Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Paragraph History of the United States From the Discovery of the Continent to the Present Time: With Brief Notes on Contemporaneous Events, Chronologically Arranged
This little book is Intended for the use of those Americans who, at this centennial period, wish to refresh their memories as to some main facts in their country's history, and have only a few mo ments to do it in. The essential service of larger and fuller works, it does not pretend to render. Nor does it profess to name every event, or to mention every date, which belongs to the national growth; but only a few that are chief. It simply presents a skeleton of American history, with perhaps some bones missing at that all the ?esh for which must be found by other reading.
