Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The First Days of Man: As Narrated Quite Simply for Young Readers
The writer has followed, with his own children, a method Of presenting the steps in the gradual development Of man which has produced most gratifying results. Instead Of treating each fact, each laboriously accumulated bit of human knowledge, as a mere isolated patch in a crazy quilt Of information, he has attempted to arrange them in logical sequence, to form an interesting pattern, so that as the child's fund of knowledge increases, he feels a deeper and deeper interest in fitting each newly acquired fact into its proper place in his mental picture of things.
