Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Young Folks Library: Selections From the Choicest Literature of All Lands

To participate in those glorious deeds is not given to us of a later date; but the agency of letters has pre served the stories of them for our enduring delight.

What pleasure to a child to read the experiences of Caesar as he daily described them amidst all the duties and dangers of his campaigns, or to read in his own words of the perplexity of Columbus when first he noted the deflection of the magnetic needle in his com pass. It is even a pleasure to read how men like Layard and Schliemann have dug in the earth among ruins of past empire to add to the world's information.
