whose friendship has stood the test of time and whose exact knowledge, those standing high among the scholars of American history have recognized, this book is dedicated.
INTRODUCTORY
The following pages, from which an excerpt was published in 1913, under the title--The Railroad The Conqueror--constitute an attempt to put within short compass the main causes of the shifting sectionalism of the people of the United States.
The facts and assertions upon which this sketch is based have, with others not included, been gathered and pondered for at least sixteen years, during which period, much at times interwoven, has, from time to time been cut, for fear that consideration of such might lead the thoughts of the possible reader away from the main theme.
As to the workmanship few can see more clearly than the author, how much better that could have been, had he who undertook it been accommodated with more leisure and equipped with scholarship and means. Yet it is doubtful if any one could have approached the task and pursued it through the years which have intervened between its inception and completion with a firmer determination to present the truth and nothing but the truth, as the writer saw and still sees it.
