Excerpt from In Field and Pasture
The stories in this volume are about peoples more advanced than those treated in Book I. The tilling of the soil and the domestication of animals mark a higher stage of progress. It is an interesting fact, and one worth knowing, that there are types of people living to-day much as they did in the time of Abraham, while some of the agricultural peoples are highly civilized.
To some persons it may appear to be of little impor tance for the young child to follow the steps of man's industrial advancement as indicated in these stories. It certainly can do no harm. He may get an inkling of the fact that the complex civilization of to-day has grown up from simple elemental beginnings. Moreover, the out-of door life of the herdsman and the farmer is so universal in its human significance, that it has a place in the social culture of the child.
The hand work to accompany these stories is as inter esting as it is educational, and is already successfully accomplished in progressive schools.
