| Summary | "A Brief History of the United States" by Joel Dorman Steele is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work is designed as a concise educational resource aimed at American youth, covering key events from early discoveries to significant wars and developments in the country's history. It seeks to engage readers with essential historical facts while making the subject accessible and enjoyable to school students. The opening of the book lays the foundation for its educational approach, emphasizing the need for engaging and manageable historical texts due to the common deficiencies in historical knowledge among students. It articulates the author's intention to present American history by highlighting crucial events and epochs, such as the early discoveries, colonial development, and the revolutionary war, using maps and topical questions to enhance learning. The text discusses prehistoric North America, touching on the Mound Builders and the various Native American tribes, while setting the stage for European exploration and colonization, ultimately leading to the establishment of the United States.
