A History of Macalester College: Its Origin, Struggle, and Growth. E-book. Formato PDF Henry Daniel Funk   -  Forgotten Books, 2017  - 

My aim has been to present an accurate narra tive of the origin, struggle and growth of the college. I have kept in mind Ranke's rule that the historian must show how events came to pass, Wie es eigentlich gewesen ist, and not be a mere chronicler of events. I am aware, however, that the realization of such objective history is conditioned by the mental pecul iarities oi the writer, and that every narrative is really a description of events as seen through the mind of the historian. I offer this book to the pub lic realizing its imperfections, yet conscious that I have made an earnest endeavor to write an unbiased account.
