A Short Course Of History by Havilland Le Mesurier Chepmell. This abridged educational survey condenses the broad sweep of Western history into a compact, teacher-friendly volume intended for beginners and schools. The work divides the narrative into three principal strands: the histories of Greece, Rome, and England, providing concise treatments of major events, institutions, and personalities while guiding readers with a clear chronological framework. In addition to printed text, the edition includes prefatory notes, and a substantial Chronological Table with Grecian, Roman, and English dates, helping learners grasp the sequence of wars, reforms, and social changes. The author emphasizes the essential, discarding what he deems superfluous for memory, while often supplying notes and cross-references to support further study. The book reflects mid-19th-century educational aims, merging classical content with reforms and atlases designed for Grammar School Classics. Although concise, the narrative traverses from the city-states of classical Greece through the Roman Republic and Empire to medieval and early modern Britain, offering a compact introduction to the formation of Western history and its key continuities.
