Excerpt from The Development of the United States From Colonies to a World Power
For over thirty years a new spirit has been gradually making its way into the study and interpretation of American history and taking other than political and military events into consideration. After the appearance of Bryce's American Commonwealth when institut ing a comparison of this work with de Tocque ville's, Emile Boutmy wrote: En un mot les etats-unis sont avant tout une société écono mique; ils ne sont qu'a titre secondaire une société historique et politique. Mcmaster's History of the People of the United States (1883) and Roosevelt's Winning of the West (1889) were indicative of the new history, while the greatest influence upon recent study has been exerted by Professor Frederick J. Turner through his classes and in his writings. Of the latter none has been more important than The Influence of the Frontier in Ameri can History, which appeared in the Annual Report of the American Historical Association for 1893.

Excerpt from The Development of the United States From Colonies to a World Power
Of American history becomes the expansion of a few thousand colonists, scattered along the Atlantic coast in the early seventeenth century, into a population of over one hundred millions, occupying the whole central portion of the North American continent and holding many outlying possessions. These people have devel Oped distinctive traits and institutions that have become known as American, and if they do not constitute a nation they are at least citi zens of a single great federal state, the United States of America. The original colonists were the subjects of European monarchs, and they have been joined by millions of people of all races and nationalities, mainly from monar chical states, yet they established and have maintained not the purest but the greatest democracy the world has known. From humble beginnings they have risen to a commanding position in the realm of industry and finance, and they have become one of the leading powers of the world.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book narrates the history of how several British colonies in North America transitioned from fledgling settlements to a global superpower. The author contends that economic factors, more so than the familiar political and military ones, catalyzed the development of the United States as it is known today. The book's exploration of the social and political consequences of the Industrial Revolution and the westward expansion provides a thorough examination of not only the origins of the United States but also the character and the motivations of its people. This book presents an illuminating and thought-provoking perspective on the evolution of the United States and the forces that shaped its growth from a group of colonies to a dominant world power. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
