| Summary | "History of the Ordinance of 1787 and the Old Northwest Territory" by Harlow Lindley et al. is a historical account written in the late 20th century. The text serves as a supplemental resource intended for educational purposes, detailing the significance of the Ordinance of 1787 and the subsequent development of the Northwest Territory, which would evolve into several modern U.S. states. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the formation of American governance in this pivotal period of history." "The beginning of the historical account introduces the Northwest Territory Celebration Commission, which seeks to highlight the importance of the Ordinance of 1787 and its role in shaping the governance and development of the Northwest Territory. The introductory sections focus on the context leading up to the ordinance, emphasizing the diverse backgrounds of the American colonists, their motivations for westward expansion, and the critical juncture of American history that followed the Revolutionary War. The text sets the stage for understanding how the ordinance established a framework for settlement, governance, and the prevention of slavery, underscoring its lasting significance in American history."
