Summary: "A School History of the United States" by John Bach McMaster is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book serves as a comprehensive introduction to American history, starting with the discovery of America and tracing the development of the United States from its colonial beginnings through the establishment of its government. McMaster approaches the subject as one would recount the life of a great individual, framing the colonial period as the formative years that set the stage for the nation’s future. The opening of the book presents a preface wherein McMaster explains his intent to cover early American history through the lens of exploration and colonization, starting with Columbus's voyages. He outlines key themes such as the impacts of European nations like Spain, England, France, and the Netherlands on the territory that would become the United States, highlighting events that shaped its political landscape. The text emphasizes significant early explorations and geopolitical relationships, setting an informative foundation for understanding how the United States evolved into an independent nation. McMaster's emphasis on the connections between early discovery and later conflicts suggests a deeper analysis of how these historical moments influenced America's path to nationhood.
