It is the design of this work to narrate, ma clear, simple, and intelligible manner, the leading events connected with the history of our country, from the earliest periods, down, as nearly as prac ticable, to the present time. The several volumes will be illustrated with all necessary maps and with numerous engravings, and the work is intended to comprise, in a distinct and connected narrative, all that it is essential for the general reader to understand in respect to the subject of it, while for those who have time for more extended studies, it may serve as an introduction to other and more copious sources of information.
