Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New American History and Government Outlines History is the study of the life of a people. "History is the biography of a society." "History is the essence of innumerable biographies." "Through the ages one increasing purpose runs." "The present is the fruit of the past and the germs of the future." "History knows not if, and might have been is a form of words unwritten in her book of phrases." - Ridpath. Europe Before the Discovery of America Peoples supposed to have visited America before 1492: Chinese, Egyptians. Phoenicians and Greeks. Northmen, 1000. Events hindering further visits: Invasions of Goths, Vandals and Huns, 350 to 476. Establishment of new nations. Conquest among nations. Lack of geographical knowledge. Causes leading to a revival of interest in new lands: Commercial ambition. Religious zeal. The crusades. The renaissance. What ancient Europe sent to the East: Metals, wood, pitch, woolen cloth, linen, black lead, wine and glassware. What ancient Europe brought from the East: Silks, cotton cloth and other fine dry goods. Dye woods and drugs. Precious stones and ivory. Spices and perfumes. Cities which controlled trade with the East: Venice, by way of the Mediterranean, the Red Sea and the Indian ocean. Genoa, by way of Bosporus and Black Sea, and then by caravan to the East. Antioch, by way of Euphrates valley and Persian gulf. What changed trade routes: In 1453 the Turks captured Constantinople and refused to let the ships of other nations pass through the Bosporus. This closed Genoa's route, gave Venice a monopoly and made a new route desirable. New routes tried: Passage around Africa by Diaz, a Portuguese sailor, who succeeded in sailing around the south cape, which he named Cape of Storms, but the name was changed to Cape of Good Hope by King John of Portugal. Columbus' plan: To sail west until he reached China or India. "The great canon of history is its continuity."

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 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.

Download or read book The Government of the New England States Classic Reprint written by Wilson Ryder Butler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 170 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. Most of these text-books have attempted to cover the United States, and, therefore, in the treatment of all except the federal government, have been obliged to limit themselves to generalities. Those which have dealt with the government of a single State have proved unsatisfactory because of their tendency to leave the pupil with a narrow and imperfect view of his own local and State government.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States Government: Its Organization and Practical Workings The cause which suggested the publication of this book was my per sonal observation of a lack, 'ou the part of many persons, of a proper knowledge of the Government of the United States. I have observed many times that but few persons, in comparison, are acquainted with the most general provisions of the Constitution of the United States, and the terms of the Declaration of Independence. Hoping that the matter in this book may prove so interesting as to attract the notice of a considerable number, I have incorporated those two immortal documents, with a view of increasing the num ber who will have a better knowledge of them. It may not have been suggested to the ordinary reader that those documents are found printed in but few books. Youths in the schools should read and study them, and also the contents of this book, for there can be no higher study for the rising generation than that of the Government under which they live, and will be soon called upon to maintain and perpetuate by their aid and influence.
