Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Iowa; The First Free State in the Louisiana Purchase: From Its Discovery to the Admission of the State Into the Union, 1673-1846 A resident of Iowa for sixty-one years, and an immediate observer of its growth and progress from a census of 75,152 in 1844 to 2,231,853 in 1900, I have cultivated a study of its history with some assiduity, and published a number of articles upon the subject in the "Annals of Iowa" and in the "Iowa Historical Record." The present volume is the outcome of these studies. It is not a history of Iowa after the admission of the State into the Union, but a record of the incidents in American history from 1673 to 1846, that made it "the first Free State in the Louisiana Purchase." I am happy to acknowledge my indebtedness for aid in my studies to my deceased friends, Lyman C. Draper and Theodore S. Parvin, and to James D. Butler, LL.D., of Madison, Wisconsin, and Charles Aldrich, Curator of the Historical Department of Iowa. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
