The History of the United States may properly be arranged in six distinct periods, under the respective heads of: ** DISCOVERIES ** ** SETTLEMENTS ** ** COLONIES ** ** THE WAR FOR INDEPENDENCE OR THE POLITICAL REVOLUTION ** ** THE NATION ** ** THE CIVIL WAR OR THE SOCIAL REVOLUTION ** ** THE INDUSTRIAL AGE ** Volume I starts with a sketch of the several discoveries, actual and apocryphal, in America, which bear direct relations to the history of the Republic from the advent of the navigators of the North in the tenth and eleventh centuries, until Hudson and Champlain won their deserved honors. It also contains a history of the Indians found there. Continuing forward, events of several unsuccessful and successful efforts to plant settlements along the Atlantic coasts are notated, formatting the flourishing colonies to 1776. Entering this time is the great struggle which resulted in the political independence of the United States and the establishment of a national government in 1789 by the union of the several States under one supreme central power. Over the next 70+ years, accounts of the progress of the new nation are reported in great detail, such as the events of the early conflicts of the INDIAN WARS, THE WAR OF 1812 and the war with MEXICO from 1846-1848. The exciting and deeply impressive account of the CIVIL WAR is explored, which resulted in a great social revolution by the abolition of slave-labor throughout the Republic. After 1860 the Indian wars continued but they now took place West of the Mississippi; the heaviest fighting occurred on the Great Plains, but there was also intermittent warfare in the Southwest and Northwest. In these conflicts most of the fighting was done by the regular army. Additionally, historical important supplements are contained within Volume III such as the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE, THE ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION, THE U. S. CONSTITUTION and WASHINGTON’S FAREWELL ADDRESS. Reference tables from carefully compiled census are notated of: PRESIDENTS AND CABINET OFFICERS FROM 1789 TO DATE OF PUBLICATION STATISTICS OF TE POPULATION OF THE VARIOUS STATES STATISTICS OF THE NATIONAL FINANCES, EXPORTS, IMPORTS ETC.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Benson John Lossing (February 12, 1813 – June 3, 1891) was a prolific and popular American historian, known best for his illustrated books on the American Revolution and American Civil War and features in Harper’s Magazine. He was a Charter Trustee of Vassar College. In 1838, Lossing moved to New York City seeking greater opportunity as a journalist and illustrator. He edited and illustrated J.S. Rothchild’s weekly Family Magazine 1839-1841 and launched his literary career with the publication of his Outline of the History of Fine Arts. In 1846, he joined William Barritt in a wood engraving business that became one of the largest of such firms in New York. His illustrations appeared in the New York Mirror and several other periodicals. During this time, Lossing sat for a portrait by Thomas Seir Cummings (1804–1894), now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. Around 1848, Lossing conceived the idea of writing a narrative sketchbook on the American Revolution. The first installment was published in Harper’s New Monthly Magazine in 1850; the completed Pictorial Field-Book of the Revolution was published in 1853. To gather material for the work, Lossing traveled some 8,000 miles throughout the United States and Canada. As with his subsequent books, his pen and ink drawings served as the primary illustrations. The book won him critical acclaim and general reputation. During and after the Civil War, Lossing toured the United States and the once Confederacy. On the basis of that research, he published a three-volume pictorial field book/history of the war, which is also presumed to be Matthew Brady’s first collaboration in the use of his Civil War photographs as book illustrations. In 1860-1861, the London Art Journal featured a series of Lossing’s articles describing the history and scenery of the Hudson Valley; the illustrated articles were published in 1866 under the title The Hudson: From the Wilderness to the Sea. He was awarded an LLD by the University of Michigan in 1873. GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!!! Please see our other books too!
