Summary "History of Atchison County, Kansas" by Sheffield Ingalls is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work chronicling the past events crucial to the social, political, and economic development of Atchison County aims to preserve a narrative of the area and its people, emphasizing the contributions of various local figures and institutions over a span of sixty years. The opening of the book presents a preface in which the author outlines the dedication to compiling a straightforward history of Atchison County without extensive interpretation of events. Ingalls expresses gratitude to several contributors who assisted him in gathering historical data, including noted local historians and educators. He also mentions the influence of his mother, who lived through the early days of Atchison's settlement, emphasizing the personal connection he feels to the area. This establishes a foundation for the forthcoming detailed chapters on geology, prehistoric times, Indian history, early explorations, and the critical development of the region, creating a framework that respects both the origins and evolution of the community.
