Excerpt from Topical Outline of the Courses in Constitutional and Political History of the United States, Vol. 1: Given at Harvard College in the Academic Year 1886-87; 1783-1829 This Outline is prepared for the use of students in the courses in the History of the United States, at Harvard College, and at the Society for the Collegiate Instruction of Women. Students are expected to keep it before them during the lectures, as an analysis of the subject at that moment under discussion. Outside the lectureroom it is intended to aid the student in various ways: it is a summary of the course; it indicates precisely the reading necessary in connection with each topic; and references more detailed are often introduced, as a guide to an investigation of a particular topic deeper than is necessary in the work of the class, or for use after leaving college.
