Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pioneer History of Jefferson County, Pennsylvania: And My First Recollections of Brookville, Pennsylvania, 1840-1843, When My Feet Were Bare and My Cheeks Were Brown To write a pioneer history of a single county years and years after all the fathers and mothers have gone to "that country from whose bourn no traveller returns" is a task to appall the most courageous. To say it mildly, it is a task requiring a vast amount of labor and research, untiring perseverance, great patience, and discrimination. In undertaking this task I realized its magnitude, and all through the work I have determined that, if labor, patience, and perseverance would overcome error and false traditions and establish the truth, the object of this book would be fully attained. This book is not written for gain, nor to laud or puff either the dead or the living. It is designed to be a plain, truthful narrative of the pioneer men and events of Jefferson County. I have compiled, wherever I could, from the writings of others. I am indebted to the following historical works, - viz., "Jefferson County Atlas," "Jefferson County History," Day's "Historical Recollections," Egle's "History of Pennsylvania," W. C. Elliott's "History of Reynoldsville," and the county histories of Indiana, Armstrong, Elk, Centre, Lycoming, Venango, Crawford, and Northumberland; also to many individuals. I am greatly indebted to the late Mr. G. B. Goodlander, of Clearfield, for a complete file of the Brookville Republican for the year 1837, to Clarence M. Barrett for a file of the Republican for 1834, and also to the Ladies Home Journal of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In every instance, as far as possible, credit has been given to the writings of those who have preceded me. But, dear reader, "Whoever thinks a faultless work to see, Thinks what ne'er was, nor is, nor e'er shall be. In every work regard the writer's end, Since none can compass more than they intend, And if the means be just, the conduct true, Applause, in spite of trivial faults, is due."

J. Mcknight and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-27 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, was erected on March 26, 1804 from land in Lycoming County. At one time, Jefferson County encompassed some 1,203 square miles and included the present-day counties of Forest and Elk. This rugged wilderness, that was home to the Six Nations Iroquois, was explored and settled by an adventurous group of missionaries, Scotch-Irish and German pioneers, lured west by the possibility inherent in so much virgin territory. W. J. McKnight tells the story of these pioneers and of the legacy which grew from their rough-hewn frontier communities. Subjects of interest include: social habits of the pioneers; settlements and customs of the Six Nations; pioneer surveys and surveyors; the erection of the county; pioneer missionary work; white and African slavery; the origin of the "Scotch-Irish;" militia organization; townships and boroughs of the county; pioneer newspapers; early physicians and lawyers; anecdotes and incidents of the region and much more. Biographical chapters are devoted to Joseph Barnett, the patriarch of Jefferson County, and Cornplanter, chief of the Seneca and representative of the Six Nations in many of their first dealings with Europeans in western Pennsylvania. Additionally, McKnight has included a section of memoirs, "My First Recollections of Brookville," in which he describes his childhood in Jefferson County during the 1830s. A new index has been compiled for this edition, double the length of the original and containing all of the entries from the 1898 edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize Board citation to Ida B. Wells, as an early pioneer of investigative journalism and civil rights icon From a thinker who Maya Angelou has praised for shining “a brilliant light on the lives of women left in the shadow of history,” comes the definitive biography of Ida B. Wells—crusading journalist and pioneer in the fight for women’s suffrage and against segregation and lynchings Ida B. Wells was born into slavery and raised in the Victorian age yet emerged—through her fierce political battles and progressive thinking—as the first “modern” black women in the nation’s history. Wells began her activist career when she tried to segregate a first-class railway car in Memphis. After being thrown bodily off the car, she wrote about the incident for black Baptist newspapers, thus beginning her career as a journalist. But her most abiding fight would be the one against lynching, a crime in which she saw all the themes she held most dear coalesce: sexuality, race, and the law.
