The study of Geography is now to a great extent introduced into our schools, but History, its counterpart, is to some extent neglected. The works on Geography now in use, give a description of every part of the known world; but most of those on History, comprise the United States only. The great events of the age in other countries, as well as in our own, affect the destiny of all. Geography and History being closely connected, each ought to be equally comprehensive.
History is a narrative of what has taken place on the earth among human beings, and is considered by many as "Philosophy teaching by example." It opens a vast field for study and contemplation; the rise and fall of empires, the connection of virtuous principles with public happiness, the causes which have degraded individuals and nations, are all subjects worthy of the dose attention of beings destined for immortality.
Works on History have had their usefulness much impaired by the introduction of too many names, dates and details which give no valuable information. The multiplicity of these is apt to confuse the mind, and make the study itself dry and uninteresting. This evil the author has endeavored to avoid.
