Excerpt from Lights and Shadows of American History The continent of America stretches from the polar regions of the north, almost to the frozen zone of the southern hemisphere. Its whole length is nearly nine thousand miles, and, bent upon the surface of the globe, embraces more than one third of its entire circumference. It occupies about one third of the land upon the earth. Its inhabitants may be estimated at forty-five millions, or one twentieth part of the entire population of the globe. In comparison with the eastern continent, America is marked with a scale of grandeur in several of its physical features. The great chain of mountains which extends through both portions of the continent, from Cape Horn to the borders of the Arctic ocean, is the longest in the world. Lake Superior has a surface exceeding that of all the fresh water lakes of Europe, Asia, and Africa. The river Amazon bears to the ocean as great a volume of water as the united streams of Europe.
