Sinossi
Excerpt from The Opening, the Use, and the Future of Our Domain on This Continent: An Address Delivered Before the New York Historical Society on Its Eighty-Second Anniversary, Tuesday, November 16, 1886
During his honorable and useful career as historian and divine, Dr. Ellis has done great service to American history by his varied and ih valuable contributions on subjects extending from the early colonists to our own times. To-night, after his delightful and graphic reminiscences ofscenes in the history of this Society, and connected with eminent states men, which some of us well remember, Dr. Ellis has discussed the open ing and uses of our national domain, and has closed his review of four hundred years of its past history by glancing at its future. This reminds us that the future of our national domain loomed up in the far distance before the searching and jealous gaze of European statesmen more than a century ago.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the complex development of the United States as a nation through the exploitation of its natural resources. Spanning four centuries, this text traces how, between the 15th and 19th centuries, the European discovery of, and conquest over, the 'New World' set in motion the process by which the United States came to own and utilize the lands and resources of its vast territory. The author argues that although the full extent of these resources was initially unknown, and their acquisition often brutal and destructive, these lands became the material foundation upon which the nation was built. Ultimately, the book prompts us to reflect on the future of the US as it grapples with the consequences of its past exploitation of its natural environment.
