Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early History of Vermont, Vol. 4 The unique place that Vermont held in the country in its early days, the difference in sentiment of her people and their clashing political interests caused them to be exceedingly watchful while several parties claimed her territory. When New Hampshire withdrew her claim to the Grants and protection of the people dwelling there, the Green Mountain Boys, the inhabitants of the Grants, declared themselves independent of all other earthly power or jurisdiction. This declaration seemed to whet the appetites of all the surrounding powers. New York redoubled her energy to subdue the people of the Grants; Massachusetts would absorb her; New Hampshire would resume her jurisdiction that she had so timidly surrendered to New York or would divide Vermont between her and New York, while the British attempted, by her army and persuasion, to retain her jurisdiction over this land. Vermont seemed to have no friends on either side, and relied on the strength and courage of her people to maintain the independent stand she had taken. To add to what would seem an overwhelming odds against Vermont, her own people were divided. For a time Tories were numerous and did what they could to prevent the people of Vermont maintaining their independence.

This book was released on 2016-09-04 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Natural and Civil History of Vermont, Vol. 1 of 2 Three centuries have passed away since America was first discovered by Colume bus. From that time until now, the all'airs of America have engaged the attention of historians and philosophers. The natural productions of this continent, have been one object of general inquiry. Among the Spanish writers, there are some good essays on the natural history of the southern parts of America. In Canada, some of the physicians and Jesuits were attentive to the natural productions of that part of the continent and have left some valuable pieces on the natural history of New France. This kind of knowledge was not much attended to, by the first settlers of the British colonies and we' have but few of their ancient writings, in which it was contem plated at all. Obliged to depend upon transient and partial accounts, the best writer upon natural history, M. De Button, has fallen into many mis takes respecting the natural productions of A merica, which, more accurate observations would have corrected. The subject instead of being fully explored, is yet a treasure but little ex; amined. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Vermont With Descriptions, Physical and Topographical The Rev. Hosea Beckley, for many years a distinguished clergyman of this state, was the author of the following work, which he had nearly prepared for the press, some two years since, and had obtained a large list of subscribers for the book, when he was suddenly arrested by death - leaving no other patrimony to his bereaved family but this work in manuscript, upon which he had bestowed years of labor, and which is now published for the benefit of his widow. The work is given entire as it was left by Mr. Beckley, the publisher not deeming himself authorized to alter the manuscript from the condition in which it was left by the author. The only thing done, except copying for the press, has been in one or two instances, to bring the narrative down to the close of the last year; and to arrange the chapters in the order, in which the subjects treated of in them seemed to require, as they were left by Mr. Beckley, owing probably to his sudden demise, without being numbered, or placed in their proper order.
