Summary

"The Chosen People: A Compendium of Sacred and Church History for School-Children" by Charlotte M. Yonge presents a historical retelling of the Scriptures designed for young audiences in the 1800s. Beginning with the promise of redemption after man's fall, the story follows key figures like Adam, Noah, and Abraham. It establishes the foundations of God's chosen people through their trials and tribulations, focusing on the important covenant made with Abraham and the early history of Israel, including accounts of Noah's ark and the Tower of Babel, to set the stage for the patriarchs and the rise of the Israelite nation.
