The Foundations of American Nationality

The Foundations of American Nationality by Evarts Boutell Greene is a historical text that explores the development of American identity and nationalism from the colonial period to the early 20th century. The book delves into the various factors that contributed to the formation of a distinct American culture, including geography, religion, politics, and economics. Greene argues that the American national identity was shaped by a combination of external influences, such as European traditions and ideas, as well as internal factors, such as the struggle for independence and the Civil War. The book is divided into several sections, each focused on a different aspect of American history, including the colonial period, the Revolutionary War, the formation of the Constitution, and the Civil War. Throughout the text, Greene provides detailed analysis and interpretation of key events and figures, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln. The Foundations of American Nationality is a comprehensive and insightful look at the development of American identity and nationalism, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
