Excerpt from Elements of History, Ancient and Modern
As it would be impossible, in a volume of the size of this, to trace a regular series of events relating to all the states and empires that have flourished in the world, the chief attention of the author has been paid to a few of them, - those of which the history is of the greatest importance, particularly to American students, - namely, Greece and Rome in ancient history, and France, England, and the United States, in modern. Brief notices, however, of various other states have been given, and also some short treatises on topics of importance in an introduction to the study of his tory, and useful in preparing the student for the perusal of more extended historical works.

Excerpt from Elements of History, Ancient and Modern
The first edition of this work was published in 1826, accompanied by an Historical Atlas. The Elements of History and the Atlas were designed to be used together each being materially incomplete without the other. But as it is necessary that books used in most of the schools in this country should be furnished at a very low price, the expense of the Atlas was, in many cases, an obstacle to the use of the work; and after the Elements and Atlas had passed through a number of impressions, an edition of the book was prepared in such a form that it might be used without the Atlas. This was accomplished by folding in the volume the Chart of General History, and also by inserting a series of Tables of History, which, in a measure, supply the place of the Charts or Tables of History in the Atlas.
The method of using the work will be found simple and easy. After the student has attended to the three short sections on the Uses, Sources, and Divisions of History, it is recommended that he should study carefully the Chart of History, with the use of the Description, Illustration, and Questions. (See page 333.)
