Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the United States of America, Vol. 4: From the Discovery of the Continent While the delegates of the twelve colonies were in session in Philadelphia, ninety of the members just elected to the Massachusetts assembly appeared on Wednesday, the fifth of October, at the court-house in Salem. After waiting two days for the governor, they passed judgment on his unconstitutional proclamation against their meeting; and, resolving themselves into a provincial congress, they adjourned to Concord. There, on the eleventh, the members, about two hundred and sixty in number, elected John Hancock their president. On the four teenth, they sent a message to the governor, that for want of a general assembly they had convened in congress; and they remonstrated against his hostile preparations. A committee from wvorcester county made to him similar representations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States of America, Vol. 4 of 5: A Pictorial History of the American Nation From the Earliest Discoveries and Settlements to the Present Time That portion of the history of the United States which has developed since 1870 may be properly termed the commercial period. Prior to that date the people were occupied in exploration and discovery, the establishment of permanent homes, methods of government, and the great questions that precipitated the struggle between sections, known as the Civil War. With the termination of that struggle the people of the common Union began to realize the great commercial possibilities of their country - a country whose area, including Alaska, added in 1867, was practically.equal to that of all Europe. When the Civil War began in 1861, comparatively little was known about the great section lying west of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. A few railroads had stretched as far west as the Mississippi River, and a small number of enterprising lines had found their way across that stream and were feeling their way into the then thinly populated section west of the Mississippi. The railroads of the United States in i 860 aggregated but 30,000 miles in length, or about one-seventh as much as to-day, and the cost of transporting a bushel of wheat from Chicago to New York was about five times as great as at the present time. As a consequence, millions of acres of fine agricultural lands in the interior were unoccupied, or utilized only for grazing purposes. The importance of the development of these great interior sections and of a connection of the western with the eastern coast had been realized during the years of the Civil War, and as a result of legislation begun in 1863 and consummated in 1864, the Union and Central Pacific railroads were begun and the work completed in 1869, thus giving to the country in that year a single transcontinental line. Other lines in the interior, which soon followed, gave opportunity for the gradual development of the producing power of that great section of the country which had been practically unoccupied and a part of which had been formerly designated as "The Great American Desert."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Republic, Vol. 4 of 18: Or a History of the United States of America, the Administrations, From the Monarchic Colonial Days to the Present Times Thomas Jefferson was accustomed to put the writing of the Declaration of Independence at the head of all his performances, and believed that this deed alone was enough to keep his name forever green in the memory of his countrymen. Washington's great and beneficial services, and extraordinary influence over the American people in shaping their national destiny, attached to him the imperishable distinction of "Father of his Country." The earnest, honorable, and influential part Mr. Madison took in the success of the Constitution and the establishment of the National Government gained for him, quite widely in the political literature of his times, the honor of being the "Father of the Constitution." However doubtful may be deemed the propriety of this application to any one man, there can be no disputing about the general fact touching the great importance of Mr. Madison's services in the establishment of this Government. If his influence in Virginia in leading to the adoption of the Constitution was not next to that of Washington, his unceasing, wise, and persevering efforts to that end were much greater.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Republic of the United States of America, Vol. 4: As Traced in the Writings of Alexander Hamilton and of His Cotemporaries Having given, in the previous volumes of this work, a history of the origin and rise of the Republic of the United States of America, "as traced in the writings of Alexander Hamilton and of his cotemporaries," it is now proposed, by an exhibition of facts derived from these and other sources of information, to present a larger portraiture of the organization and early administrations of the present National Government, of its domestic and foreign policy, of its parties and chief actors, than has hitherto been delineated. The great standard work on American history is justly admitted to be that of Chief Justice Marshall, entitled, "The Life of George Washington." Deriving his statements chiefly from the papers of that illustrious patriot, preserved by himself, with studious care, as monuments of the history of a people he had so well served, nothing can be more generally authentic. But, its author being a participant in many of the events which had occurred, and restrained by his elevated station, is seen to have been very guarded and heedful in his presentment of the motives, conduct, and characters of men then filling high places. Indeed, at the time he wrote, a fuller presentation would have been as difficult as unwise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Country, Vol. 4 of 6: A Household History of the United States for All Readers, From the Discovery of America to the Present Time The winter of 1779 - 80 was very severe. The salt waters that surround New York city were so bridged with solid ice that the British took heavy cannons across from that town to Staten Island. The Continental Army, as we have observed, were encamped chie y in New Jersey, and the British occupied the city of New York. The snow lay so deep on the ground that both armies were compelled to remain quiet several weeks. When the spring opened, the troops under the direct command of Washington num bered less than four thousand effective men; and between the Chesapeake and the northern and eastern frontiers of the Union, there were not more than seven thousand Continental soldiers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Country, Vol. 4 of 8: A History of the United States, From the Discovery of America to the Present Time The American commander had now achieved a mighty victory. Viewed in all its varied aspects, Frederick the Great of Prussia declared the exploits of the Patriot and his handful of followers, between Christmas and Twelfth Day, the most brilliant of any recorded in the annals of military achieve ments. At the very moment when his army appeared to be on the verge of dissolution, Washington struck a blow so powerful that it paralyzed the enemy. It broke up the British and Hessian cantonments upon the Dela ware, and made Cornwallis anxious to secure quarters nearer New York, under the protection of General Howe. It caused Howe to recall a brigade from Rhode Island to strengthen his force at New York; and it was not long before the British were driven to near the sea-shores of New Jersey, and held posts only at New Brunswick, Amboy, and Paulus Hook (now Jersey City), for Washington, with his army encamped in huts at Morris town, was not idle. He had established cantonments from Princeton on the right, under the command of General Putnam, to the Hudson Highlands on the left, under General Heath. He was in the midst of hills, a fertile country teeming with abundance, and generally patriotic inhabitants. His little expeditions sent out to harass the enemy were conducted with so much spirit, that the British were kept in continual dread. The people were thereby encouraged; their martial spirit seemed to revive, and early in the spring of 1777, the thinned battalions of the army began to fill up. The Continental Congress, which had fled to Baltimore, satisfied that immediate danger was past, returned to Philadelphia early in March, and resumed their sessions there. And the people of New Jersey, of whom not more than a hundred had joined Washington in his retreat from the Hudson to the Delaware, and who, to the number of almost three thousand, had subscribed to a declaration of fidelity to the king, seeing the changed aspect of affairs, and having suffered dreadfully from the unbridled passions of the British and Hessian soldiers exercised on friend and foe alike, now became active partisans of the republican cause. A feeling of revenge gave strength to their purpose and arms. Their action was doubtless accelerated by a proclamation of Washington issued late in January, who, in the exercise of the discretion given him by Congress, demanded, in the name of the asso ciated States, that all who had taken British protection, and professed fidelity to the crown, should take an oath of allegiance to the United States of America, or withdraw within the British lines.
