Description
Offered here is the Revised and Enlarged edition of Young Folks’ History of America by Hezekiah Butterworth, published circa 1900 by The Werner Company. This richly illustrated hardback volume delivers a sweeping, story-driven account of American history designed especially for younger readers at the turn of the century.
Hezekiah Butterworth-a noted 19th-century educator and author-expanded this edition to include additional content and updated perspectives, making it more comprehensive than earlier versions. Drawing from historical events and key figures, Butterworth presents U.S. history with a tone of moral instruction and patriotic narrative that was characteristic of youth education in that era.
This revised edition features:
*
Period-style embossed cloth binding with gilt titles
*
Numerous illustrations and historical plates throughout
*
Content spanning from the founding of the colonies to late 19th-century events
*
A unique window into how American history was taught to young minds over a century ago
The copy offered here shows typical shelf wear for its age but remains intact and complete, with firm binding and legible pages. A true collectible for enthusiasts of vintage children’s literature, historical education, or Americana.
