A Short History of the United States for School Use is by Edward Channing. The preface says that the aim of the book is to tell in a simple and concise form the story of the founding and development of the United States.

Ribault is named as the commander of the French who next explored the shores of the Carolinas; sailing southward from Carolina, he discovered a beautiful river and called it the River of May.
After a long struggle Maine and Missouri were both admitted, the one as a free state, the other as a slave state. The Missouri Compromise is described as the work of Henry Clay.
