Francis Parkman, and his mother, Caroline Hall, were both descended from many generations that had lived since the days of the early Puritan settlement in the heart of New England. After an uneventful boyhood, Francis Parkman entered Harvard College in the year 1840. During his college course, as his biographer Mr. Farnham relates, he devoted himself with ardor and concentration to his special interests, the study of rhetoric and history, the pursuit of physical development, and a knowledge of the American wilderness.

Excerpt from With Wolfe in Canada: Or, the Winning of a Continent IN the present volume I have endeavored to give the details of the principal events in a struggle whose import ance can hardly be overrated. At its commencement the English occupied a mere patch of land on the eastern sea board of America, hemmed in on all sides by the French, who occupied not only Canada in the north and Louisiana in the south, but possessed a chain of posts connecting them, so cutting off the English from all access to the vast countries of the west. On the issues of that struggle depended not only the destiny of Canada, but of the whole of North America and.

Excerpt from Remarks on the Policy of Recognizing the Independence of the Southern States of North America: And on the Struggle in That Continent I AM neither statesman nor lawyer, but amid the multiplicity of despatches, pamphlets, and speeches regarding the war now raging in the United States, the words of an ordinary, and an unprejudiced person, who has seen a good deal of the World, may have some weight with others, who like myself, feel a deep interest in that terrible struggle. And who does not? I have been to America, and have listened to the tall talk of New York about squashing the South in ninety days, and to the very questionable philanthropy of New England in its protestations against slavery. But no one could tell me how their dicta were to be carried into practice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A History of the French War: Ending in the Conquest of Canada, With a Preliminary Account of the Early Attempts at Colonization and Struggles for the Possession of the Continent The history of the struggle between the Gaul and the Briton for possession of North America, though in form a straggling story, stretching over two centuries, ofiers one of the most interesting studies of national character and destiny. To treat it exhaustively in a volume like this was impossible, if not undesirable; but it is hoped that enough has been told to give the reader a clear idea of the character and sequence of all the significant events, and to suggest something of the philosophy of the long contest. A knowledge of this is absolutely necessary to any intelligent study of the subsequent history of our country.

Excerpt from A Paragraph History of the American Revolution This little book extends to the American Revo lution the method which, in A Paragraph History of the United States, was applied to the history of the continent and nation entire. To those who are familiar with the struggle of the Colonies for independence, it will perhaps seem more remark able for what it omits than useful for what it con tains. But it is not intended for those who are familiar with that struggle for such rather as have never read a history proper, or who have heard only by chance and uncertain mention what our country's fathers did, and in these busy cen tennial times have only moments by the way in which to trace the outline. I hear that the Para graph History of the United States has gone into a school here and there as a text-book: possibly this, too, may serve as an incentive and directory to that broader, deeper, fuller study which should hold a first place in the attention of every Ameri can, old and young.
