Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Heroes of Young America In the following pages it has been attempted to give some account of the English colonisation of the coast of North America and the foundation of that great country now known as the United States. On this side of the Atlantic, at least, the lives of the early adventurers who commenced and carried out that work are not so well known as they should be, though the record of their efforts is rich in incident, often of a thrilling kind, even surpassing that of the fictitious tales through which chiefly our young people got their impressions of America. What manner of men were those pioneers of civilisation, and what difficulties they had to encounter, I have tried to show in a narrative that, while not uninstructive, pretends to no grave and profound character.
