This is a social and political history of Pennsylvania written in 1962 by Dr. Paul A. W. Wallace historian and folklorist.From the book's cover: "In this authoritative and delightful book, a distinguished historian of the Keystone State tells the story of Pennsylvania from it's geological birth to the present. Here are the Susquehannock, Delaware and other indian Nations who found it such a pleasant place in which to live, and the Welsh, Irish, Scotch, German, Swedish and Finnish immigrants who, under the remarkable William Penn's Holy Experiment, flourished alongside their new neighbors.Here also are accounts of Pennsylvania's growth, its troubles and achievements: the French and Indian war; its role in the American Revolution and the formulation of a new government; mining and lumbering; canals and railroads; utopias and outlaws; iron and steel; art and architecture. And here are portraits of its most interesting citizens, from the great Penn himself to Benjamin Franklin, Andrew Carnegie, Milton Hershey, and many others."
