Description: From the Introduction...

This series of English History Source Books is intended for use with any ordinary textbook of Engish History. Experience has conclusively shown that such apparatus is a valuable — nay, an indispensable — adjunct to the history lesson. It is capable of two main uses: either by way of lively illustration at the close of a lesson, or by way of inference-drawing, before the textbook is read, at the beginning of the lesson.
