Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Augusta County, Virginia in the History of the United States In this astonishing array of men and women from Augusta county, Virginia, the author has given from his collections names of the period, 1735-1815, which are not found in the index of the "Descriptive List of the Manuscript Collection of the State Historical Society of ´Wisconsin," containing the Draper collections, valued at several hundred thousands of dollars. The Draper collections extend over the years, 1735-1815, and the field east of the Mississippi, with some trans-Mississippi material, such as that on the Lewis and Clark expedition. The writer of this study has investigated others after 1815 all over the United States, whom he shows. He has also ascertained the origin of literary people of southern antecedents whose names are not furnished by Lucian Lamar Knight´s biographical dictionary in the "Library of Southern Literature." The author indicates for the first time in print the fountain head of many great Americans. There are here hundreds of names not in the two histories of Augusta county by two talented sons of Virginia, Joseph A. Waddell and John Lewis Peyton. He intimates he may have missed some who should appear, but no history is ever complete. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
