Opis: A Child's History of North Carolina (Classic Reprint) - Allen W. C.

Excerpt from A Child's History of North Carolina

In this volume I have endeavored to give the leading facts in the history of North Carolina, a task, which has occupied much of my spare time for the last ten years. Among the abundance of material, so well prepared by patriotic North Carolinians, it has been difficult to select that which has been most suitable for a book intended for use in the public schools. The most reliable sources have been assiduously consulted, and it is believed that the story of the making of North Carolina herein presented is entirely trustworthy.

Constant use, in making comparisons, has been made of the "old masters" in North Carolina history. The pages of Francis X. Martin, Francis L. Hawks, E. W. Caruthers, and Joseph H. Wheeler, who wrote so entertainingly of the Colonial history of the State, of John W. Moore, who rescued much of our history from oblivion, and of the monumental tasks of Romulus M. Saunders and Judge Walter Clark, known as the Colonial and State Records, have contributed many hours of pleasure and profit in the preparation of this volume now being sent upon its mission. Much time has been spent in comparing these authorities on disputed points with the hope that the exact truth might be obtained.
