About this book

The New Teaching of History, by H. G. Wells, comes with a reply to some recent criticisms of The Outline of History. A section headed Historians and the Teaching of History says the writer of these notes has been occupied for the better part of three years almost entirely in an intensely interesting enterprise, getting his own ideas about the general process of history into order and publishing them as a book, The Outline of History. The text asks why we teach history to our children, and answers that it is to take them out of themselves, to place them in a conscious relationship to the whole community in which they live.

The reply to critics takes up Mr. Gomme’s original view that Christianity is a purely European religion, and says one can best return him his “Nonsense!” and let the stuff go with that. The writer wants to lay stress upon the idea of universal history as an educational framework.
