A History intended for schools should be so arranged sa toconvey to the mind of the pupil, at a glance, a clear and definiteknowledge of events, with their causes and effects. The Histories which are usually adopted in our schools arcseldom thoroughly learned by the pupil. The reason is obvious;they contain too many words and too little matter. They areverbose, chaffy and ill-arranged; they are neither topical, chrono-logical nor analytical; in fact, they are wanting nearly everyelement necessary to constitute them good school books. So trueis this, that teachers are compelled to epitomize and re-arrangetheir contents, to secure any degree of success in teaching them. To furnish a Hischoolhistoryofu00henr
