Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Our First Century It is the purpose of this book to present, on the basis of a connected narrative, a picture of life in America during the seventeenth century. The text-books used in the schools must cover the entire history of our country within a very brief space. They must, therefore, confine themselves to a brief recital of facts, chiefly political and military. The larger histories, in which life, manners, customs and the conditions governing them are treated with admirable scholarship, must of necessity be too voluminous and too costly to be available for the use of busy readers. In the present work the author seeks to give a popular account of the life, manners and customs of those who first planted English colonies along the Atlantic coast, and laid the foundations of our country.
