Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the American People Miss turpin's Short History of the American People has impressed me as a work of exceptional value. The narrative is clear, impartial, spirited, and altogether read able. The prime merit of the work is, in my opinion, that events are made so to unfold that even a child will grasp the principle of cause and effect as it has worked itself out in the history of our country. This volume is not a series of detached dates and incidents, however picturesque or pleasingly told. The process of growth is brought out in every paragraph in such a way as to make the sequence of events illumining. By such treatment the reader is eu abled to contract the historical habit. As the habit of sound thinking is more than a thousand thoughts, so the historical habit of interpreting cause and effect in human experience is of far more value than any knowledge of events, however comprehensive. The author has preserved the due perspective of Ameri can history by giving a large place to the facts bearing on the industrial and social development of our people, in accordance with the changing sphere of the modern State, which is becoming more and more social both in its spirit and aims. The style is simple and yet energetic, while the appara tus for teaching, such as maps, topics for study, references for reading, and suggestive questions, are admirable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the American People The name America, which, by accident or mistake, was given to the Western World, fell, in the process of time, to the principal nation on the Continent, and for more than a century, the inhabitants of the United States have been known the world over as the American people. It is the history of this people that the present volume is interested with. The author desires to tell, in brief, how the country was first settled, what motives incited the adventurers who-left European civilization to plant colo nies on our Shores; how those colonies gradually learned that there was strength in union, and that it was to their credit before the world to be one nation; how the early fear that a Republican form of government was not adapted to a large country was dissipated, and how the whole land was gradually developed until its present position among the nations was reached.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Republic: A Brief History of the American People In the making of our Republic the deeds of pioneers, farmers, inventors, teachers, captains of labor, captains of industry, have been quite as important as the deeds of warriors and statesmen. This history, therefore, is not one of the drum and trumpet kind, nor' is it one in which the politician always holds the center of the stage. A large share of attention is given to the every - day life of the people; to the movement which carried American civilization westward and built up a Union of States; to the growth of our industrial system; to the great inventions which have contributed so largely to our competency in material things. The treatment of topics bearing upon our economic development is unusually full for the reason that the economic factor in the history of a nation, especially in the history of the American nation, is a subject of transcendent importance. There is much in Bagehot's saying The selling of figs, the cobbling of shoes, the manufacture of nails - these are the essence of life. While preparing the book the author received from the officers of the Library of Congress courtesies for which he is deeply in debted.

It was evident; indeed, even to some who were not deemed thoughtful at all. Even the heedless, negligent Lord Culpeper, little as he really cared for the government he had been set to conduct, had suggested eight years ago that all questions of war and peace in the colonies Should be submitted for final decision to the governor and coun cil of Virginia, where it might be expected that the King's interests would be loyally looked alter and safe guarded.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concise History of the American People, From the Discoveries of the Continent to the Present Time, Vol. 1 In these latter days public documents are published to the world, and the materials of history become accessible to all. By this means the main and leading facts of the late War are as well known to-day as they ever will be, with the exception of a few instances in the career of individuals which will be revealed when the Life and Times of each comes to be written. This latter class of material, however unfortunately often largely embellished and explained by after-thoughts, may throw light upon personal motives and actions, but will shed little upon the great events themselves. For in the late exciting period statesmen groped their way; no man saw the end from the beginning. An overruling Hand brought about the great result, not by the plannings of men, but in spite of them. It is hoped that the intelligent reader will find in this volume a succinct as well as a comprehensive view of the history of the American people, and of the influences that have formed their characteristics and their Government.
