4.9/5 (23706 ratings)

Description:The object of the following series of historical sketches is to give young readers some idea of the way in which the torch of history has been handed on in Europe from age to age and from nation to nation, beginning in ancient Greece, and coming down to modern Germany, where, with Luther, modern history may be said to begin. With this object, the writer has selected out of each of the great epochs some representative man or woman whose life was capable of forming an interesting story, taking care to connect the different sketches as far as was possible without introducing too much detail.It is perhaps scarcely necessary to say that the series does not profess to include all the "torch-bearers" of the long period which it covers; but it was thought better to omit some, who would necessarily have been included in a complete series, rather than to run the risk of confusing or wearying the young readers for whom the book is intended.In the present edition, historical maps have been added at the end.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
