WORLD HISTORY

BY

HUTTON WEBSTER,Ph.D.

PROFESSOR IN THE UNIVERSITY OK NEBRASKA

"The true object of history is to show us the life of the human race in its fullness, and to follow up the tale of its continuous and difficult evolution. The conception of the progress of civilization in intelligible sequence, is the greatest achievement of modern thought."— Frederic Harrison, The Meaning of History.
