This book is a collection of biographical stories of a number of the prominent men of the last three thousand years.
Each one of these men was looked upon by hosts of his contemporaries as a hero. He was the ideal man of his time, and in the following stories one may trace that changing of ideals which has been the true history of the world. Holmes writes of having the same easy feeling among books that a stable boy has among horses. If a child can only gain that “easy feeling” among the men who have brought momentous events to pass, he has received the best possible preparation for the study of history.
