oscar wilde "the canterville ghost"

recently i found this book in the school library. and i liked it, because oscar wilde is a true master and he has a very big vocabulary, therefore in the book he used to many metaphors and similes. this story about ghost and the little girl is a very beautiful fairy tail. besides i love stories about old england and the customs of that time. i chose english translation, because the book have many idioms and it's difficult to translate them into russian. i'm not sure, but i think oscar wilde is the quite popular author and some of his works are in the school program, so the library must have his books.

1. Starting in the late 16th century, the Spanish, the British, the French, Swedes and the Dutch began to colonize eastern North America.

2. European immigrants came to make new homes in the Americas. They came in search of a better life. In their native countries, they often had little money and could not worship God in the way they wished. Not all immigrants came to America because they wanted to. Beginning in 1619, millions of Africans were brought to the Americas against their will and were forced into slavery.

3. Before the American revolution, agriculture was the primary livelihood for 90% of the population, and most towns were shipping points for the export of agricultural products.  

4. Ten years after the landing of the "Mayflower" Pilgrims more than twenty thousand people lived in the colony and the majority were from England.

5. It was here in New England that the literature of the New American nation appeared.

6. The first American university, Harvard College, was founded in 1636 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

7. The first books of the colony were about religion, the story of the colony and the true nature of the puritanism of those days.

8. The development of American literature was influenced by French and German culture which was brought to America by new immigrants from Europe.
