'It is not a book which you need knit your brows over, or in which you will find pages of facts, or politics, and long strings of dates. But it is a book, I hope, which when you lay it down will make you say, 'I’m glad that I was born an American. I’m glad that I can salute the stars and stripes as my flag.' - H.E.MOriginally written for younger readers but engaging enough for adults, This Country of Ours by H. E. Marshall brings the history of the United States to life in a sweeping narrative. From the age of exploration through the colonial era and into the nation’s early growth, she tells the story of America as a living drama shaped by courage, conflict, and ambition. With a storyteller’s gift, Marshall transforms historical events into vivid scenes and memorable portraits, making the past both accessible and compelling.This new edition comes with an Easy-to-Read Layout designed to make reading comfortable.
