Download or read book Centennial History of Indiana written by Hubert M. Skinner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Centennial History of Indiana: For Schools and for Teachers Institutes That the year 1916, the Centennial of Indiana's Statehood, should awaken the deepest popular interest and be marked with a pageantry unprecedented in any similar case is not surprising, in view of the history of the State and its people. Indiana was the eighteenth State to be organized and to enter the American Union. Of the four dozen States compos ing the great Republic, Indiana is only the thirty-eighth in area, being the smallest of all the Western States of the old classification; but in population, according to the Federal cen sus of 1910, it is surpassed by only seven States in all the Union. The people of Indiana are chiefly of the old Colonial stock, the European immigration never having been excessive; and the boundaries of the State are for the most part highly artificial, consisting of straight and imaginary lines. Yet in its history and development Indiana has manifested a character of its own, which is altogether remarkable among the common wealths; and while the people are intensely loyal to the Union as a whole, they cherish a deep love for their State, and take great pride in it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Things and Peoples in Indiana It affords me great pleasure to contribute a few words by way of introduction to Dr, Wood's Sketches of. Things and Peoples. This kind of book, the subject matter of which is woven largely out of the personal experiences of the writer, is, in the nature of the case, full of interest. It lives. Dr. Wood says truthfully on his title page, that of these things he has been a part. It was only modesty that required the omission of magna from the Virgilian quotation. Dr. Aaron Wood is one of the pioneers of Indiana. He has personally witnessed the entire transformation by which this great Commonwealth, with its telephone, its electric light, and its sixty millions of wheat, has been in three score years evolved from a dark wilderness, whose Grendel was fever and ague. He has virtually seen our whole history enacted year by year, and has had a personal interest or actual part in every important event since our admission into the Union. To this extraordinary breadth of observation among the growing populations and institutions of our State, must be added the Doctors natural genius for seeing things, without which travel is folly, years barren, and eyes useless. He who sees and sees and sees nothing, would better never write. When in the autumn of 1635 a colony of Massachusetts people made their toilsome way westward to lay the foundations of the future in the valley of the Connecticut, it is said that the voice of the resolute Hooker made the woods of every camping station ring with his psalmody and preaching. Aaron Wood has been the Hooker of the Indiana forests - the voice of one crying in the wilderness. To be sure, this brief monograph is a genuine product. It has the impress of its authorship on every page. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The History of Indiana for Boys and Girls Classic Reprint written by Charles W. Moores and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Indiana, for Boys and Girls I. The Indian inhabitants and the coming of the French. Indiana became one of the United States in 1816. Her first white visitors a century and a half earlier, under the leadership of the French explorer La Salle, found here a wooded wilderness in the undisturbed possession of Indians, who lived on such products of the soil as they could cultivate without tools and on the game they secured with traps and arrows. Soon the Jesuit missionaries began to come, one at a time, entering the Indiana country from Lake Erie by way of the Maumee River, carrying their light canoes over a nine-mile portage through the woods near what is now Fort Wayne, and reembarking upon the Wabash River to follow it to its mouth. Other adventurous French priests found their way from the northeast to the headwaters of the Ohio River, and, drifting with its rapid current as far as the Illinois border, pushed up the Wabash to where Lafayette now stands. To their superiors in Quebec and in far-off France these devoted men carried back their story of a race of intelligent and hospitable natives who lived in the rich Indiana valleys and had not yet begun to hate or fear the white invader. Following the trail of these early missionaries, but drawn by the spirit of adventure and the love of gain, there came next the forest rangers and fur traders to live among the natives, in Indian fashion, and engage in commerce with them.
