Excerpt from New America Some studies of past times, which have long occupied my pen, led me last summer to the James River and to Plymouth Rock. I'went out in search of an old world, and found a new one. East, west, north, and south, I met with new ideas, new purposes, new methods: in short, with a New America. The men who planted these Free States - doing the noblest work that England has achieved in history - were spurred into their course by two great passions; a large love ofl Liberty; a deep sense of Religion; and, in our Great Plantation, liberty and religion exercise a power over the forms of social' and do mestic life unknown at home. In the heart of solid societies and conservative churches we find the most singular doctrines, the most audacious experiments; and it is only after seeing what kind of forces are at work within them, that we can adequately admire the strength of these societies and churches.

Excerpt from America Discovered in the Tenth Century The discovery of America in the tenth century may justly be considered as one of the very remarkable events in the history of the world; and discerning posterity will not refuse to the hardy Scandinavians who effected it, that place in the world's annals, to which their achievements have given them an irrefragable title. Here, however, nothing is to be expected beyond a concise and summary view of the ancient historical events which occurred in America proper, and of such notices respecting the geography, hydrography, and natural history of that part.

Excerpt from The Story of the Old World an European Background to the Story of Our Country All of old-vvorld history is the New World's heritage; no historian dare assert in regard to the most remote and seemingly insignificant occur rence of ancient record that it had no influence upon the course of later human events. But there are certain events connected with earlier human progress that have had a direct and easily traceable influence upon our New - World destinies; a knowledge of these is essential to a full under standing and enjoyment of the story of our country. A committee of eight eminent teachers, report ing upon the study of American history in our schools, has declared that too much emphasis is placed upon the Atlantic Ocean as a barrier be tween the history of the New World and that of the Old. This book is written to meet that criticism. It is not a condensed general his tory. It is, in reality, the story of our country carried beyond and behind that wall habitually erected by earlier school historians upon the borders of the Atlantic.
