Chronicles of America

50 Volumes Published by Yale University Press

This series of fifty volumes is designed to tell the story of the United States, as it has never before been told before. The conception or plan of The Chronicles Of America is to present the entire history of our country in living form, through a continuity of short narratives, each having a unity of its own, but all articulated and so related that the reader will be given a real vision of this country from the beginning to the present day.

This series was originally published by Yale University Press, under the supervision and control of the Council's Committee of Publications of Yale University, edited by Allen Johnson, Professor of American History in Yale University; prepared for press by G. R. Lomer; with historical pictures collected and annotated by C. W. Jefferys, and a series of new historical maps designed by W. L. G. Joerf, of the American Geographical Society, and executed by Julius Bien.  Reprinted in 2007 by E. J. Publishing
