Excerpt from History of Commerce and Industry This book is an outgrowth of eleven years' experience in teaching history to commercial classes at the Philadelphia Cen tral High School. In preparing it the aim has been the same as the aim Of the teaching: viz., to present the essentials of his tory from the commercial and industrial point of view. The purpose has been to furnish the history Of a great movement or tendency rather than the history of nations. It will be Obvious to those who use the book that the 'writer's interests have been primarily in commercial history. The writer accepts as true a recent statement Of Canon Hen son, that knowledge Oi the past is a great emancipating power Of the present, and that ignorance Of the past is one of the present's greatest curses. History treated as a record of social progress may become one of the great cementing forces Of society. With what aspect of the past shall history deal? It is quite correct to say that history is the outgrowth of the age in which it is written and that the various interpretations which have been given it are but reflections Of the varying and dominant interests Of society. Not many years ago, Edward A. F ree man's famous dictum, history is past politics and politics are present history, found general acceptance; but this sentiment is no longer generally approved. Clearly there is at present a desire to select those interests Of the past which most bear on the present. For a considerable time, the tendency has been Obvious for both writers and teachers to emphasize economic and social history rather than the history Of war or Of the evolu tion Of governmental systems.

Excerpt from A Short History of English Commerce and Industry Books on which reliance has thus been placed. The history ends with the introduction of Free Trade, because with this event one period seems to close, and another to begin, and the features and incidents of the last period, which is now running its course, are as yet too close to allow of calm observation from a distance.

Excerpt from Industry and Trade: Historical and Descriptive Account of Their Development in the United States It will not be long before every school student is out in the world. That is what he or she is getting ready for during the school years. There is a living to make and a life to lead, and all must get into the game. But it is poor business jumping into a game whose conditions and rules we do not know. We don't want to make a hit and then run to third instead of first, or we shall pretty soon be sitting on the bench, watching better-informed people play. The game this book deals with - the game of labor and industry - is one we cannot stay out of unless we want to be professional loafers or tramps. We want to take part in winning prosperity for our country, and for ourselves along with it. No country is truly prosperous if its people are afraid of work. The industries of a country are the basis of its well-being. Yet mere work or industry is not enough; the labors of us all must be intelligent if they are to set us high among the nations and peoples. And that means that we must be thoroughly informed about what we have to do with, here in America, and how we can best put it to use. We shall win out as a people, and also as individuals, in proportion as we possess wide and exact knowledge.

Excerpt from A History of Commerce The year 1914 marks one of the great turning points in history. I have accordingly revised the part Of this book covering the recent'period to close the narrative at that date, and have added another part, covering the history Of commerce in the war and in the two or three years Of peace immediately following. The commerce Of the great nations of the world has departed since 1914 far from its accustomed paths and forms. In my attempt to make intelligible the commercial changes Of the time I have had to take account Of matters in public finance, currency and foreign exchange which are usually treated apart from the history Of international trade. I have thought it better, by touching on these outside subjects, to show the reasons for the course which commerce has followed, rather than to omit the reasons because they are hard for the student Of the history of commerce to understand.

Excerpt from History of the Lumber Industry of America, Vol. 1 Industry and commerce have received in the past but incidental recognition from the historian. He has sought to trace the history of peoples in the political movements in which they have been involved. The successful prosecution of war has appeared to him more notable than the continued preservation of peace. The achievements of diplo mats and warriors have appeared more vital than the successes of men of business. The growing respect engendered abroad by a nation's army and navy has seemed a more attractive theme for discourse than the increase of its trade in the markets of the world.

Excerpt from Commerce and Industry How the earth supports life. - the earth is the home of man. It becomes his home by furnishing him food, clothes, house or shelter, fuel, luxuries, and tools and materials of industry which enable him to produce and transport goods. So nearly universal are these wants that practically all men have ali six classes of goods. Even savages have luxuries in the form of toys, ornaments, and musical instruments. Each particular method by which a man gets some useful commodity leads to an industry often of world-wide distribution. All these materials for a living come directly or indirectly out of the crust of the earth. Most of our goods come indirectly through the intermediate stages of plant and animal life, the earth itself supplying directly but a small part of our wants. The plants grow from the earth. We cut them into pieces, shape them into tools, and build our houses and barns. We eat them or clothe ourselves with their fibers, we extract their juices and dig their roots for drugs and medicines. We burn them for fuel, turn them into articles of luxury, and thus make them help in the supply of some of the wants for each of the six classes of goods. The animals in turn eat the plants and each other, and furnish us their meat and milk as nourish ment; their wool and flii's become our clothing, their Skins make our shoe leather, the tents of the nomad, the belts of the engine wheel, the bindings of our choicest books.
