Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of American Nationality The authors hope that this "Short History of the American People" may serve the purposes of two classes of readers.

For the student and the general reader alike, it is hoped that the bibliographical notes may point the way to more extended studies. The aim of the authors is not so much to present a balanced narrative of events, as to describe those movements and forces which have left their permanent impress upon the national character and institutions. The first volume (The Foundations of American Nationality, 1492 to 1789) deals with the molding of the varied European nationalities and the several detached colonies into an independent and united nation; the second (The Development of American Nationality, 1783 to the Present Time) deals with the development of the nation so formed. While any division of the subject matter of history occasions perplexity and disagreement, the authors believe that the character of the problems confronting the people of the time, and the character of the materials which the historian must employ, permanently differentiate the colonial period from the national, and that the two can best be treated by different men. In order, however, that each author might have full liberty to express his views, the volumes overlap for the period 1783 to 1789.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An American Citizenship Course in United States History, Vol. 3 In fact, the American Revolution, as fought out in campaigns and battles on American soil, was a civil war, and such a treatment of it, we believe, is in harmony with the facts. The bitter antagonism between the American Patriots and the American Tories is manifested in each of the two great phases of the war, namely (1) the struggle, up to July 4, 1776, for the rights of free-born Englishmen, and (2) after that date for political independence.

Download or read book The History of North America Classic Reprint written by Guy Carleton Lee and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 538 pages. 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. Looking back with fuller knowledge and clearer vision we can now unveil what was hidden to the men of the period under review, and declare in categorical terms what to them was insoluble. They often misjudged each other; we can afford neither to overrate nor to decry. What was to them problematical has to us all the marks of an inevitable evolution.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citizenship, History and Civics for Americanization This volume was designed to meet the needs of those aliens who have made the United States their permanent home and desire to apply for citizenship. It contains the vital facts of America's making and gives the principles underlying our democratic form of government. In this, the third edition, not much material has been added, and the few changes made were upon the suggestion of teachers who have had experience in using Citizenship in preparing men for the naturalization examination. The author wishes to acknowledge indebtedness to Mr. Oran T. Moore, Chief Examiner of Naturalization, and to Mr. Raymond Crist, Director of Citizenship, Department of Labor, for suggestions as to the treatment of the subject matter; and to Judge Edmund Waddill, Jr., of the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Richmond, Va., for a critical perusal of the manuscript. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canadian Nationality: Its Growth and Development We take the day of Confederation as the period when there appeared as a living power in America, a Canadian National sentiment. Prior to that event, the feeling of attachment to the individual provinces had been of the most feeble nature, excepting among the French and the United Empire Loyalists. It was not choice that brought most of the old countrymen to British America. Going to a colony was regarded as going into exile, and, mainly, they remained in the colonies because they could not help themselves, or with the view of acquiring means whereby to live in comfort at home, in civilized Europe I' The life, then, of the individual British American Colonies may be regarded as a period of incubation, which resulted in the production of the Dominion of Canada.

In each land there are those who denounce the alleged weakness of their own government in deal ing with the asserted aggressive deeds and policies of the other. Such writers, however, are danger ous guides. Urging our right and denouncing their wrong does not help to solve actual prob lems.

Download or read book American Nations written by Colin Woodard and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-09-25 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • A New Republic Best Book of the Year • The Globalist Top Books of the Year • Winner of the Maine Literary Award for Non-fiction Particularly relevant in understanding who voted for who during presidential elections, this is an endlessly fascinating look at American regionalism and the eleven “nations” that continue to shape North America According to award-winning journalist and historian Colin Woodard, North America is made up of eleven distinct nations, each with its own unique historical roots. In American Nations he takes readers on a journey through the history of our fractured continent, offering a revolutionary and revelatory take on American identity, and how the conflicts between them have shaped our past and continue to mold our future. From the Deep South to the Far West, to Yankeedom to El Norte, Woodard (author of American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good) reveals how each region continues to uphold its distinguishing ideals and identities today, with results that can be seen in the composition of the U.S. Congress or on the county-by-county election maps of any hotly contested election in our history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Italian in America The design of "The Italian in America" is to present clearly the contribution of Italy to American development and citizenship. The work is one of a series reviewing the influx of the various racial strains and nationalities that are making up the composite American. The authors have in view simply the recital of facts for impartial consideration, for no concern of this country is more momentous and urgent than the national dealing with the problems of immigration, congestion, distribution and education for American standards of living and citizenship. To exclude what is essentially bad or unfusible from any source - to welcome and utilize what is essentially good and helpful, even if yet imperfectly developed, is in the judgment of the authors the true American policy.
