1904 | A General History for Colleges and High Schools | P. V. N. Myers, A.M. | Antique Hardcover
A true antique history book from 1904, written by historian and educator P. V. N. Myers and published by Ginn & Company.
A General History for Colleges and High Schools was created as a sweeping introduction to world history for students, covering major civilizations, empires, wars, religions, political movements, and cultural changes across centuries. The book moves from the ancient world through Greece and Rome, the Middle Ages, the Crusades, European kingdoms, revolutions, and later modern history, giving readers a fascinating look not only at history itself, but at how history was being taught more than 120 years ago.
That is what makes this copy especially interesting today. It is more than an old textbook. It is a piece of educational history, showing the language, priorities, illustrations, maps, and historical interpretations students encountered at the beginning of the 20th century. It would be a wonderful addition to an antique book collection, homeschool history shelf, academic library, or display of early educational books.
The work itself was first published around 1890, so this 1904 copy is an early later edition or printing rather than the original first edition. Bibliographic records confirm a Ginn & Company 1904 edition of this title.
