The format could be a useful study tool but the particular Q&A's are a perfect example of how mythology (and worse) used to be taught as history. Just horrible.

This is a drill-style resource or study aid, and since it was published in 1896 it is a historical artifact that reflects history teaching methods of that period, memorizing dates and events. The entries are concise, typically comprising a single sentence or two per question.
The tone is didactic in nature, with an objective to impart fundamental historical facts rather than to foster critical thinking or cultural sensitivity.
