Excerpt from The Old World Through New World Eyes: The Development of the Orient and Central Europe and Great Britain
To learn the Mississippi thoroughly, take it at its source in Itaska Lake, float down its stream examining its shores and all th co fluents that make up the volume of the current that finally empties into the gulf at the Balize: So, to understand the current of history, commence at Egypt by he Nile, wh re was the earliest civilization, travel through Syria and Turkey, thence to Greece and to Italy; so down through the states of Europe to Great Britain, where it widens into a mighty and final development: this is to study the course of civilization from the shores of the Mediterranean in the Orient, where our earliest development took place, coming down topographically and chronologically to the most modern states. This is to travel with a plan, and enables the reading and studious traveler to observe systematically and philosophically, so as to derive the highest good from the pleasures and labors of seeing the Occident and Europe. This was the course of the author, who now submits the results to your kind and tolerant attention.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the development of the Orient and Central Europe, from the Far East to the British Isles. The author takes a chronological and geographical approach, beginning with the earliest civilizations along the Nile River in Egypt and following the spread of ideas, innovations, and empires across the continents. The book examines the rise and fall of great powers, the influence of religion and philosophy, and the impact of trade and commerce on the development of human societies. The author argues that the history of the Orient and Europe is a story of continuous exchange and interaction, and that the modern world is the product of a long and complex process of cultural and intellectual cross-fertilization. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
