APPENDIX
BOOKS FOR REFERENCE AND READING IN THE STUDY OF AMERICAN HISTORY
This book is designed to be used either before the formal text-book
on American history is begun, or to be read in connection with it. It
is also intended to serve as a convenient basis for more extended
work on the part of both teacher and pupils. Hence, to the reading of
the preceding chapters should be added a systematic course in
supplementary reading.
The following plan is suggested, which may be readily modified to
meet the needs of any particular class of pupils:
REFERENCE BOOKS FOR TEACHERS
Two books are of special value to teachers. These are Channing and
Hart's _Guide to American History_ (Ginn & Company, $2.00), and Gordy
and Twitchell's _Pathfinder in American History_ (Lee & Shepard,
$1.20. In separate parts, Part I, 60 cents; Part II, 90 cents).
These two works are replete with suggestions, hints, and helps on
collateral study, with numerous references, detailed lists of topics,
and a wide range of other subjects which make them indispensable to
the teacher of American history.

NOTE.--The subject of reference books on American history is treated
thoroughly in Montgomery's _American History_ (see "Short List of
Books," page xxxiii in Appendix), and Fiske's _History of the United
States_ (see Appendix D, page 530, Appendix E, page 539, and Appendix
F, page 542).
