Abstract

THE earliest form of history is a chronicle of priests and kings with their attendant worshippers and warriors. The misty dream of god-descended heroes passes into the clear vision of the ordered march of Roman legions; the picturesque pageant of medieval bishops and barons vanishes in the smoke of Bosworth field; and the sound of Drake's guns, drumming the Spaniards up the Channel, melts into the strains of a Te Deum, sung in Notre Dame for another victory over Marlborough.
