Inducements to the Colored People of the United States to Emigrate to British Guiana

Richard Hildreth

Richard Hildreth, was an American journalist, writer and historian. He is best known for writing his six-volume History of the United States of America covering 1497–1821 and published 1840-1853. Historians consider it a highly accurate political history of the early Republic, but with a strong bias in favor of the Federalist Party and the abolition of slavery. At the time of his death in 1865, he still had many unfinished works.
