Excerpt from The Making of Illinois: A History of the State From the Earliest Records to the Present TimeNotwithstanding the fact that there is so much that is honorable and glorious in her steady progress, from a wilderness of prairies to a great and populous State, the history of Illinois is unfamiliar to most of her citizens. The youth in her public schools are better acquainted with the early history of Virginia, or Massachusetts, than with the stirring events connected with the establishment of their native State, and we should encourage our boys and girls in the study of the history of their State and strengthen the love for Illinois.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
