Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Talvi´s History of the Colonization of America, Vol. 1 of 2 That part of American history which I here present to my countrymen has not as yet been given by any German sufficiently in detail. Edeling is, so far as I know, the only German who has attempted it. But in his time many of the principal sources of information, a knowledge of which alone could impart a just idea of the then existing state of things, had not yet been brought to light; nay, many parts of the history of New England lay buried in complete obscurity; as, for instance, the first periods of the colonization of Providence and Rhode Island. The same might be said of such English historians of America as were accessible in Germany, Neal, Oldmixon, Robertson, &c. I therefore thought, though conscious my powers were inferior to the task, yet aware I was favourably situated with regard to sources of information, that I should be undertaking no useless labour in offering to the world a small portion of the history of a country, which is evidently tending towards a most important part in the great drama of the world. Even in the United States an interest in the history of the fatherland is new. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
