The Lost Tribes of Israel, or the First of the Red Men (Classic Reprint)

Christopher Colum bus first set foot on America ssoil, he found it already tenanted by a people which, though differing from his own race in customs and color, were as perfect specimens of humanity as himself and followers. Only intent upon new discoveries, and animated but by the desire of subjugating whatever new countries he might find to the crown of Spain, the great explorer regarded this new and strange people merely in so far as they might be used in furthering his own plans, troubling himself little about their rights or origin. The extreme darkness in which the earlier history of our Eed neighbors is involved, renders it next to impossible to penetrate the veil which enshrouds their origin; while it is almost needless to say that all that has been said or written about this certainly interesting subject is based only on conjecture and fiction.
