Excerpt from Bibliography of History for Schools and Libraries: With Descriptive and Critical Annotations

Gross, are limited in range and compiled without particular reference to the needs of teachers in schools or even in the lower college grades, and the general reader and ordinary user of the public library are apt to find themselves lost in the mazes of these heavy special works.

The distinctive features of the present volume are: (1) its comprehensiveness, as covering the whole field of history; (2) its brevity and the selective character of the lists; (3) the classification and arrangement, following the lines of the historical curriculum most in favor at the present day; (4) the annotations, provided in the case of nearly every work listed, describing impartially and critically the character, scope and importance of each; (5) its unique value for the elementary teacher, as containing the only annotated list of history books for children yet published; (6) the cooperative character, being prepared by representatives of the teaching of history in the university, the high school, and the elementary school.

Because of these features, and of the interest manifested in the work during its serial publication in incomplete form, it is believed the Bibliography will supply a real need of teachers both in elementary and secondary schools, and will be useful to college instructors as well; that in the high school and college it may be used to advantage by students in connection with their regular work; and that it will prove service able to the general reader, to the student working alone, and in the public library.
