This is a history of Switzerland written by reformer Heinrich Zschokke, who became Swiss later in his life. From the preface: "WHILE studying the history of Switzerland on Swiss soil, I was charmed by the simple beauty, the conciseness and impartiality of Zschokke's popular work, which is used as a textbook in many, if not in all, of the Confederate Cantons; and, with the assent of pastor Emil Zschokke of Aarau, the worthy continuer of his late celebrated father's labors, I made the following translation from the ninth enlarged edition. Having myself felt a want of information on the subject, I now present this translation to my fellow-citizens of these United States, in the hope that a more extended acquaintance with the history of our sister republic may teach us to shun the perils through which the Swiss people have passed at the cost of so much suffering, and may aid us to appreciate our own more favorable position as a nation."

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1860 edition. Excerpt: ...as bailiff, and to manage without question the estates of all churches and curacies; the right of hunting and fishing; afterwards (1543), the appointment of pastors to all the churches, of recorders and constables (1555), and the power to grant the right of citizenship (1596). Finally all general and other assemblies of the people were forbidden, and the military power passed entirely into the hands of the bishop (1654). Then he ruled as he pleased; allowed forced recruiting for foreign service; filled all offices with his own creatures; looked on with indifference when magistrates and convents, by craft and intrigues, obtained possession of the best estates, or when the public fines were raised to exorbitant sums. At last abbot Leodegar Burgisser thought himself absolute master in the land. He ordered the people to build and maintain, at their own expense, a new highway through the Hummelwald. And when the delegates of the people represented to him that this was a more grievous burden on the Toggenburgers than the old labordues and day-service from which they had twice ransomed themselves, he condemned these men to a fine of 1540 crowns, compelled them to recant in open court, and deprived them of civil rights. Then (1701) the oppressed Toggenburgers laid their complaints before Schwyz and Grlarus. Glarus was touched by the sufferings of the poor country-people; as was Schwyz, although the Toggenburgers were of the reformed faith. "Even if the Toggenburgers were Turks and Heathens," said the Schwyzers in general assembly, "they are nevertheless our Confederates and fellow-countrymen, and we will see justice done to them." This displeased the abbot and he appealed to all the cantons, invoking the Confederate right....
