About this book
Treating the colonial era as the childhood of the nation, John Bach McMaster, professor of American history at the University of Pennsylvania, wrote this textbook in 1897 and kept that period to the events needed to understand what followed 1776. It covers Spanish, English, Dutch, Swedish and French settlement, the Indians, life in the colonies in 1763, the stamp tax quarrel and the war for independence, the Confederation and the Constitution, the second war with Britain, the rising West, the growth of the slave area, and progress between 1840 and 1860. Industrial growth after 1815 gets fuller treatment, and footnotes point to reference books.
