First sentence: "It is the first law of history, that the writer should neither dare to advance what is false nor to suppress what is true ; that he should relate the facts with strict impartiality, free from ill will or favor; that his narrative should distinguish the order of time, and, when necessary, the description of places ; that he should unfold the motives of men, and in his account of the transactions or the events, interpose his own judgment : should relate what was done, how it was done, and what share chance, rashness, or prudence had in the issue ; that he should give the character of the leading men, their weight and influence, their passions, principles, and conduct through life."
