Excerpt from Concise History of the American People, From the Discoveries of the Continent to the Present Time, Vol. 1 Elaborate histories of the United States have been ably written, while compends and school histories - well adapted to the place they are designed to fill - are numerous. Between these compends and the works extending from four to twelve volumes there is necessity, as well as room, for a history that shall be sufficiently elaborate to trace the direct influences that have had effect in moulding the character of the Nation and its institutions, moral and political - one that treats more fully of the "Inner Life" of the American people, and so constructed that the reader can obtain a clear conception of the forces that have made the Nation what it is. In accordance with this view, the present work is designed to present, as fully as is consistent with such a plan, those events which are interesting in themselves and characteristic of the times and people.
