Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Elementary History of England: With Illustrations, Tables, Maps, and Plans
There has been a tendency of late on the part of our text-book writers, especially the more scholarly of them, to fill their books, even for the elementary schools, with bibliographies of books of such a difficult nature as to be read only by grown people. It has been the Object Of the authors of this book to put under the head of Topics at the end Of each chapter a list Of easy fiction. This will be the only kind Of reading the pupils can do, if they have any time to do reading at all. Even some of this fiction will prove difficult for the average pupil, but it is put in with the hope Of training a few to read some of the best historical fiction.
