Edward Eggleston wrote Stories of Great Americans for Little Americans in 1895. Featuring brief biographical sketches on many of the most prominent early Americans, it serves as an accessible introduction to American history. This classic provides vignettes on leading figures like, among others, George Washington, Louisa May Alcott, Daniel Boone, Dorothea Lynde Dix, Benjamin Franklin, Charles Goodyear, Thomas Jefferson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Lewis and Clark, William Penn, Benjamin West, Kit Carson, and Washington Irving.
Among the interesting chapters, one finds titles like "Decatur and the Pirates", "Quicksilver Bob", "The First Steamboat", "Eliza Lucas' Plantation", "Putnam and the Wolf", "How Benny West Learned to be a Painter", "Daniel Boone and his Grapevine Swing", "George Washington and the Cherry Tree", "The Story of a Wise Woman", "Elisha Kane & the Arctic", and "The Star-Spangled Banner".
