Excerpt from The History and Government of Nebraska The annals of Nebraska are so little known and the place of a citizen is so faintly comprehended, that no apology is necessary for Offering this volume to the teachers and scholars of the State. A man cannot know his duty to his neighbor or to his government unless he understands how he is related to the other members of society. This work is offered in the hope that it may be easier for teachers to create an interest in this line of study, and also that the work may be useful in private study.
