Mississippi History History Recounts Man’s Successes and Failures Histon- is the story of civilization — an account of mankind's experiences. It is a journal explaining man's background of accomplishments and failures. The recording of historv occurs in both written and unwritten form. Letters, diaries, books, and inscriptions contain the written chronicle while tools, sculptures, paintings, weap- ons, bones, and architectural ruins provide an unwritten record. People study history to profit from the experi- ence of the past. Each type of histon- has a sepa- rate function. World History develops cosmopoli- tan Americans and enriches them culturally, while American Historv makes fora more informed citi- zen.
