A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

Excerpt from Centennial Book of Reference TI - ie'city of Philadelphia was founded in 1682 - 3, by William Penn, who with a colony of Friends, had come to America to settle a tract of land, granted to him by King Charles II, in payment of a debt due by Government to his father. Before attempting any overt acts of sovereignty, however, Penn acknowledged and purchased the rights of aborigines, and thus signalized his arrival by an act of equity, which made his person and his prin ciples, equally beloved. In drafting the plan of his American City, Penn is supposed to have in view the celebrated City of Babylon, which he certainly imitated in the regularity of the streets, and which he seemed desirous to emulate in size. In 1701, however, the plan was much contracted, and the city was declared to be bounded by the two rivers, Delaware and Schuylkill, and Vine and (cedar) South streets, as the north and south boundaries.
