Charles Dickens 
A Child’s History of England [EPUB ebook] 

支持

Dickens dedicated the book to ‘My own dear children, whom I hope it may help, bye and bye, to read with interest larger and better books on the same subject’. The history covered the period between 50 BC and 1689, ending with a chapter summarising events from then until the accession of Queen Victoria. In a letter to his friend Douglas William Jerrold, Dickens confessed that he was composing the book so that he could prevent his children from embracing conservatism:
I am writing a little history of England for my boy…For I don’t know what I should do, if he were to get hold of any conservative or High Church notions; and the best way of guarding against any such horrible result is, I take it, to wring the parrots’ neck in his very cradle.’
