Book Description

Excerpt from How to Teach American History: A Handbook for Teachers and Students This volume 1s intended for use as a textbook in normal schools, teacher-training classes, and teachers' institutes, and as a handbook for the teacher and stu dent in school or at home. The principles discussed are believed to be true Of history in general, but the application throughout has been made to American history and to the study and teaching of history in American schools. An effort has been made to have the style simple and intelligible. Technical terms not well settled in common usage have been avoided. A rather close and logical classification by chapters has been attempted, and the book lists have been classified and distributed. It has been my aim throughout to give in the book lists and footnotes information of practical value and to place it where it can be found conveniently. It is hoped that the complete index appended will be found a useful feature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
