"In Appendix C [1945 report] are reprints of letters of Thomas Chandler Haliburton , which "throw light on his historical research." It is represented that these letters show that he "was rabidly becoming impatient of historical research and beginning to feel his way toward that more congenial vehicle of expression which ultimately produced The Clockmaker .")

As an undergraduate at Harvard, he had the advantage of study with the historian Jared Sparks, who gave Parkman his first reading list on the "Old French War." Through letters of introduction to other scholars, Sparks eased the young man's path. While still a sophomore (he graduated in 1844), Parkman planned a history of the "Old French War" which would end with England's conquest of Canada. An older contemporary historian, George Bancroft, who had gone over some of the ground later traversed by Parkman, provided a framework for his more gifted successor.

In 1795, the Society received an uncolored 1743 version of the engraving (please see the online display ) that was mounted on a wooden panel. By 1880, the board had begun to warp. In order to protect the engraving against damage, a member of the Society removed it and underneath discovered the handsome, hand-colored, and previously unknown first state of the image, painted by William Burgis in the mid 1720s and then engraved, probably in England, by John Harris. An advertisement for the engravingnow known familiarly as the Burgis Viewin the Boston News Letter of 26 July 1726 dates the work.

The knowledge of wilderness life and American Indian culture he gained on these trips served as a basis for much of his later work. Parkman wrote both histories and historical novels. Though he suffered from poor eyesight and other health problems in later years, he kept working. Parkman produced articles and a horticultural treatise, and taught for a year at Harvard. Though notable for his wide-ranging interests, Parkman gained a lasting reputation as one of America's foremost historians. Vassall Morton.
