Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from King and Queen County, Virginia But the author has made great compensation for the loss of so much original information by the diligence of his research and the faithful arrangement of his findings. His pages unfold before our eyes the pioneer settlement of this territory; its subsequent formation into the political division known as a county; the orderly development of this people under the law, customs, religion, and social life of a real English community; the names of many individuals and families who have added substance, culture, dignity, and luster to a brave and refined people; the arrest and almost overthrow of this civilization by a, disastrous war; and the subse quent resumption of communal life under radically changed social and economic conditions. This narrative will be of grateful and affectionate interest to the sons and daughters of this noble old' county, and to Virginians everywhere; and, in after years, to those seeking information for a larger history of our race on these new shores.

Download or read book History of the Expedition Under the Command of Lewis and Clark Vol 1 of 4 Classic Reprint written by Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-19 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Expedition Under the Command of Lewis and Clark, Vol. 1 of 4 My commentary relates mainly to geography, ethnology, and natural history; but it is too extensive and diversified to be concisely described, and if it cannot speak for itself, there is nothing to be said about it. I wish that the literal extracts from the codices were more copious than they are; but all books, even such as this one, have necessary limits. The rest Of the new matter in these volumes consists Of a Supplement to Jefierson's Memoir of Lewis, Memoirs Of Clark and of Cass, respectively, a bibliography, a much needed index, this preface, and various illustrations. The modern map was selected as being on about the same scale as Captain Clark's original, thus facilitating comparison Of his with our geography. But as it was not drawn for this work, I am responsible for nothing that appears upon it excepting the red marks I have made to indicate the route. These will be found as accurate as the map permits them to be; but the result is to be taken simply as a diagram.
