Book Description
Excerpt from Notes on Ancient Britain and the Britons This little Work has grown out of a collection for a Course of Lectures on "Ancient Britain and the Britons." If I have cast any new light on the subjects under hand, it has been by a careful use of my little knowledge of the British language, which I believe Antiquaries have too often neglected.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Entrance: British History Notes I. The Ancient Britons were the people who inhabited the country now called Britain, before the beginning of the Christian era. They were a brave and hardy race, living on flesh and milk, and dress ing in the skins of animals. They were divided into many tribes, but in times of danger all united under a common leader. Their religion was called Druidism, and their priests, known as Druids, were really the rulers of the people. They wor shipped one God, but such objects of nature as the sun, the moon, and the oak, shared their veneration. They offered many human sacrifices.

Excerpt from History of the Ancient Britons, From the Earliest Period to the Invasion of the Saxons, Vol. 1 Neither do the geography and topography of Britain enter more than incidentally into the plan of the present work. These are subjects which require a separate consideration; and, as our knowledge of them is remarkably little, they cannot fail to cause the student no small labour and distraction of mind. In the vo lume of Historical Documents, are given those portions of the ancient geographers, Ptolemy and others, together with the extracts from the Notitia Imperii, and Itinerarium Antonini, which concern the history of Britain.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Ancient Britons: A Tale of Primeval Life The. Historical notices of the ancient British period are few and meagre; and consequently the attempt to give both a striking and truthful picture of British society has proved one of some difficulty. For to de lineate faithfully, and yet graphically, the wise Druid, the fierce British warrior, the daring hunter, and fiie unhappy slave, as each appeared in weal or woe, in war or peace, at home or abroad, requires a much larger amount of historic knowledge of the early inhabitants of this island, than has been transmitted to the present age.

Book Description
Excerpt from A New History of Great Britain Green, like every one else who tries to compress the story of England into' one volume, had to take a selective view; for instance, he emphasized, in some centuries, literary history, in others, social. There are many gaps in his narrative, due to the imperative need of compres sion and to these gaps we owe his singularly full treat ment of other parts of our history. The Short History was not a complete statement it was not meant to be such but it is the account of what struck a man who possessed both knowledge and genius, as being the most important aspects of English History.
