Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Outlines of the Political History of Michigan This work was originally intended as a sketch to be used for the purposes of the Centennial Committee of Michigan, and was prepared in more haste than was otherwise desirable. The time allowed for it was not sufficient to permit any very extended researches among original materials. Although, for some twenty years past, the writer has made occasional collections of such material, yet his work must be regarded as largely compiled from his predecessors, who have been so frequently relied on that this general acknowledgment is more appropriate than would be any attempt to credit them in particular places. He has drawn freely from the Lanmans, and Mrs. Sheldon, from the "Historical Sketches of Michigan," and from the local sketches of Judge Witherell and Mr R. E. Roberts, as well as from Parkman and the French authors - especially Charlevoix, La Hontan, Hennepin, Tonty and Joutel, - correcting them, so far as he could, by the French documents. In matters concerning the War of 1812, Mr. Lossing´s "Field-Book" has been of much service Upon that war there is no lack of authentic documents and histories.
