Excerpt from Year Book of the Pennsylvania Society of New York The following pages have been prepared to present, in the most concise form possible, the essential facts of Pennsylvania history. Intended to serve as a summary of Pennsylvania affairs, available for the busy man searching for facts only, the narrative form has been abandoned, and the text arranged in paragraphs, which, in their turn, are gathered together into related chapters. In an elementary text book, such as this is designed to be, little display of original research can be expected; but the author believes the plan and scope of the book to be new, and trusts it sufficiently covers the subject to have genuine usefulness.
