Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Frontier State, Vol. 2: 1818-1848 The time available for the writing of this volume was necessarily shortened by the entrance of the United States into the European war and my consequent decision to apply for admittance to a Reserve Officers´ Training Camp. The final revision was done during the short interval between the time when I was awarded my commission and the time of my reporting for duty. Much of the work of revision, therefore, that I should under normal conditions have done, I have of necessity intrusted to others. When I entered the training camp two chapters (8 and 21) were unwritten. Miss Agnes Wright, my assistant, has supplied these and, in addition, has given valuable assistance during the preparation of the manuscript of the entire volume. My brother, Albert A. Pease, has carefully read the volume in manuscript and has suggested many improvements in the text. The editor-in-chief of the series, Clarence W. Alvord, has very kindly added to the customary duties of an editor a care for details which of right falls to the author. I congratulate myself that in the emergency I have been able to draw on my friends for competent assistance ungrudgingly given. It is a pleasant duty to acknowledge my indebtedness to individuals not connected with the work of the Centennial Commission. I am under obligation to Mr. Milo M. Quaife for several Important suggestions and for permission to reproduce the copy of the Peck-Messenger map in the Wisconsin History Society´s library. Mrs. J. B. Dyche has assisted me with material of various sorts. The Chicago Historical Society through its librarian. Miss Caroline M. Mcilvaine, has accorded me every imaginable assistance and privilege in connection with the prosecution of the work in Chicago.
