Description:Excerpt from History of the United States of America: For the Use of Schools The History of the United States, by Charles A. Goodrich, has been too long and too favorably known to the public to need any special introduction. But the country has passed through the most momentous years of its history since the last edition of that excellent and popular work was prepared, and to continue it to the present time, and yet keep the book within the proper limits of a text-book for schools, it has been necessary to rearrange and rewrite the earlier chapters to such an extent that the present revision differs as much from former editions as several of the school histories in common use differ from each other. In this edition the text is presented in type of two sizes. The matter in the larger type, by itself, forms a connected history, and may be sufficient for schools in which but a limited time can be devoted to the study; that in the smaller type goes more into detail, and may be made a part of the lessons for rigid preparation, or be merely read in connection with the closer study of the larger type, or be omitted altogether, at the option of the teacher. At the end of each Period is given a general view of the condition, not only of the original thirteen colonies, or what was, at the time, the United States, but of what has since been annexed. At the close of each Period is a Chronological Review, intended not merely for reference, but to be studied and committed to memory. It is believed that this purpose is better subserved by arranging the Reviews by Periods, than by bringing them together at the end of the book. Still further to adapt them to this end, only the leading events are given; the events are not merely enumerated, but are distinctly, though briefly, stated; and, in connected events, as in campaigns, pains have been taken to unite in one sentence those which are closely related.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
