Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Young People's History of England
The attempt is made, in this volume, to present clearly and concisely the main facts in the history of England, from the Roman Conquest to the present time. The author has especially had it in mind to show the growth of the political liberties and institutions of the English people; and to indicate, in some degree, in the chapters entitled Progress of the People, the changes in the social condition, and the advance in literature and the arts, of the English between one period and another. It has also been his earnest purpose and endeavor to relate events, and to describe persons, without bias or partiality; to avoid obtruding judgments Of his own on these events and persons; and to leave it to the reader to make up his judgment on the many disputed points in English history, from facts which have been accepted as true on all sides.
