Description

This eBook has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. "This history is intended to meet the want for brief, compact, and handy manuals of the beginnings of our country. In this volume, I have followed up to its legitimate ending the work done by the three great rival powers of modern times in civilizing our continent.
