Excerpt from Explorers and Settlers The stories illumine the causes of events and enable the youngest to see in the clearest light how our forefathers lived and why they acted as they did. They impart the spirit of history and assist the imagination in reconstruct ing the story of early times. Some of the best lessons of the past are all but lost if they are not brought home to youth. The deeds of early heroes touch a responsive chord in the child's own im pulses and moods - impulses and moods which our mod ern life too early obliterates. So if these stories of the men who have made our country what it is are to leave their strongest impression they Should be read while the boy still wishes to go to sea, to fight Indians, to be a pioneer. Scattered through the volumes are many selections which are in their nature sources - the raw material of history. Often the great characters of the past are allowed to speak for themselves.
