This chart is arranged in three plates and is so planned that the
history of any State may be traced from date of discovery to the present
time. Or the important items of history in any period may be quickly
ascertained.
For example, the question is asked, "Name the divisions of this country
in the year 1600 in order of size?" Turning to the circle for this
period the answer is easily ascertained, and is "Province of Louisiana,
New Spain, Virginia, Florida."
"What State was named first; give its history?" Answer, "Florida,
discovered in 1512 by De Leon; ceded to England by Spain in 1763; ceded
back to Spain 1783; ceded to United States 1819."
To obtain an answer to such questions from any history would necessitate
a waste of much time. This chart is in itself an
=Encyclopedia of U. S. History=
and will prove invaluable to a school. It furnishes material for study,
for composition, for examinations and reviews, for topical work, and an
unlimited amount of other work.
PLATE I.--Contains Discoveries, Settlements, People, Cessions of
Territory, Wars.
PLATE II.--States East of Mississippi, Governments, Governors,
Presidents, Wars, Battles, Massacres, Rebellions, Population, Capitols,
Indian Wars, Religious Denominations, Universities, Colleges, Births and
Deaths of Statesmen, Soldiers, Poets, Historians, Philosophers,
Theologians, and Events.
PLATE III.--Contains the same information in regard to States west of
the Mississippi; also an outline showing the political changes, the
origin, growth, and changes in the great political parties.
It is not always possible for a school to invest this amount of money at
one time; the chart will therefore be sold on terms that will place it
within the reach of every one. Fill out the blank below, enclose $3.00,
and chart will be forwarded at once to your address.
