"General History for Colleges and High Schools" by P. V. N. Myers is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This comprehensive volume aims to present a structured overview of human history, covering ancient, medieval, and modern periods, with emphasis on significant civilizations and their cultural contributions. The opening of the work serves as a preface, where Myers outlines the framework of the narrative and acknowledges the sources that informed
his writing. He stresses the importance of verifying historical facts and offers insight into the primary sections dedicated to ancient history, which include early civilizations such as India, China, Egypt, and Mesopotamia (Chaldæa and Assyria). Myers introduces the classification of history into three broad periods and sets the stage for a detailed exploration of influential races, migrations, and the evolution of societies over time.
