THE BEGINNER'S AMERICAN HISTORY

Table of Contents

The paragraph headings, following the paragraph numbers, will be found useful for topical reference, and, if desired, as questions; by simply omitting these headings, the book may be used as a reader.

Teachers who wish a regular set of questions on each section will find them at the end of the section. Difficult words are defined or pronounced at the end of the numbered paragraph where they first occur; reference to them will be found in the index.

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS

(1436–1506).[1]

COLUMBUS AS A BOY. (From the statue in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.)
