Excerpt from Narrative and Critical History of America, Vol. 4 These regular continents are all in the form Of triangles, with their apices pointing towards the southern pole. Near either long shore lie the principal mountain sys tems that give definition to the coast line. The middle portion of each continent is generally a region of plain, somewhat diversified by lesser mountain systems. Along either shore is a narrow fringe of plain land to the east and west Of the main moun tain chains. Near the northern part of the continent, and aiding to define the base Of the triangle, there is another system of mountains having a general east and west course. With the exception of North America, none Of these regular continents have seas inclosed within their areas, - such bodies Of water as form so striking a feature in the Asiatic continent, which is indeed a land Of mediterranean seas.

Narrative and Critical History of America, Vol. 7 (Classic Reprint), Excerpt from Narrative and Critical History of America, Vol. 7 It is the object of this chapter to describe the attempts made by the United States, during the earlier part of the Revolutionary War, to obtain recognition and aid from foreign countries, and to raise the money necessary for carrying on the struggle. The diplomatic situation in Europe will also be considered in so far as it affected the war. The final negotiations by which the conditions of peace were arranged, will be found in the succeeding chapter. The second half of the eighteenth century was a time of intellectual and moral revolution. The ideas of men on their relations to each other were undergoing a fundamental change. The European nations, on the awakening of their minds in the fifteenth century, had at first turned principally to the consideration of theological and religious subjects. For two hundred years these had occupied them, almost to the exclusion of other ideas. But after the middle of the seventeenth century religious quarrels had lost some of their interest. The various parties of the Church had divided Christendom among themselves. The eyes of Europe were no longer directed to the skies, but turned on the world about. The corruption of the Church was forgotten in the corruption of the State. Men had learned to inquire curiously into their relation to God; they were no longer afraid to consider their relations to each other. But while active-minded and fearless men were questioning all things on earth, the governments of Continental Europe were still conducted according to the old ideas, with the general acquiescence of the governed.
