Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Wolfe in Canada: Or, the Winning of a Continent IN the present volume I have endeavored to give the details of the principal events in a struggle whose import ance can hardly be overrated. At its commencement the English occupied a mere patch of land on the eastern sea board of America, hemmed in on all sides by the French, who occupied not only Canada in the north and Louisiana in the south, but possessed a chain of posts connecting them, so cutting off the English from all access to the vast countries of the west. On the issues of that struggle depended not only the destiny of Canada, but of the whole of North America and.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remarks on the Policy of Recognizing the Independence of the Southern States of North America: And on the Struggle in That Continent I AM neither statesman nor lawyer, but amid the multiplicity of despatches, pamphlets, and speeches regarding the war now raging in the United States, the words of an ordinary, and an unprejudiced person, who has seen a good deal of the World, may have some weight with others, who like myself, feel a deep interest in that terrible struggle. And who does not? I have been to America, and have listened to the tall talk of New York about squashing the South in ninety days, and to the very questionable philanthropy of New England in its protestations against slavery. But no one could tell me how their dicta were to be carried into practice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the French War: Ending in the Conquest of Canada, With a Preliminary Account of the Early Attempts at Colonization and Struggles for the Possession of the Continent The history of the struggle between the Gaul and the Briton for possession of North America, though in form a straggling story, stretching over two centuries, ofiers one of the most interesting studies of national character and destiny. To treat it exhaustively in a volume like this was impossible, if not undesirable; but it is hoped that enough has been told to give the reader a clear idea of the character and sequence of all the significant events, and to suggest something of the philosophy of the long contest. A knowledge of this is absolutely necessary to any intelligent study of the subsequent history of our country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Red Mans Continent In writing this book the author has aimed first to present in readable form the main facts about the geographical environment of American history. Many important facts have been omitted or have been touched upon only lightly because they are generally familiar. On the other hand, special stress has been laid on certain broad phases of geography which are comparatively unfamiliar. One of these is the similarity of form between the Old World and the New, and between North and South America; another is the distribution of indigenous types of vegetation in North America; and a third is the relation of climate to health and energy. In addition to these subjects, the influence of geographical conditions upon the life of the primitive Indians has been emphasized.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Germans and Africa, Their Aims on the Dark Continent and How They Acquired Their African Colonies After a survey of the diplomatic history of the period, the question naturally intrudes itself - Was Great Britain justified in the attitude she first adopted towards her new competitor? From the British point of view, certainly. Great Britain had been first in the field, and in the struggle of the nations the first-comer naturally expects, if his strength fail not, to retain the prizes within his grasp. But the fact must not be overlooked that there is much to be said from the German point of View, and although the game of grab can never be a polite and gentle exercise, no player has really the right to complain if another is first in the field and secures the best stakes.
