America forms the longest and straightest bone in the earth's skeleton.

In America the most widespread type of forest is the evergreen coniferous woodland of the north.

The coast of British Columbia was one of the three chief centers of aboriginal America.

In fact, the history of North America has been perhaps more profoundly influenced by man's inheritance from his past homes than by the physical features of his present home.

Again and again, to be sure, on the way to America, and under many other circumstances, man has passed through the most adverse climates and has survived, but he has flourished and waxed strong only in certain zones.

It's a very skeleton indictment, if you will. There's not really a lot of meat on the bone of this indictment.
