Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A School History of Georgia: Georgia as a Colony and a State, 1733-1893 In comparison with most of the states which composed the original thirteen, Georgia has not a great deal of history, being the youngest tree that was planted by more than half a century. But that history is very interesting and should be made familiar to the young people, whether they be children of the state by nativity or adoption. This little book is not intended to embrace all of that history in its many details, but is merely an abridgment compiled from larger and more comprehensive works. It begins with Oglethorpe, the founder of the colony, and comes down through many changes, many disasters and successes to the present hopeful and prosperous condition. To this compilation have been added a few chapters concerning slavery, its origin, continuance and abolition. Also concerning the causes that provoked the late unhappy war and the results that followed in its wake. These historic readings contain the facts of the case - facts that have been established but have not heretofore been published in any book of history. The author regards these readings as especially important to the young people whose fathers and grandfathers fought in that war - fought for something they believed to be right.
