Book Description
Excerpt from Our Beginnings in Europe and America The history of the United States is a branch of the history of the world. Life in America is a transplanted European life. Its development here has been largely determined by new world conditions, but its origins were in Europe or even in that older world about the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea. As civilization has been handed on from race to race during the ages, each people has. added its own peculiar contribution to it. Primitive men who lived before the dawn of history, the earliest civilized nations of the Old East, the Hebrews, the Greeks, the Romans, the English, and all the other European nations whose sons had a hand in colonizing America were the makers of our civilization. Our life today cannot be fully understood without adding to a clear knowledge of its growth in America an appreciation of our debt to each of the races who were our cultural ancestors. This book is an attempt to tell in a plain and simple way the story of the growth of our civilization from its earliest beginnings in prehistoric times, to point out the contribution to it made in turn by each of the great peoples of the Old World, and to show how in the fullness of time it was transferred from Europe to America. The sub-title of the book - How Civilization Grew in the Old World and Came to the New - exactly expresses its theme.
