Excerpt from First Lessons in American History

The author of this book has endeavored to meet the demand for a simple history Of America, suitable for children of ten to twelve years Of age, many Of whom study no other text on the subject. In order to present a book Of the most value the narrative treats Of men whose influence has been controlling in the destiny of the nation, but does not make Of their lives a series Of hero stories. The facts Of their lives and incidents Of their careers are pre sented in sufficient fullness to reveal their personal traits and aid a pupil to understand their contributions to the current Of events. The facts that are presented in the text are those which appear most important for a child to know. It is sincerely hoped that the style of the narrative is simple enough for pupils of the fourth or fifth grade to read with ease and attractive enough for them to read with pleasure.
