Excerpt from Louisiana Purchase: As It Was, and as It Is Little did either France or the United States dream, on that eventful last day of April, 1803, of all that lay in the sale by the one, and the purchase by the other, of the vast and unknown territory called Louisiana. But at the distance of a century one is able to gauge somewhat the event that at one bold business stroke doubled the area of the young republic; and made possi ble the founding of a dozen great and masterful states. Next to the winning of our national independence, the purchase of Louisiana had perhaps the largest influence in the development of our country.

Excerpt from The Louisiana Purchase: And Its First Explorer, Zebulon Montgomery Pike At the opening of the nineteenth century Europe was one vast military camp. Upon the crimson crest of revolution Napoleon had ridden into power. The destinies of France were placed in his hands; and he led the devoted nation where he willed. The ambitious Corsican aimed not alone to control the nations of the old world, but he dreamed as well of empire in the new land that lay beyond the western sea. The gateway to the interior of the American continent was guarded by a French city. Over two centuries before, French explorers had driven the prows of their adventurous ships upon the coast of Louisiana, and in her soil planted a mighty cross and to it nailed the arms of France. Until 1762 the Lilies of France guided the infant destinies of the forest empire. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Brief History of the Louisiana Territory The extraordinary revival of interest in all sorts of information regarding the Louisiana Purchase calls for a historical manual, brief, accurate, and readable, which the extensive literature of the Territory docs not at present contain. This volume is an attempt to supply such a want. It consists of the revised copy of four lectures delivered before the Washington University Association on the Mary Hemenway Foundation. The author lays no claim to exhaustive use of original sources but has examined the wide range of literature touching upon the history of the Purchase Territory and accepted well authenticated facts wherever found. Special acknowledgments of aid and kindness are due to Miss Louise Dalton in charge of the Missouri Historical Society Library, 1600 Locust Street, and to Dean Marshall S.

Excerpt from The World Aspects of the Louisiana Purchase Argument by title is a very attractive form of fallacy. We therefore freely confess that it is rather a thesis we have to establish than a theme to unfold when we speak of the Louisi ana purchase as a decisive epoch of general history and of American history in particular. Moreover, there is a sense in which every moment throughout the comparatively short duration of recorded history is a decisive one; in the pursuit of that idea the verge between sound, solemn truth, and fauci ful fiction is but a razor edge.
