This Country of Ours: A Classic United States History Book is a well-known children's history book of the United States by the best-selling British author, Henrietta Marshall. This classic book tells the story of America from the start of the settlements to 1912, ending with the presidency of Woodrow Wilson. In This Country of Ours: A Classic United States History Book, Marshall tells a riveting story of America's history that can't help but engage the attention and hearts of young readers. Because she wrote a hundred years ago, Marshall sometimes used words that we wouldn't choose today (such as savages). Despite such usages and a few historical inaccuracies, This Country of Ours: A Classic United States History Book is a great tool for helping children to understand how perspectives of history change and that points of view influence the retelling. Marshall wrote with an engaging, delightful, and interesting style, weaving in some of the Christian morals and biblical truths that influenced the founders of our nation. Filled with about 100 years of history which is broken down into regions, This Country of Ours: A Classic United States History Book remains an excellent read.

Napoleon Bonaparte was a French military and political leader who rose to prominence during the latter stages of the French Revolution and its associated wars in Europe. As Napoleon I, he was Emperor of the French from 1804 to 1814. He implemented a wide array of liberal reforms across Europe, including the abolition of feudalism and the spread of religious toleration. His legal code in France, the Napoleonic Code, influenced numerous civil law jurisdictions worldwide. Napoleon is remembered for his role in leading France against a series of coalitions in the Napoleonic Wars. He won the majority of his battles and seized control of most of continental Europe in a quest for personal power and to spread the ideals of the French Revolution. Widely regarded as one of the greatest commanders in history, his campaigns are studied at military academies worldwide.
