A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Owing to obstacles in the way of obtqning the necessary material, the history of Iowa has been little read and studied through its original sources. Scattered through various books and publications found in as many different collections and libraries, this material has been practically inaccessible to the general body of students. It is to obviate these difficulties, and to facilitate the adoption of scientific methods of study, that the documentary material contemplated in the title is brought forward and pub Hshed. It is also hoped that the present publications may encourage similar collections and publications in other states. For no part of American history has been so much neglected. It is practically an unexplored field: or. to use the words of the Hon. James Bryce, it is rather a primeval forest, where the vegetation is rank, and through which scarcely a trail has yet been cut. Perhaps no work at the present time would be more appreciated than the writing of state histories. I do not mean merely antiquarian or genealogical efforts, or the presentation of interesting reminiscences ;but histories, which, in discussing economic and industrial development, the jgrowth of institutions, principles of political organization, the content of administration, finance, etc., indicate, wherever it is possible, causal connections and relations.
