Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the English People, Vol. 1 of 5 IT was a favourite wish of my husband's to see English History interpreted and illustrated by pictures which should tell us how men and things appeared to the lookers-on of their own day, and how contemporary observers aimed at representing them. This new edition of his book is an attempt to carry out such an idea. It has seemed most fitting to choose for the purpose the work of the writer who by the brilliance of his historic imagination has recovered for Englishmen many regions of the past left waste and neglected, and brought to light costly treasures that had long lain hidden in some of its most obscure corners. The Short History, with its vivid realization of all that goes to make up the life of a People, lends itself in a singular way to illustrations which are themselves the work of the people century by century, and the wisdom of the historian is constantly justified as the details of some vivid description, or the significance with which some in cident is clothed, or the new measure and proportion given to facts that before his time were common and despised, are finely emphasized by the work of old scribes or artists to whom all these things were present realities.

He was the author of seven books although History of the English People was arguably one of his finest. Although Green began his career as a clergyman, he was always an enthusiastic student of history. Ultimately he decided to change his chosen profession, quit the clergy and became the librarian at Lembeth. Writing history was always part of his plan and he began straightaway to bringing those plans to fruition. When he undertook the project that resulted in this book, he began with the thought in mind that there were not enough published and reputable materials about the history of England. "For the conquest of Britain by the English our authorities are scant and imperfect." Therefore, he took it upon himself to complete a comprehensive and well sourced document about English history. While completed later in his life, this book (along with his last of his books), were written during a period of ill health. Due to this, his wife, Alice Stopford, helped complete his writing when he was too ill to continue. That means that some of this book is written by her hand as well which makes it an interesting exploration of England and perhaps the first one written by both a man and a woman (although she is not given author credit). Only the reader can determine if Green was truly successful in his quest to achieve a complete work (with verifiable and strong sources) about the life and history of the English People. His work stands the test of time as a monument to the life and dedication of one man, relentless in his quest to pursue his dreams and ultimately make the world a better place.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the English People, Vol. 5: From 1815 to the Present Time Turning to matters of a more tangible kind, we find as great a difference in the England of 1793 and of 1815. The population and resources of the country had grown in those twenty-two years in a measure for which previous history could afford no parallel. The distribution of the newly-gotten wealth was far less satisfactory, and numer ous social problems had grown up which were bound to force themselves upon public attention the moment that the stress of war was removed. In population, the United Kingdom had increased from to souls, in spite of the considerable waste of life in the for eign war and in the Irish troubles of 1797-8.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the People of England, Vol. 1 The plan of the series can be explained in a few words. The early volumes are for children under ten whose study of history can only reach to the kindling of the imagination to realise in some degree how our forefathers lived, and who were the great builders of the mighty structure which is the nation of which they form a part. The middle part of the series is designed for the use of girls and boys of twelve to fourteen, who are at a stage of mental develop ment at which they should be able to trace a thread of continuity, and to connect cause and effect in the great story, which thus, besides giving food for imagination, begins the training of powers of judgment. The Senior books are for the use of those of fifteen and upward, able now to begin to weigh evidence, to ponder on the significance of facts, to cultivate the gift of historical thinking, which is better than historical learning.
