Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A First Book in American History With European Beginnings
The Committee of Eight of the American Historical Association has recommended the teaching of European Beginnings of American History for the entire sixth grade of our grammar schools, and has outlined a course cover ing the Work.
The author of this book has met the essential require ments of the Committee of Eight, but, believing that a sixth grade child will not make the association between the European Beginnings of our history and our own history, if the two are not given in close connection with out the break of a summer vacation, She has taken the liberty of shortening the time allotted to the study of European Beginnings, and has combined this subject with American history for a year's course.
