Book Description
Excerpt from History in the Elementary School Of course it is absolutely necessary that the scientific historian shall discover by a rigid method what our social past has really been. The disentanglement of truths from myths is a serious task and must be accomplished relent lessly. But the acceptance of this obligation does not by any means complete the duty of histo rians as a class. Since ordinary men cannot and will not know all that historians do, it is neces sary to choose that which is the more significant in the interpretation of the historic currents which have swept us into our present and will sweep us on to our future.
