History is one. The ages are all united. Assyria, Babylon, Egypt, Palestine, Greece, Rome, Holland, France, Spain, Ger many and England, all have to do with the practical life of Americans to-day. Lessons of importance can be learned from each of them to help us act intelligently in perform ance of the duties devolved upon us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has been well said, There is no romance like the romance of history. Indeed in a large sense history is romance; for life itself is strange and mysterious; and all its happenings are filled with dramatic elements which need but the touch of imagination to glow, as the dull carbon ?ashes into light when quickened by the electric current.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Publisher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
