Excerpt from English History in Rhyme
This Metrical Summary is one of a series, prepared, or in course of preparation, for use in schools, or for those who wish to memorize in a short time, and in an easy manner, the principal dates and events of history.
Its practical value has been tested in my own school, where I have used it in connection with a text-book. Pupils enjoy reciting it, and, when once learned, it is not readily forgotten. The genealogical part of this second edition contains information not given elsewhere in any one book, and affords an answer to every question on the subject which would naturally arise.
The Scottish tables are unique, and are quite necessary in properly understanding many portions of the chronicles of England as well as of Scotland.
However skeptical some teachers may be, as to the mnemonic value of this method of study, all doubt will disappear upon a trial of its merits. A great point gained is that pupils take hold of the rhyme with enthusiasm, and do not realize while they are learning it that they are surmounting difficulties which have remained unconquered, except by those who have a phenomenal memory.
