This book is a study by the committee to consider the subject of history in the secondary schools and to draw up a scheme of college entrance requirements in history. Every question involving doubt has been carefully, thoroughly, and systematically discussed, and in the conclusions here presented all the members concur. The committee endeavoured, in the light of the actual facts, to prepare a report that may be useful and suggestive to teachers of history and that may furnish to superintendents and principals some assistance in the task of framing programmes and in determining methods of work. The committee has sought to be helpful rather than merely critical or depreciatory, and have tried to consider the whole field in a broad and general way, recommendations, not for the schools and colleges of one section or of one kind, but for the teaching institutions of the nation.
