The United States of America: Volume II. From the Civil War
Authors

Abstract
"This is the second in a two-volume set designed by Dr. Muzzey to supply the need for a suitable college text in United States history… It is comparatively easy for a writer having unlimited space to set down all the facts of an episode in chronological order. That requires little skill. But to condense a volume into a chapter, or a chapter into a paragraph and leave out nothing of importance requires a different kind of ability and of higher order... Here Dr. Muzzey has been singularly successful."
