Excerpt from American Beginnings in Europe History, it has been wisely said, finds its greatest practical value in bringing about the moral revelation of the world in the mind of the child. In organizing the facts of history with the achievement of this moral revelation in view, that material should be selected which the pupil can appreciate and understand, which will be most conducive to his moral and intellectual growth, and which will be most helpful in explaining his life in its relation to the lives of his fellows. With the purpose of thus making history an applied study this book has been written. The plan is based upon the outline prepared by the Committee of Eight for Grade VI, and in the main it follows this outline somewhat closely. As the author was a member of that committee, he has had the best possible opportunity to know just what is the scope of the work which the outline was intended to cover. Moreover, after this report was issued he made out for the schools of Springfield, Mass., of which he was superintendent, a course of study in history for Grade VI which was much like that made out for the same grade by the committee.

"Who were the first humans to inhabit North America? According to the now familiar story, mammal hunters entered the continent some 12,000 years ago via a land bridge that spanned the Bering Sea and introduced the distinctive stone tools of the Clovis culture. Drawing from original archaeological analysis, paleoclimatic research, and genetic studies, noted archaeologists Dennis J. Stanford and Bruce A. Bradley challenge that narrative. Their hypothesis places the technological antecedents of Clovis technology in Europe, with the culture of Solutrean people in France and Spain more than 20,000 years ago, and posits that the first Americans crossed the Atlantic by boat and arrived earlier than previously thought."--Back cover.

Excerpt from Our Beginnings in Europe and America The history of the United States is a branch of the history of the world. Life in America is a transplanted European life. Its development here has been largely determined by new world conditions, but its origins were in Europe or even in that older world about the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea. As civilization has been handed on from race to race during the ages, each people has added its own peculiar contribution to it.
