Step inside the mind of a nation in the making, told by one of its earliest popular historians. Every page holds the past. Volume VIII of Benson John Lossing's monumental Harper's Encyclopaedia of United States History from 458 A.D. to 1909 forms part of a classic american history reference encyclopedia that traces early America to 1909 with rare breadth and intimacy. Drawing on eyewitness accounts, public records and the scholarship of the 19th century United States, Lossing arranges people, events, battles, institutions and ideas into an accessible, richly illustrated united states history. From the colonial to Progressive era, from local episodes to national struggles, his entries illuminate the revolutionary war and Civil War, westward expansion, diplomacy, law, religion and everyday life in an engaging, American heritage style history. Long valued as both a reference book for historians and a dependable homeschool American history resource, Harper's US history encyclopedia speaks equally to curious general readers and serious researchers. It captures not only what happened, but how Americans of its own time understood their political and social institutions, making it an indispensable guide to American political and social history and a cornerstone of any multi volume US history collection. 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.
