[EAN: 9781330562642], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from English History in Short Stories This little book is not designed to be a History of England. It is, first, a compendium of facts about England, its history, government, and antiquities, - facts which all English-speaking people ought to know, and which are not readily accessible to those Americans who do not have good libraries at hand. It contains, secondly, a series of sketches of each of the English monarchs; not histories of their reigns or complete biographies, but estimates of the historical importance of each. The English kings previous to the Hanoverians are the central figures of English history. The dates and other facts here given have been collated with the greatest care. The intelligent reader need not be informed that Freeman, J. R. Green, Pearson, and others are entirely reconstructing English history, and fresh estimates of men and events are resulting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Excerpt from English History in Short StoriesAs an Appendix to our work, we present brief descriptive sketches of the counties of Great Britain and Ireland, the names of which recur continually in history. Much of the information we there give can be found in any good gazetteer but thousands'' of readers have no access to gazetteers, and of American school geographies we know of none which gives any thing but the most meagre out line of British geography.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
