A Valuable Work. A History of the United States
A concise history aims to cover discovery to the present, noting that common outlines fail adult readers. James D McCabe, author of prior manuals, presents a broader history intended for mature audiences beyond school primers.
Centennial History book praised as standard work for U S
A Raleigh newspaper extols The Centennial History of the United States by James D. McCabe as a vivid impartial narrative from discovery to the Civil War with 925 pages 442 engravings. It notes the National Publishing Co edition, subscription sale, and a lithographic engraving for subscribers. It critiques political bias in a related Tax Collector dispute.
