A HISTORY OF GREECE
For High Schools and Academies
By *GEORGE WILLIS BOTSFORD*, Ph.D.
_Instructor in the History of Greece and Rome in Harvard University_
8vo. Half Leather. $1.10
"Dr. Botsford's 'History of Greece' has the conspicuous merits which
only a text-book can possess which is written by a master of the
original sources. Indeed, the use of the text of Homer, Herodotus, the
dramatists, and the other contemporary writers is very effective, and
very suggestive as to the right method of teaching and study. The
style is delightful. For simple, unpretentious narrative and elegant
English the book is a model. In my judgment, the work is far superior
to any other text-book for high school or academic use which has yet
appeared. Its value is enriched by the illustrations, as also by the
reference lists and the suggestive studies. It will greatly aid in the
new movement to encourage modern scientific method in the teaching of
history in the secondary schools of the country. It will be adopted by
Stanford as the basis of entrance requirements in Grecian history."
--Professor George Elliot Howard, _Stanford University_, Cal.
