This book begins with a social and economic picture of our ancestors in Europe and ends with a discussion of the recovery measures of Roosevelt in 1933. The authors demonstrate the influence of social and political forces on the growth of democracy, and they show the development of high social and individual purposes that played a part in the growth of the colony and the state.

Originally published in 1933.
