Excerpt from Brief History of Rome
The first part of this book, taken from the Brief History of Ancient Peoples, gives a résumé of Roman history, manners, customs, arts, literature, architecture, religion, etc.
In accordance with the modern method of historical teaching, the political portion is limited to the important events, that room may be made for some account of the life of the people.
The divisions on Civilization and Manners and Customs are by Mrs. J. Dorman Steele. Their aim is to give prominence to the fact that the people of history were men and women subject to the same hopes, fears, joys, and sufferings as ourselves, and thus to study their various fortunes in the spirit of human sympathy, rather than of statistical information.
