The Modern World From Charlemagne to the Present Time, 1919 - With a Preliminary Survey of Ancient Times #262014

It is necessary that for the use of the schools textbooks be composed which are calculated, with due regard for truth and without exposing the young students to any pitfalls, to expound and propagate the science of history. Encouraged by these words the authors have undertaken to issue the present work. The book, like F. Betten's Ancient World, aims to furnish an abundance of material much of which is not found in other books accessible to students. From this teachers will make their own selection. Several sections, Chapter VII for instance, are readily recognized as reference matter. These sections may be omitted Whenever a shorter course is desired.
