Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 2 It was to the great company of Spanish explorers that the task of tracing the dim outline of the double continents fell. And what dazzling names these men have left on the pages of history! Balboa, Cortez, Pizarro, De Soto, Ponce de Leon, and Coronado! True, it was the insatiable thirst for wealth that led men on; but the credit is none the less theirs. From Vespucci's time their vision grew year by year as their quest for riches hastened their feet, now north to Florida and the Mississippi, now south to Columbia and Venezuela, now west to Yucatan, Mexico, and the expanding Pacific, and thence south once more to the golden glory of Peru.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 11 California and all its gold were won; New Mex1co and Arizona, youngest of our commonwealths, became ours both by conquest and fair purchase; and in the north the Ore gon country, long in dispute, now settled itself in safety beneath the flag. The strip of English-speaking people along the Atlantic coast begins to balance itself with a similar fringe on the Pacific, from Columbia to N oma Point, of eager, alert, pushing Americans. The Red Frontier, which had always lain to westward, was now pushed back from the West to meet the East, and the peaceful occupation of the Louisiana Purchase was assured by the mighty reach' of the nation from ocean to ocean. History can never be more interesting than here, where every gallant deed is the forerunner of a greater gallantry in the crisis which threatens from the generation yet to come. Of a piece with it is the romantic interest in the book, which binds the history into an engrossing whole. On the field of battle the descendants of Stevens the Cavalier and Stevens the Pilgrim meet the lost remnant of the Este van family, sprung from Felipe, the grandson of Hernando, companion to Columbus, who had sought the family fortunes among his fellow Spaniards in Mexico. Romance and history combine, each adding interest to the other as it receives interest from the other, until before the reader's eyes stands a picture of a puissant nation, planted firmly on the shores of this earth's two greatest seas, at last and always The Great Republic.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 7 England and France, engaged in a duel too momentous to be finished within the limits of a single volume, are herein shown struggling for the rich prize of temperate North America. When France lost her foot hold in Florida, religious liberty failed in its first attempt to establish itself in what is now the United States. The attempt was not renewed until the death of Philip II relieved Europe of the terror he had inspired; yet even then France set her new colony in the bleaker North, far removed from the territories of Spain. Quebec was planted at almost the same instant as James town, the chief idea being not so much the settlement of the land as the exploitation of its resources. Both France and England rooted themselves deeply, but with a difference: New France remained subject to the whims of a tyrant and his tools, while Virginia began almost immediately the contest for self-government, and the Plymouth colony framed its own constitution while still on board the Mayflower. Both England and France saw their colonies grow, even beyond their own earlier ambitions. With every inch added to their stature, the prize to be fought for grew greater, the necessity for the duel inevitable. We live through thought movements, and our lives, individual and national, are the outward expression of them. In the previous volumes the undercurrents may be traced which in this book come to the surface. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 6 Between the two groups of English colonies north and south, Holland in the previous generation had driven the little wedge of New Netherland. European wars now gave the excuse needed, and the free flag of the States General gave place to the standard of Saint George and Saint Andrew. By this change, the long Atlantic reach became English, and the energies of the race began that strenuous westerly advance which enables every American to boast of pioneer blood. The first red frontier extended not a furlong from the ocean rollers; every step westward was made in the face of savage resistance. With isolated exceptions, every town in America was once a frontier village, the streets of which echoed to the war-whoop of the Indian. These outposts maintained themselves against the ferocities of the aborigines by the sheer use of the weapons of war. The struggle with the austerities of nature was only less desperate. American liberty, child of independence and self-reliance, was born upon this frontier. When it blazed red with the torch of Philip, the Wampanoag chief, New Eng land came together as one man in self-defense - and the Dutch stood beside them on the firing-line. When the Indians of Virginia made lamentable alliance with the vicious Berkeley, who held his profitable traffic with them above the lives and property of his colonists, the spirit flared forth in Nathaniel Bacon, that voice in the wilderness crying out to men to rid themselves of despots.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 5: On Savage Shores, the Age of Consolidation, 1620-1643 But, however limited the tolerance in religion, these colonists of English speech and tradition brought with them a measure of civil liberty unknown in the world else where. The voyagers on the Mayflower entered into a solemn compact for self-government which left them, except for a commercial contract with the Plymouth company, virtually independent of the world. Less than a score of years later, the new colony of Connecticut formally executed a constitution so broad in its principles that it remains to this day as a complete form of civil order, containing within itself every essential feature of the fundamental laws of the Federal Government and Sovereign States of the Union. It left Connecticut for twenty years as free from external control as any State of Europe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance The world's greatest historians to the present time have sought to put the interest of fiction into their work, but they have been so limited by the narrative style adopted that only a few of the greatest have been even fairly successful.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 10: With Reading Courses, Being a Complete and Authentic History The Real America in Romance may be used in several ways. The volumes may be placed in the hands of young persons to be read simply as stories, allowing them to acquire incidentally such historical information as may linger in their memories; they may be used by independent students, young or old, who wish to gain a general knowledge of the history of our country in an interesting and easy manner; or they may be used by teachers and parents in class work. It is as an aid to teachers and independent students that the Notes and Reading Courses in connection with the Real America in Romance have been devised. The several stories which comprise the series present, in one way and another, all the main facts of American history; but naturally a story can not be overloaded with details of events occurring outside of its immediate sphere. Such additional material as may be necessary to give a more comprehensive view of the course of events, but which could not consistently be placed in the general narrative, has been thrown into these notes.

Excerpt from Romance and Reality, Vol. 2 of 3 "Those first affections, Which, be they what they may, Are yet the fountain light of all our day."

Wordsworth. Of all passions, love is the most engrossing and the most superstitious. How often has a leaf, a star, a breath of wind, been held as an omen!

Excerpt from Spanish America, Vol. 2: Its Romance, Reality and Future A sea-wall of solid masonry, a rampart upon whose flat top we may walk at will, presents itself to the winds and spray. That blow in from the Gulf of Darien upon the ancient city of Cartagena, and the booming of the waves there, in times of storm, might be the echo of' the guns of Drake, for this rampart was raised: along the shore in those days when he and other famous sea rovers ranged the Spanish Main, over which Cartagena still looks out.
