Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New History of Great Britain Green, like every one else who tries to compress the story of England into' one volume, had to take a selective view; for instance, he emphasized, in some centuries, literary history, in others, social. There are many gaps in his narrative, due to the imperative need of compres sion and to these gaps we owe his singularly full treat ment of other parts of our history. The Short History was not a complete statement it was not meant to be such but it is the account of what struck a man who possessed both knowledge and genius, as being the most important aspects of English History.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Nation: A History When Mr. Green published, nearly thirty years ago, his Short History of the English People, he gained final victory for due attention to social life as one of the most important phases of a nation's history. Since Mr. Green's time almost every aspect of British social devel opment has been made the subject of special monographs. The six volumes on Social England, edited by the late Mr. Trail], embody these researches and represent the joint efforts of a large number of writers to give to the world the salient features of this side of national life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of England, and the British Empire A narrative that takes into account. The expansion of England into Greater Britain necessarily carries the author far afield. To compress the story into a small manual like the present means that the topics to be discussed must be carefully chosen and a mass of interesting and even important materials must be excluded. The type of text-book that attempts to tell the story of national development with a fulness of detail is the despair of the teacher of history: the facts come in such throngs that very few of them are able to make any lastingimpression. The author has striven to avoid this by including such facts only as have seriously affected the course of English history or have definitely contributed to the building of the British Empire. It'is, of course, true that the demands of the narrative have frequently interfered with the con sistent application of this rule, but in the main it has been followed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Britain's Record: What She Has Done for the World Here are those who say that the special and peculiar work which for so long a period it has been the lot Of Britain to perform in the progress and develop ment of the world is now rapidly nearing its completion. Between Rome and Britain in regard to their rise and fall some keen Observers do not hesitate to Show that there are so many close similarities that it is impossible to allow them to pass with scant notice as merely accidents rather than essentials. If, then, it be true - and such a postu late is by no means granted by the present writer - it is assuredly high time, in this year which sees the Corona tion Of our fifth George as King Of England and Emperor Of the vast British dominions beyond the seas, that a momentary halt should be made, so that we can stop to look around, to take stock as it were, to reckon up and assess all that Britain has meant in the advancement of the world, the Spread Of civilisation, the amelioration Of communities and individuals, the inculcation Of those ideals which are regarded as lofty by all serious thinkers and by all who have at heart the welfare Of nations and mankind generally.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Norseman's Views of Britain and the British No doubt a good breed or race has always played an im portant part in the history of mankind. The kings of the different tribes of Goths always claimed to be descendants of Odin. It was the samein Greece with Hercules, and it is so even now in England with the Conqueror. This taste for pedigree, ancient and modern, is the same thing couched in other words. It is a question of race. It matters little whether Odin was the son of a god or not. To descend from him was not the less to be of a good breed, which was accordingly reckoned as something sublime and awe inspiring. There mingles a good deal of this feeling in the present rage for being of good family.' People may not go quite the length of calling a good family something godlike, but there is, at all events, the haze of a halo around it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anglo-Saxon Britain This little book is an attempt to give a brief sketch of Britain under the early English conquerors, rather from the social than from the political point of View. For that purpose not much has been said about the doings of kings and statesmen; but attention has been mainly directed towards the less obvious evi dence afforded us by existing monuments as to the life and mode of thought of the people themselves. The principal object throughout has been to estimate the importance of those elements in modern British life which are chiefly due to purely English or Low Dutch influences.
