The History of the United States and Its People (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The United States: And Its People for Young AmericansThe present work is meant, in the first instance, for the young - not alone for boys and girls, but for young men and women who have yet to make themselves familiar with the more important features of their country's history. By a book for the young is meant one in which the author studies to make his statements clear and explicit, in which curious and picturesque details are inserted, and in which the writer does not neglect such anecdotes as lend the charm of a human and personal interest to the broader facts of the nation's story.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
