Book excerpt: Excerpt from Makers of Europe, Outlines of European History, for the Middle Forms of Schools That such a state of things has so long existed accounts probably for the astonishing lack of interest shown by the majority of young people in a study, which, if intelligently worked at, is full of delight and romance. Our fellow-teachers on the Continent have, I believe, anticipated us in this matter, yet it seems as though England has an especial need of reading her own history in the light of other lands. For her very isolation during her earlier days, and her ambition and aggressive desire of extension later on, brought her into close touch with Europe at all the turning-points of her development. 80 close indeed has been this connection that the greater part of her history can only be fully understood when we place it against the background of European life and progress.
