Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Great Kanawha Valley, Vol. 1: With Family History and Biographical Sketches, a Statement of Its Natural Resources, Industrial Growth and Commercial Advantages
Pioneer history does nott repeat itself. Our country - and especially our great western trans-allegheny country - has but recently passed through, and is hardly yet entirely emerged, in the far west, from a period of intensely active, exciting and eventful history, which can never be repeated.
The discovery, exploration, conquest, settlement and civiliza tion of a continent, once accomplished in this-age, is done for all time; there are no more continents to discover; no more worlds to conquer.
