Preface
I have used L'Antiquité, by Albert Malet, as a work of
reference in teaching the Middle Forms of the Park
School, Preston, and the First year Frœbel Students at
the Maria Grey Training College.
I have known many history teachers deterred from the
teaching of World History by the lack of suitable
text-books, and I have made this translation of a book
written to meet the requirements of French secondary
schools, in the hope that it will fill a long-felt
want, by providing a book for the first year's work.
I wish to express my thanks to Miss Alice M. Stoneman,
Head Mistress of the Park School, Preston, who first
brought the book to my notice, and who kindly allowed
me to make use of the translation she had already
begun, and to Mrs. Jehanne Russell, whose advice and
encouragement have helped me throughout.
