North Amer During The 18th Cen PDF Download

Excerpt from North America During the Eighteenth Century: A Geographical History It is not possible to acknowledge our indebtedness to all the sources from which we have obtained ideas and facts and it did not seem wise to overload the book with foot notes. While we record, in this general way, our obligations to many writers and teachers, we may be allowed to mention specifically the works of Francis Parkman - notably his Montcalm and Wolfe as a source of inspiration - and the series of Historic Highways of America, by A. B. Hulbert, as a mine of topographical and historical facts. We are grateful to the Syndics of the Cambridge University Press for permission to use Figs. 13, 15 and 18 and to the Census Bureau of the United States for Fig. 22. The sketch maps have been specially drawn with a View to providing in a simple form the equivalent of a teacher's black-board sketches.
