Excerpt from Young Folks' Book of American Explorers It has always seemed to me that the narratives of the early discoverers and explorers of the American coast were as interesting as "Robinson Crusoe," and were, indeed, very much like it. This has led me to make a series of extracts from these narratives, selecting what appeared to me the most interesting parts, and altering only the spelling. The grammar is not always correct; but it would be impossible to alter that without changing the style of writing too much: so it has not been changed at all. Wherever it has seemed necessary, I have put a word of my own in brackets [thus]; but all else is the very language of the old writers, or their translators. Whenever any thing has been omitted, great or small, the place is marked by dots... Some of the hardest words have been explained by footnotes. One great thing which I have wished my readers to learn is the charm of an original narrative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Historicals for the Young Folks The time will probably never come when the school histories of America shall be so crowded With valuable records that there will not be room for a sketch of the lives of Columbus and 'washington. Still, there are many interesting biographies and incidents for which there is not space in those books for anything more than a passing notice. We are well aware that there are large historical works where all these subjects are thoroughly handled by abler pens than our own, but there are many readers who do not have access to such books. Our object has been to collect and arrange, in the form of a continuous narrative, an account of a few charac ters and events in so small a volume that it shall be within the means of all who wish to obtain more information on these topics than is given in works prepared only for study.
