( About the Book History texts study and interpret the pa...)
About the Book History texts study and interpret the past as it may be understood from written documents. The period before written records is called prehistory. Historians use a narrative to examine and analyse past events, and attempt to objectively determine the patterns of cause and effect. Historical studies are not an end in themselves, but also a way of providing perspective on events taking place in the present. Also in this Book History derives from Greek historia, meaning "inquiry, knowledge acquired by investigation". It is the study of the past as described in written documents, with events occurring before written records being considered prehistory. World history is generally considered a teaching topic rather than a research topic. There are many history text books of varying quality, with some addressing the teaching of history or historiography, the process of undertaking research in history.

CHARLES EDWARDS
Edit ProfileEducation
Charles Edwards was educated at Cambridge University, emigrating later to New York, where he studied law and was admitted to the bar.
Career
Shortly after commencing practise he became standing counsel to the British consulate general in New York City, a position which he occupied for twenty- five years, and through this connection attracted a select and influential but never extensive clientele. He was counsel for the British government and for the owners of the Crenshaw and Hiawatha in the Prize Cases involving the status of the seceding states and perhaps the most momentous in its consequences of all the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States during the Civil War—where the President’s right jure belli to institute a blockade of ports in possession of insurgent states which neutrals are bound to regard was established. He also represented the British Government in Thomas Kaine (1852; 14 Howard, 103), where vital matters of jurisdiction in extradition proceedings were argued before the Supreme Court in banc. Following the sensational trial of Mrs. Cunningham in 1857 for the murder of Dr. Burdell, he successfully contested on behalf of the heirs and next of kin her claim to the murdered man’s estate (see Cunningham vs. Burdell, 4 Bradford, 343).
