Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pocket Date Book, or Classified Tables of Dates: Of the Principal Facts, Historical, Biographical, and Scientific, From the Beginning of the World to the Present Time Chronological accuracy is indispensable to the profitable study of history. The multiplication of manuals of chronology may perhaps be accepted as an indication that this is beginning to be generally understood. And if so, it is certainly a sign of genuine progress in popular education. A similar conclusion I might be drawn from a comparison of the manuals of the present day with those of even the last generation, in which few of the dates are correct, and pure legend is put on a level with history. Facility of reference in extensive manuals in which events are arranged in order of time, can be attained only by means of alphabetical indexes. And manuals of an encyclopædic character must be arranged alphabetically. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
