First, to show my boy readers that the boys of long ago are not to be looked upon as strangers, but were just as much boys as themselves. Second, in this, age of self-complacency, to ex bibit, for their contemplation and imitation, some of those manly virtues that stern necessity bred in her children. Third, to awaken by my simple stories an inter est in the lives and deeds of our ancestors, that shall stimulate the young reader to a study of those peoples from whom he has descended, and to whom he owes a debt of gratitude for the inheritance they have handed down to him. As it has been my intention to trace our own race from its Aryan source to its present type. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
