This book serves several purposes. It (1) supplies illustrative
material, drawn from the best Greek sources, that may be used to
supplement the school narrative; (2) by means of searching questions, it
furnishes opportunity for more intensive study of certain periods; (3)
by supplying data upon the writer of source, and at times, more than one
source upon the same topic, it makes possible the study of simple
problems in the value of evidence; (4) extracts are of sufficient length
so that the pupil may be given some idea of Greek literature, as far as
that is possible through the use of translations; (5) the illustrations
not only supplement the written sources on the life of the Greeks, but
have been selected with a view to impressing upon the minds of students
the great value of the artistic work of the Greeks.
