Step inside the mind of a nation in the making, as recorded by one of its finest nineteenth-century historians. History here feels astonishingly present. In Volume V of Harper's Encyclopaedia of United States History, Benson John Lossing gathers concise entries that range across early United States history, colonial and revolutionary America, the forging of the Constitution, founding fathers biographies, westward expansion and the Civil War era overview, through to the close of the nineteenth century. Designed as a united states history encyclopedia and american history reference book, it marries the narrative richness of classic works in the George Bancroft United States history tradition with the accessibility of alphabetical arrangement, forming a backbone for any comprehensive US history collection or homeschool American history curriculum. Lossing's painstaking scholarship made him one of the trusted interpreters of the American past, and this volume remains invaluable for academic US history research and general readers alike. As a snapshot of how Americans at the dawn of the twentieth century understood their own story, it is both a guide to events and a historical artefact in its own right, standing alongside other Benson Lossing US history titles in shaping memory. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Perfect for anyone who enjoys browsing authoritative entries on 19th century American history and beyond, or for collectors seeking a heritage edition to anchor their shelves.
