Excerpt from The Progress and Prospects of America, Vol. 1 For some time past, the publisher of this work has entertained the idea of presenting to the citizens of the Union, a volume devoted to national interests. Maturing his plans, he laid them before a number of friends - gentlemen distinguished alike for their patriotism, social standing, and wide-spread reputation - and they were cordially endorsed as the promise, if carried out, of supplying a book really needed at this present crisis. The gentlemen selected to write the various chapters, were chosen with reference to their ability to treat upon the subjects committed to their especial charge, and the publisher indulges the belief that their labor, careful research and investigation, joined with their conscientious desire to accomplish a work of so momentous interest, will be appreciated by every patriotic and reflective mind. The subjects treated of concern not only the statesman and politician, but every American citizen, however humble or exalted - whether native or naturalized.
