The study of history, like the study of a landscape, should begin
with the most conspicuous features. Not until these have been fixed
in memory will the lesser features fall into their appropriate
places and assume their right proportions. The famous men of
ancient and modern times are the mountain peaks of history. It is
logical then that the study of history should begin with the
biographies of these men. Not only is it logical; it is also
pedagogical. Experience has proven that in order to attract and
hold the child's attention each conspicuous feature of history
presented to him should have an individual for its center. The
child identifies himself with the personage presented. It is not
Romulus or Hercules or Caesar or Alexander that the child has in
mind when he reads, but himself, acting under similar conditions.
