This Country Of Ours
by H. E. Marshall Author
(From Amazon): Beginning with its English exploration and ending with Woodrow Wilson’s 20th century presidency, the growth of the United States is carefully chronicled in this 1917 text. H. E. Marshall’s dedication to the preservation of American history is evident in the details of this text, which features over a hundred different stories divided into seven headings. Despite it being nearly a century old, “This Country of Ours” is just as readable as it was when originally published.
