Reprint of the original, first published in 1875.

Excerpt from Questions on Higginson's Young Folks' History of the United States: For the Use of Teachers All this is said on the supposition that the Young Folks' His tory is to be studied and recited in the ordinary mode. It was designed for that use; but I would also suggest another way of using it, at least for those teachers who have the time to give. There is appended to these questions a short paper, entitled How to Study History, and contributed by me to the opening number of the New England Journal of Education. Even in the ordinary schoolroom use of this book, I think that it will make history a pleasant theme for children; but, with the method indicated in that paper, I believe that the study can be made far more attrae tive, and consequently more useful.
