Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Our Greater Country: Being a Standard History of the United States From the Discovery of the American Continent to the Present Time; Containing Accounts of the Discoveries and Explorations of the Norsemen, Spaniards, English and French
In the preparation of this volume, no authority of importance has been overlooked; the author has carefully searched every source of information open to him; and has availed himself of every fact that could throw new light upon, or impart additional interest to, the subject under consideration.
In the narration of military events, he has preferred to give each campaign as a whole rather than to mingle several by presenting the events in chronological order. At the same time he has sought to preserve the inter-relation of events in one field of Opera' tions to those in the others.
