Book Description
Excerpt from Outlines of Ancient History From the Earliest Times to the Fall of the Roman Empire in the West, A D. 476 The present volume is one of a series of three Outline Histories, projected by the Syndics of the Cambridge University Press. Of the scope and aim of the book I have written in the Introduction; but I have a few further remarks to make, which seem to belong rather to a preface. The vastness of the period which my work covers naturally precludes any claim to high originality on my part; compelled, as I have been, to rely largely on the labours of others, I have endeavoured to use my best judgment in the choice of authorities and my utmost care and conscientiousness in the use of them. Wherever my own reading has made it possible, I have exercised an independent judgment; and, on some sections, where my own knowledge fell short, I have enjoyed the invaluable assistance of friends. That I have avoided all errors and partial statements is more than I dare hope: for all such sins of omission and commission I can only ask for a merciful judgment. I must not close without discharging the pleasant duty of acknowledging obligations, both to men and books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Outlines of Ancient History: From the Earliest Times to the Fall of the Western Roman Empire, A. D. 476 It is a very general complaint that the Manuals of History put into the hands of students are dry and uninteresting. The complaint is not unfounded. Such introductory works are too often mere crowded inventories of events, and so not only fail awakening an intelligent interest in what should be the most engaging of studies, but repel and dishearten the student. If this fault has been avoided, and the narrative is connected and interesting, still the perspective is almost sure to be false id misleading, and the picture of early times foreshortened and distorted. Usually all that lies back of Grecian annals is compressed into a few pages, where everything is lost - or rather brought into being - in a sort of creative nimbus. Indeed, in several works in extensive use in our schools, that vast background is treated as a kind of Hyperborean region, being filled indiscriminately with all manner of myths and legends, until there is no more rational connection between the story thus told of the men and agencies of those early times and the history of later periods than exists between the double writings of the palimpsest. One of our objects, then, in preparing the present volume is to join hands with those who are laboring to turn that period to use in education, and give it that character and prominence in the manual which it has assumed in the larger works of all our best historical scholars. Moreover, we conceive History to be a worthier thing than a trivial record of court intrigues and genealogies.
