Excerpt from Memory Aids to the History of the United States: A Supplement to School Histories In general, a grouping of events, and a chronological associa tion of the less important with the more salient, may prove satisfactory. Not infrequently, however, a command of individual dates is desired. But these are difficult to remember. They afford but limited means for ideal correlation, and are fixed in the mind, if remembered at all, by direct, unaided, mental effort.: The result is, that not many need the injunction, Commit but ew dates to memory. In view of this, the following pages have been prepared. It is believed that they offer to all who desire a better knowledge of the Chronology of the History of the United States, the means of exchanging drudgery for recreation; and the power of, acquiring, readily, any desired command of dates. Although it is not presumed that any one should commit to memory all the mnemonized dates, yet there may be but little presented that some one may not wish to remember.

Excerpt from History of the United States of America: On a Plan Adapted to the Capacity of Youth, and Designed to Aid the Memory by Systematic Arrangement and Interesting Associations The School History herewith presented to the public has under gone such alterations as nearly to justify the announcement of it as a new work. The original division into periods, however, has been retained; the experience of teachers, for more than twenty years, having decided that, in this respect, it scarcely admits of improvement. And, in confirmation of the correctness of this judgment, it may be stated that every School History of the United States, published since the date of Goodrich's first edition, has been written, without exception, it is believed, upon the same general plan; and, in some instances, so nearly identical with his, as in the estimation of some to justify a question of legality.

Excerpt from A History of the United States of America: On a Plan Adapted to the Capacity of Youths, and Designed to Aid the Memory More than ten years have elapsed since the first publication of the following work, during which period, it has passed through forty-four editions, comprising more than one hundred and fifty thousand copies. The inconvenience attending frequent alterations in a school-book, connection with the unexpected patronage of the work, has deterred the author from attempting any revision of it, although he has been aware, for years, that it admitted of important improvements. At-length, admonished that the advanced slate of our schools and academies demands a more full and complete work, the author has devoted some months to a careful and thorough revision of it. Besides correcting some errors, he has endeavored to supply important deficiencies, especially in relation to the earlier and later portions of the History, by which the quantity of matter has been greatly increased. He has, in particular, endeavored to do more justice to the forefathers of the land, in compliance with a suggestion of the late distinguished principal of the Female Seminary in Wethersfield, Ct., whose public recommendation of the work was as flattering as unexpected. The author has retained the plan originally adopted, from a conviction of its general excellence; and in this he has been strengthened by the patronage which has been given to the work by a generous, but discerning public. For the benefit of the pupil, who may not at once understand the plan of the volume, the following brief explanation is added: - The principal object of dividing the History into periods is to aid the memory, by presenting certain marked eras, from which the whole subject of dates may be readily and distinctly viewed. Two sizes of type are employed. The matter in larger type is designed to give a brief outline of the History of the United States, and may be read in connection. The matter in smaller type is to be regarded rather in the light of notes, which, without studying exact regularity, are thrown in as they may subserve the purposes of illustration and completeness in the delineation of events, or as they may contribute to support the interest and establish the recollections of the reader.
