A Child’s Story of America
A Child’s Story of America gives younger readers an age-appropriate and engaging look at our nation’s history. You do not need to sit and dream about how the wonderful work of building our noble nation was done, for you can read it all here.
Hear how brave explorers came over the seas and found beyond the waves a land none of them had ever seen before. See how they settled on these shores, cut down the trees and built villages and towns, met the Indians and learned to cultivate the land, and made themselves homes in the midst of fertile fields.
What else is covered in this book?
The history of the past two hundred years is a story of a God-blessed land. In it you will learn of…
- How the steamboat first arrived and in time spread to all our rivers and lakes
- How railways sprung up — until they are now long enough in our country to go eight times round the earth
- The marvels of the telegraph and telephone – the talking wire
- The machines that rumble and roar in a thousand factories and work away like living things
- A multitude of computer-driven marvels
This little history shows how, from a few half-starved settlers on a wild coast, this great nation has grown up. We need say no more, however, for the book has its own story to tell.
