Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of Greece, From the Earliest Times to the End of the Persian War, Vol. 1
Considerations of this kind, which must assert themselves at every stage of all historical work, and with pretty nearly equal force, I have finally decided to disregard. Sufficient care is taken that enquiry and criticism shall proceed from one conclusion to another without cessation of their labour: yet. For the basis of science, each of the two factors is equally indispensable if we need to sift the materials in order to establish the facts, we need also to under stand and think of them in combination. It is the interaction of these two factors which discloses the hidden secret; for not only does the whole exist in and through the parts, but from the whole the parts receive their life and light.
