Excerpt from A Short History of Early Peoples to 1500 A. D: From Cave-Man to ColumbusMany schools have decided that, for some of their students at least, they must abandon Ancient history or cut down the time formerly given to it. For such schools this volume pre sents the essentials of Ancient and Medieval times in compact form for a half-year course in the ninth school-year.My aim has been to select topics that make the past live again, and that at the same time permit a continuous story and prepare best for the study of our modern period. The book is an intro duction to such a volume as my Story of Modern Progress in the tenth year, for students who give three half-years to Euro pean history. The text is enriched with many new illustrations and reading references, and exercises have been selected with the brevity that befits so short a course.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
