Excerpt from The History of the Louisiana Purchase This book undertakes to describe a trans action - the sale by the French Government to the United States of the western half of the Mississippi Valley, known at the time as Louisiana. At the fortunes of this vast re gion, known now as the Louisiana Purchase, before and since that sale this book does nothing more than glance in a cursory way it gives only so much as is needed to make plain the character and importance of the incident.

Excerpt from The Literature of the Louisiana Territory A large number of histories of the Louisiana Territory have been published within the past year, and several new ones are announced as shortly forthcoming. But no one has written a history of the literature of the Territory and the states and territories that have been carved out. Of Jefferson's great and wise purchase. Indeed, I do not believe that in our numerous reviews, magazines, literary journals and daily news papers, a single article has appeared on the subject. This book, is, therefore, a pioneer study. I have blazed the trail through old bookshops and public and private libraries from Minnesota to Louisiana, hunted in many a virgin field hitherto unexplored, and used the newspaper reporter's art of interviewing. I therefore do not hesitate to assert that a large amount of the data and the facts contained in this work, is placed before the reading public for the first time.

Excerpt from Louisiana Purchase: As It Was, and as It Is Some events cannot be fully measured at the time of their occurrence. It requires decades, even centuries, to disclose their full significance. Standing at the primal springs of a stream, one can but imperfectly judge what the stream may become before it shall meet and mingle with the sea. Little did either France or the United States dream, on that eventful last day of April, 1803. of all that lay in the sale by the one, and the purchase by the other, of the vast and unknown territory called "Louisiana." But at the distance of a century one is able to gauge somewhat the event that at one bold business stroke doubled the area of the young republic; and made possible the founding of a dozen great and masterful states. Next to the winning of our national independence, the purchase of Louisiana had perhaps the largest influence in the development of our country.

Excerpt from The World Aspects of the Louisiana Purchase Argument by title is a very attractive form of fallacy. We therefore freely confess that it is rather a thesis we have to establish than a theme to unfold when we speak of the Louisi ana purchase as a decisive epoch of general history and of American history in particular. Moreover, there is a sense in which every moment throughout the comparatively short duration of recorded history is a decisive one; in the pursuit of that idea the verge between sound, solemn truth, and fauci ful fiction is but a razor edge.
