“To most people of time past and present, at least history is a
pageant, no less and no more. It is a vast procession of human
lives, fascinating to us because of the likeness underlying all the
differences and because of the differences through which we see the
likeness.”
J. W. ALLEN (_The Place of History in Education_).
