First written in 1918 - 1919, it was revised in 1949 to cover the many advances. My copy is a 1000+ page 1971 reprint from the Doubleday presses. A fascinating read that could have been used as a school text book, possibly even a teacher's aid and reference book. Cheers to you and yours, Frank.

I am sure his Outline of History is good. There is just so much out there and so little time.
