warnings which Professor Johnson has'so comprehensively stated in his admirable pamphlet on History in the Elementary Schools. She has sedulously omitted everything which she could not treat in sufficient detail to make clear and interesting. I venture to hope that none of those ready but meaningless formulas which invite mere memorizing have slipped in, in spite of our vigilance, and that the form of statement chosen meets in every case the demands both of the pupil's mind and of historic accuracy. But this is 'a great deal to expect. In spite of the necessary limitations it is sur prising to see what a large number of interesting and important matters it has proved possible to compact into the volume, without haste or crowding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of America is a branch of that of Europe. The discovery, exploration, and settlement of the New World were results of European movements, and sprang from economic and political needs, development of enterprise, and increase of knowledge, in the Old World. The fifteenth century was a period of extension of geographical knowledge, of which the discovery of America was a part; the sixteenth century was a time of preparation, during which European events were taking place which were of the first importance to America, even though none of the colonies which were to make up the United States were yet in existence. From the time of the settlement forward, the only population of America that has counted in history has been of European origin. The institutions that characterize the New World are fundamentally those of Europe.

Download or read book Our Ancestors in Europe written by Jennie Hall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Ancestors in Europe: An Introduction to American History It is still generally admitted that the most important history for every child is that of his own country, but happily the old narrow conception of the American story as a thing apart from the rest of the world seems to be rapidly passing. The roots of American civilization are in Europe. Our beginnings and early development form a part of one of the most far-reaching changes of history: the expansion of Europe beyond the ancient limits of the Mediterranean world, the discovery of the American continents, the opening of direct sea routes to India and the far East, the commercial revolution, the first stages of the Europeanization of the world. Only in this larger setting can the history of the United States become really intelligible. If we are to understand our own country and how it came to be what it is, we must know something of the story of our ancestors in Europe and of the heritage we have received from them. It was to serve the purpose of such an introduction to American history that the present volume was planned. The general field and larger topics have been chosen to meet the requirements for the sixth grade prescribed by the Committee of Eight of the American Historical Association, while that freedom in the choice and treatment of details which the Committee itself so wisely urges, has been exercised. The book may also serve its purpose apart from the Committee's course in any of the grammar grades or early years of the "junior high school."
