Excerpt from History of the United States of America, Vol. 1 of 3 No other work on American history, except mere compends and abridgments, embraces the same extent of time; none comprehends the same cir cuit of inquiry, or has any thing like the same plan and objects. Nowhere else can be found in the same distinct completeness the curious and instructive story of New England theocracy, the financial, economical, and political history of the colonies and the Revolution, the origin and shap ing of our existing laws and institutions, state and national, the progressive, social, and intellectual development of our people.

Excerpt from A Complete History of the United States of America, Embracing the Whole Period From the Discovery of North America, Down to the Year 1820, Vol. 1 of 3 To shew that one supreme eternal God created the universe, and by His almighty fiat, spake all worlds into existence, with all beings that inhabit them; that His superintending providence preserves and governs all things, that His wisdom regulates and controuls all events, that the smallest as well as the largest, arc equally the objects of His care; "not a sparrow fatleih to the ground without His notice, and even the hairs of our heads are all numbered, was the great object of my Sketches of Universal History. To illustrate this great truth, I have there traced the history of the family of man, from the creation to the flood, and from the flood down to the present lime, and shewn the special government of God, as displayed to the world, in the rise and fall of states and empires: all which events have fulfilled a succession of general as well as a particular prophecies, predicted by the prophets, hundreds and thousands of years before they were accomplished. To shew the same superintending power, wisdom, and government of God, in planting his church in this wilderness of the west, and thus laying the foundation of a great nation, which has grown up and taken its rank amongst the free and enlightened nations of the earth, is also the great design of this work. To illustrate this design, I have traced the rise and progress of navigation, by the way of Introductory Remarks, through a period of about 3500 years, down to the time of the discovery of America by Columbus; the settlement of Hispaniola, and the conquest of Mexico and Peru by Cortes and Pizarro.

Excerpt from The United States of America, Vol. 1 of 5: A Pictorial History of the American Nation From the Earliest Discoveries and Settlements to the Present Time Not less wonderful is the story of the subsequent growth of the Colonies, of the many incidents attending the War of 1812, of the Mexican War, and Of the tremendous struggle to save the Union. Although strife and war have played a very conspicuous part in the growth of our country, yet we must not forget that we have enjoyed many years of peace and prosperity, and the extraordinary progress we have made during the last hundred years or more has astonished the world and even ourselves. No nation to-day is making history more rapidly than the United States. Especially true is this of the closing years of the nineteenth and the opening years Of the twentieth centuries. Our short but decisive war with Spain focussed on us the attention of the civilized world, and started us on that career of wider participation in international affairs which, for good or for evil, we must henceforth pursue. How we shall discharge the obliga tions we have assumed only time can show; but the sterling qualities of the national character will undoubtedly in the end guide the nation to lofty ends and make it the defender of the weak and the champion of justice among the peoples. In the broad domain Of humanity, in the ever widening fields of invention, discovery, science, art, education and literature, and in fact of all that tends to make the life of a nation truly great, the United States of America stands to-day in the front ranks. This wonderful national and material development of the country should at least inspire us to a more earnest and intelligent study of its wonderful history, which cannot fail to be of the most instructive and profoundly interesting character to every patriotic citizen, especially to the rising generation of our beloved country - the home of Washington and of Lincoln.
