Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from A General Sketch of Political History From the Earliest Times History is apt to present itself, not only to the youthful mind, as a haphazard collection of events grouped round a few interesting personalities, the groups of events being unconnected. A stage in advance of this is reached when we realise that English or Roman or Greek history is the story of the progress of a nation in which interesting personalities play only a part. At a third stage we discover that all history is the story of the progress of the human race, in which individual nations play only a part; that the separate histories are not isolated, but act on and are acted on by others; that the history of one period is the outcome of the preceding ages, as the history of the future will be the outcome of the history of the present. This conception of the unity of history as a whole is needful to the right understanding of our own or any other specific history; and an acquaintance, sound so far as it goes, with the ground plan of general history is exceedingly helpful to the conception. The aim of this work is to present such a ground-plan 'sound so far as it goes, ' which may enlarge the horizon of the student without such a multiplication of details as will 'prevent him from seeing the wood for the trees.'

Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Political Literature, Vol. 2: From the Earliest Times We now approach an epoch in the history of political literature, of an altogether different cast from what we have hitherto noticed. This is a period of remarkable mental activity; and books of politics, of every variety of form and matter, press upon us from all sides, and solicit our attention and criticism. There are three great leading events, besides several minor ones, which come across the path of this historical portion of political science, and which gave a remarkable impetus to the spirit of mental inquiry generally; but particularly to matters connected with the civil rights and privileges of mankind. These events are the Protesant Reformation; the Revival of Letters in Europe; and the Discovery of Printing. These are, conjointly, of such a weighty and comprehensive character, and their ramifications and bearings on the intellectual pursuits and social condition of mankind are so various, that they eclipse or overshadow all the other mere secondary causes which mingle themselves with the general results.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Compend of History, From the Earliest Times, Vol. 1: Comprehending a General View of the Present State of the World, With Respect to Civilization, Religion, and Government; And a Brief Dissertation on the Importance of Historical Knowledge A strong impression that the study of history has been too much neglected as a part of school education, has long induced the author to wish for the appearance of something which might deserve the title he has affixed to this work; and of course be proper to be read in schools. And he trusts, in all cases where the critic has learning and benevolence, he will allow the end to be laudable, and of course. Will be disposed to look with lenity on the various deficiencies of the means. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
