Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the United States of North America In preparing the following history, the author has pursued that course which appeared to him best adapted to unite sound and thorough instruction with entertainment. Beginning with the discovery of the New World, and endeavouring to present the series of events in a clear and connected narrative, rejecting whatever he deemed irrelevant or unimportant, and dwelling chiefly on those striking features ofthe subject which give it vividness and character, he has brought it down to the present day. Although the considerable period embraced, the multitude of characters and events delineated, and the extent of the field in which they figure, have rendered the preservation of historical unity no easy task, he has laboured to give the work such a degree of compactness as woula enable the student to perceive the relation of all it parts, and to grasp the whole without any very difficult exercise of com prehension.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of North America It has been the constant aim of the author to preserve a careful impartiality in dealing with matters of difference of view, and to give no judgment for which he has not been able to offer a sanctioning fact for its source. The men of those times were, like the men of the present, serious and in the main sincere, and faced complex problems for whose solutions they could not furnish the needed wisdom. The new day which Jefferson introduced, and to which Madison fell heir, was indeed unique. While it grew out of the old and was organically part of the early life of the nation, it was very properly regarded by many as in a true sense another era. The story of the period might well be entitled: How democracy interpreted nationality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of North America: Canada and British, North America The history of the United States is so interwoven with the history of Canada that every American must possess a working knowledge of the progress made by the Dominion if he would properly understand many of the important phases of the development of the United States. It is, how ever, from the Canadian and not the American standpoint that the account of the history of the British possessions in North America must be viewed if one is to have a correct estimate of the reciprocal influences exerted by the United States of America and the Dominion of Canada and a fair judgment of the policies and achievements of these two great governments.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the United States of North America, Vol. 2: From the Discovery of the Western World to the Present Day It will be discovered, as we proceed, that outwardly, the administrations of Washington and Adams conducted the development we speak of, in a di rection exactly Opposite to that which has been followed by the expansions effected under the auspices of most of their successors. Inwardly, however, and in reality, there has been a wonderful harmony between these seemingly opposite paths of national progress. We shall have little difficulty in showing, that one effort has been the equipoise to the other, one growth the comple ment of the other; so that more has been effected than either party alone, or than both together, have aimed at; and whilst the stability of the nation has been insured, the influences and courses which could most endanger that stability have been made glaringly manifest to all; and such a pledge and assurance has been given of the guidance and blessing of the King of Nations, as may well remind all who aspire to control the affairs of the Commonwealth, of the principles which actuated those who most largely shared in its found ation, and by the operation of which alone, it, or any State, can attain to real and abiding greatness in the world. Such views as these may relieve of all dulness a narrative of 'the kind that lies before us; not factitiously, and by the introduction of materials foreign to the subject but by the display of the secret meaning and tendency of the events that make up the quiet round of commercial prosperity, of those trifling matters which appear only when massed in tables of statistics, and of the most exciting affairs of times of peace - contests for office, legislative discussions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the American People Since the American Revolution, the terms America and American have acquired a specific significance. They apply to the United States of America and its people; but the use of the words in this sense has been more com mon in trade and travel than in literature. There are half a dozen United States in the western world: two in North and four in South America. The words are rarely heard in association with Mexico or Brazil, yet they form a part Of the Official name Of these republics. Our own history, as a nation, shows a distinct line of cleavage in the use of the two words United States. Is our Union to be understood as consisting of the united States, or of the United States? We all agree on the use Of the words of America. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Indian Tribes of North America Classic Reprint written by John R. Swanton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Tribes of North America From the date of its first appearance in 1891 the Powell map of Linguistic Families of American Indians North of Mexico has proved of the widest utility. It has been reissued several times and copied into numerous publications. There has, however, been almost equal need of a map giving the location of the tribes under the several families. To one familiar from his readings in early American history with the names and locations of our prominent eastern tribes, such as the Delaware, Iroquois, Cherokee, and Choctaw, the preparation of a tribal map would seem to be simple, and it would indeed be so if all Indians had been grouped into bodies as clearly marked as those mentioned. But even in the eastern United States the term tribe is quickly found to have no uniform application. The Creeks were a confederation of a few dominant tribes and a number of subordinate bodies, each formerly independent. The name Delaware is com mouly said to have covered three tribes or subtribes, but while two of these seem never to have been independent of each other, the third, the Munsee, is often treated as if it were entirely separate. The name Powhatan was applied to about 30 tribes or subtribes which had been brought together by conquest only a few years before Virginia was settled, and the term Chippewa, or Ojibwa, is used for a multitude of small bands with little claim to any sort of governmental unity. In the case of the Iroquois, on the other hand, the tribe was only a part of the governmental unit, the Iroquois Confederation, or Longhouse. The northern Plains tribes present a certain coherence but farther south and west our difficulties multiply. An early explorer in Texas states that in that region, by nation was to be understood only a single town or perhaps a few neighboring villages, and in fact the number of tribal names reported from this section seems almost endless. In the governmental sense, each Pueblo community was a tribe, and if we were to attempt a complete list we should have in the first place a large number of existing, or at least recently existing.
