Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Documentary History of the State of Maine, Vol. 7: Containing the Farnham Papers; 1603 1688 This compilation of "Documents Relating to the Territorial History of Maine" is the expansion of the results of a year´s work under the direction of Professor Hart, in connection with the Seminary of American History and Institutions at Radcliffe College. With the belief that such a collection may prove a valuable aid to students of Maine history the work has been completed in its present form. In order to bring the series into reasonable limits it has been necessary to exclude all grants which led only to discovery or exploration, although England rests her claim to North America on the voyages of the Cabots. The beginning of the seventeenth century, under the patent to De Monts, witnessed the first permanent settlement within the limits investigated in connection with the present work. To bring together in chronological sequence documents that elucidate the leading facts, both in territorial development and the changes of government from 1603 to the present time, is the purpose of this compendium. In selecting the sources from which these documents have been taken, the method adopted has been to choose what seemed the best available text; in all cases the original, if that has been accessible, otherwise an authentic transcript or reprint. The head-notes which accompany each document are mainly designed to give a history of the sources as well as their bearing upon Maine history. A special bibliography is also given in each case.
