Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of Howard County Indiana, Vol. 1 Soon after beginning the editing of the History of Howard County, at the request of B. F. Bowen & Company, two facts became Very prominent. The first was that the undertaking was greater than at first appeared and the other was that there are now very, very few of the pioneers remaining to rehearse the beginnings of Howard County history. It is largely now the verifying and arranging such historical matter as has heretofore been published, supplemented by matters already known by the writer, and others, gathered from old newspapers and the few survivors of a far away time. In preparing this work it has seemed very unfair and short sighted to assume that all this magnificent country should have remained idle and unused by man for thousands of years until seventy years ago, for the coming of the white man, and so I have devoted a chapter to the Mound Builders and another to their successors - the Indians. Since the coming of the white man I have tried to describe conditions as they were in the beginning and the many changes he has wrought along the various lines of life. This work has been largely along general lines. The limits of this work have precluded the going into the purely local and individual. There have been certain individual schools of more than passing importance, as the Old Normal and some out township schools, of which it would have been a real pleasure to have written.
