Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of the Western Reserve of Connecticut This volume is intended to present in a convenient form, gathered from many sources, the leading facts concerning the Western Reserve of Connecticut. There is no book that treats the subject in this way, and it is therefore believed that such a work will be of general interest, not only to the present residents of this Paradise of Ohio, to whom it is addressed ; but also to those whose early lives were spent here, and to whom now, as they wander far from the old home, "Fond memory brings the light of other days." We who reap where others sowed can enter into the full appreciation and enjoyment of our possessions only through a study of the conditions that have made those possessions possible. This book is an introduction to that profitable and inspiring study. Early Workers. For much of their knowledge of the early days on the Reserve, and particularly of early Cleveland, readers of history are indebted to Col. Charles Whittlesey, Judge C. C. Baldwin, Hon. Harvey Rice, and others. The adventures, privations, and fortitude of the early settlers have been pictured by these writers in a style that is highly entertaining. To a full and unreserved acknowledgment of the help afforded by the researches of these pioneers in the field, it is not necessary to add an apology for attempting, not a repetition of what they have so well done; but a work of somewhat broader scope, and therefore, of more general interest.
