Produktbeschreibung

Firsthand History gathers diaries, letters, biographies, and narratives by eyewitnesses and participants of key events in United States history. Selections are lightly introduced by the editors to provide background and context.

Jamestown to Washington's Farewell 1607-1801, the first volume in the series, includes an excerpt of the transcript of the Salem Witch Trial testimony taken on March 1, 1692, Paul Revere's personal account of his famous ride, and Benjamin Franklin's instrumental speech urging delegates to sign the Constitution. This thought-provoking, slender compendium presents the raw stuff of the past-essential reading for enthusiasts and students of history.
