VOLUME 1 * THE NEW WORLD: Columbus's immense discover opened new lands and promised untold riches to a band of adventurous explorers. From Spain, Portugal, France, and England they came to seek their fortunes. Millions followed in their footsteps. Fleeing poverty, persecution, and oppression, they sought a bener life — and created a new nation.

But it was the men and women in the new land who braved the hardships and transformed the wilderness into a civilization. Why, they began to ask, should they contine to obey a British government that was growing more oppressive all the time? Vissza
