Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Student's History of Illinois
The author's experience in teaching Illinois History for the past dozen years justifies the belief that he knows what may be omitted and what Should be included in a good text on Illinois History. The revised edition will have the advantage of this knowledge.
Maps and illustrations in history texts are valuable in proportion to what they reveal of the real historic move ment. In this age of illustrated literature and travel, the need of pictures in history texts has greatly decreased. This theory is the justification for the omission of many pictures which appeared in the first edition.
