Excerpt from Willard's Historic Guide: Guide to the Temple of Time; And Universal History for Schools
And in no way does the author conceive that she could better serve her country, than in awakening a taste for history, and putting its grand outline more within the power of universal acquisition, in every common school, throughout our wide republic. This, if it stands, must remain by avoiding the rocks, upon which all former republics have foundered. History must make them known; and not merely to here and there a solitary statesman. WE the people must have an enlightened will; or power with us, may, like a steam-engine on a wrong track, carry destruction In its course. And if the people are to understand history, then it must be taught In the people 3 schools.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book combines two subjects: geography and history, to create a new method of teaching. It began with the author's dissatisfaction with how schools taught history, which led her to invent the Temple of Time and the Historic Tree. The Temple of Time visually represents the passage of time from the time of Christ to the mid-1800s, and helps students understand how time and history flow together. The Historic Tree was an earlier invention of the author, and this book teaches how it can be used in conjunction with the Temple of Time for further historical analysis. Together, these systems form a new way to connect dates and events. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
