Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Syllabus of Roman History This Syllabus, which has arisen from the needs of my own classroom, is offered to the public in the hope that it may prove useful to students of college and university grade in other institutions. Its aim is not to convey information but to present a scheme for the organization of the facts and ideas essential to a good knowledge of Roman history, whether obtained by lectures or by reading. The books recommended fairly cover the topics; so that, even without lectures, a stu dent With the Syllabus and a few shelves of books may make himself substantially acquainted with the subject. For brief review I have preferred to recommend my own text - books because their plan and contents especially harmonize with the present outline. The most crying need of students of all grades is guidance in note-taking and in the preparation of papers - that is, in the art of studying. An attempt is made to meet this need in the directions given at the close of the outline. The careful following of every item of advice there offered will immeasurably heighten the prevalent standard of intellectual neatness of both college and university students. Any suggestions for the correction or improvement of the Syllabus will be gratefully received. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
