Then he turned his attention to that great section of the United States that had been his home for more than thirty years, and gave us " A Short History of the Mississippi Val- ley " (Boston, 1901) ; " A History of the Louis- iana Purchase ' ' (New York, 1902) ; and, an " In- troduction " and " Index" for a new edition of " The Expedition of Lewis and Clarke ", pub- lished in Chicago, in 1902. "A History of the Mississippi Valley" is a condensed, well-proportioned story of the great Valley. Aft...er sketching its vastness and fitness for a great history. Professor Hosmer tells of the coming into it of the Spaniards, the French, and the English ; and describes the conflicts and changes of control until the Americans were masters of the Valley. The narrative includes brilliant individual actors, Coronado, LaSalle, Boone, George Rogers Clarke, Jackson, Farra- gut and Grant; and it embraces the immense industrial and commercial activities which give the Mississippi Valley to-day an interest for the world as keen as it had in its romantic days of exploration and conquest.
