Book Description
Excerpt from History of Hancock County, Ohio: Geographical and Statistical The contents of this volume is not in any of its parts original with the author, or more properly, the compiler, except as to arrangement, which fact alone is not above reproach. Every source available was searched to its very depths, and after these means were exhausted, the knowing brain and willing hand of friends were brought into action, and the fruits of their efforts embodied in this work. The sectional map near the close of the first chapter is the artistic work of John W. S. Riegle, ex - County surveyor, and present city civil engineer, and to him I am greatly indebted for his kindness and liberality in furnishing this one lesson in local history, for such it is, if the reader will carefully study the same. Whoever expects to find this volume entirely free from defects, has but little acquaintance with the difficulties ever attendant upon procuring such material. Although we have taken the best available means to insure accuracy, yet from a variety of causes, unnecessary here to specify, some errors may have occurred. If anything materially wrong is discovered, it is unintentional on the part of the writer, and is probably due to lack of time in ascertaining the facts, and also due to the hurried manner in which the writer was, through necessity, compelled to complete his work. T 0 all who have aided me, some of whom have spent much time and research, we feel under lasting obligations, and are enabled by their assistance to present to the researching public of our somewhat limited domain a far better work than could otherwise have been produced.

Book Description
A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.
