A Tid Bit of Information

A Tid Bit of Information
Current mood: accomplished
Category: Life


Check out "A Familiar Exposition to the Constitution of the United States" by Justice Joseph Story.

He goes into landownership a bit in the beginning in terms of 2 owners:

Native Americans
British Settlers (the crown)

American settlers didn't lay claim to the land until the revolutionary period and they sought to gain ownership from the King, not the Indians whose immune systems were their biggest enemy.
