Excerpt from The History of North America, Vol. 5: The Colonization of New England Professor Bartlett B. James, to whom the work of pre paring the volume on New England was intrusted, has pro duced a work that is at the same time scholarly and readable. Dr. James has written in a manner that is wholly sym pathetic. He has thoroughly appreciated the share of New England in the upbuilding of the nation. He has been wholly conscious of the rich contribution she has made to political as well as to material progress. He is deeply con vinced that in New England were laid the foundations of many of the more stable of our institutions. But he has wisely eschewed the narrowness of view with which New England has been regarded by those who have loved her most. He has not regarded her as something distinct from the United States, as a peculiar country with a peculiar people, but rather has he considered her as an integral por tion of the country for which she has done so much. He has judged the period of her colonization as a phase of the nation's beginning rather than as that of the creation Of a distinct colony. In no other way can be rightly judged either the New England people or their institutions, and in this way alone can be appreciated their mighty influence upon the country of which they have been and are so important a part.
