Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln The assertion that history is ´rarely more than the biography of great men´ would not be likely to win universal acceptance in these times. We have come to see that an adequate study of any period of history necessitates a keen realization of many factors which deal with the economic, moral, and religious life of the community. The life-conditions of the people of any country are much more important than facts connected with the lives of Emperors, Kings, and Presidents, and it often happens that these conditions cannot be summed up in the lives of those who occupy the seats of the mighty. Certain it is that the close study of history demands much more than knowledge of the lives of great men. At the same time it must ever be remembered that the lives of the really great do form an important element in the period in which they lived. They ought not, therefore, to be treated with indifference. Their careful study may give us the clue to certain events which but for them might elude us.
