Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive report on the 1879 gathering of old settlers who founded the American state of Kansas 25 years prior. This reunion was a celebration of the state's settlement and admission to the union as a free state. The author presents an overview of the early events that led to the territory's organization in 1854 and the subsequent conflicts that emerged due to the issue of slavery. These conflicts culminated in the Civil War, and the report gives special attention to the significant role the people of Kansas played in this conflict. The book is also a valuable record of the state's progress in the 25 years since its founding, highlighting its rapid growth in population, agriculture, industry, and infrastructure. Moreover, the report captures the spirit of unity and reconciliation that prevailed among the former settlers, despite their differing views during the era of conflict. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Kansas, the settlement of the American West, and the struggle for freedom and equality in the United States.
