Publisher's Synopsis
This Country Of Ours is a historical book written by H. E. Marshall. It is a comprehensive and engaging account of the history of the United States of America, from the arrival of the first European explorers to the end of the 19th century. The book is divided into 50 chapters, each of which covers a specific period in American history. Marshall provides detailed accounts of major events, such as the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the Reconstruction Era, as well as the lives of important figures like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Thomas Jefferson. The book also explores the social, economic, and cultural developments that shaped the nation over time. Written in a clear and accessible style, This Country Of Ours is an ideal resource for anyone interested in the history of the United States.The English too claimed the same land, and it was not until some years after the landing of the Pilgrim Fathers that the Dutch settled in the country. Then they formed a company and bought the Island of Manhattan where New York now stands from the Indians for about five pounds' worth of glass beads and other trifles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
