Reseña del editor
In the preparation of this text, the primary aims have been to show that a colony is one stage in the evolution of civilization and self-government; to show, by a brief sketch, the part taken in colonization by the nations of antiquity and by the municipalities of medieval times; to give a more comprehensive account of the work in colonization of the modern nations; to point out very briefly the principal steps in the development of the accepted colonial policy of to-day; to explain what this policy is; and to show that it is the result of the progress of civilization. All that is deemed necessary and that is within the grasp of high-school pupils on the preliminary and fundamental work on colonies and colonial government before studying the history and development of colonization, is given in the first five chapters. As the subject of Colonial History in the high-school course follows General History, United States History, and Civics, no more of the subject matter presented in those studies has been given than was considered essential to give continuity to the special subject of Colonial History. Chapters XVI and XVII are to be regarded as suggestive, as the topics considered are rather more topics of the times than history. The present possessions of the modern nations are placed at the close of the chapters for convenient reference during the study of the chapters. The government of the minor colonies is given for reference. It is not expected that the pupils will study these details of control of the lesser possessions except in some cases for comparison.
