Excerpt from Library of Universal History and Popular Science In order to do justice to the claims of historical study, it can never be necessary for us to depreciate those of any other branch of learning. Properly considered, there is no such thing as rivalry between different spheres of knowledge; only emulation, a noble and helpful emulation. All real knowledge is good, being in one way or another a source of power and happiness. The various realms of things known or knowable are but co-equal and fraternal states in that vast confederation which we may call the republic of science. No single member of this confederation is strong, none is sufficient, standing alone. Each is necessary to all, all are necessary to each. While, therefore, no one study may assert for itself the whole of what is valuable, even' study doubtless has its own special value; and this value, as in the case of a study like history, it may sometimes be worth our while to place clearly before our minds, modestly, tolerantly, and for the rightful purpose of forming a just idea of the particular good we ought to expect and to work for, in our pursuit of it. Probably that use of the study of history which will first occur to most persons, is the one suggested by the common conception of history as an enormous body of facts about the past, - the effort to know and retain a considerable number of these facts being regarded as a fine gymnastic exercise for the faculty of memory. It is, indeed, quite astonishing how great a multitude of historical details - dates, names, and other precise items about persons, cities, nations, armies, political parties, institutions, and so forth - almost any person is capable of carrying in his memory, if only he patiently stores and trains it in that way.
