Title: General History for Colleges and High Schools
Author: Philip Van Ness Myers
Publisher: Ginn and Company, Boston et. al.
Published: 1918
Binding: Hardcover
Language: English
Number of Pages: 796
Catalogs: Textbooks, Schoolbooks, World History
Description: Illustrated throughout, and containing color maps. 1917 edition, revised with additions for 1918. Original blue cloth binding with black text on front board and spine, greatly faded. Spine and tips are frayed and hinges are somewhat loose, though stitching is all intact. This textbook was annotated in pencil by one or more students from Walla Walla College, on pastedowns, flyleaf, interior pages, and page edges. The history covered in this textbook includes ancient world history, including Rome, Greece, and other empires, medieval history (including Renaissance), the era of Reformation (as defined from 1492 to 1648), and the era of political revolution, which is divided into three parts: absolute monarchy and the prelude to democratic revolution, the French Revolution and Napoleonic era, the Restoration of 1815 and the democratic reaction, taking the history all the way up to the world war of 1914-1918. Most of the text presumably dates from the 1906 edition, save current events between 1906 and 1918. Hardcover, acceptable condition. 796 pages plus index, octavo.
