Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America of the Americans Thanks to such biographies as From Log Cabin to White House, the uninformed imagination pictures the election Of the President in a manner woefully divergent from fact. It is true that the constitutional qualifications for that high Office are exceed ingly meagre; all are eligible who have attained the age Of thirty-five and are natural-born citizens there was profound truth as well as satire in Theodore Parker's assertion that any one is in danger Of becoming President but the extra-constitutional qualifications are now so numerous that a man's progress from a log cabin to the White House is beset with a thousand Obstacles. In the strict meaning of the phrase, there is no popular vote for the President of the United States. Out Of a total popu lation Of about a hundred millions only some fifteen millions enjoy merely an indirect participation in the choice of the Chief Executive, and many Of the occupants Of the presidential Chair have been seated there by a minority of all the votes cast. These minority Presidents have included such rulers as Lincoln, Garfield, and Cleveland. The presidential electors who were responsible for Lincoln's success in 1860 represented a popular vote of as compared with the votes cast in favour of the other three candidates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Americans To outline American life for readers beyond the sea is one thing; to appear before an American audience and to tell them solemnly that there is a Republican and a Democratic party, and that there are troubles between capital and labour, is quite another thing. To inform my German countrymen about America may be to fill a long-felt want; but, as a German, to inform the Ameri cans on matters which they knew before they were born seems, indeed, worse than superﬂuous. When I was urged, on so many sides, to bring my Americans before the Americans, it was, therefore, clear to me from the outset that I ought not to do it myself under any circumstances. If I had translated the book myself, it would have become simply an Eng lish book, written in English by the author and yet its only pos sible right to existence must lie in its reﬂected character, in its hav ing been written for others, in its coming back to the New World from the Old. My friend, Dr. Holt, who has been for years my assistant in the Harvard Psychological Laboratory, has assisted, therefore, in this social psychological experiment, and translated the book from the German edition.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the American People Since the American Revolution, the terms America and American have acquired a specific significance. They apply to the United States of America and its people; but the use of the words in this sense has been more com mon in trade and travel than in literature. There are half a dozen United States in the western world: two in North and four in South America. The words are rarely heard in association with Mexico or Brazil, yet they form a part Of the Official name Of these republics. Our own history, as a nation, shows a distinct line of cleavage in the use of the two words United States. Is our Union to be understood as consisting of the united States, or of the United States? We all agree on the use Of the words of America. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Then the red escalade; then the fight hand to hand; Such an unequal fight as never had name Since the Persian hordes butchered that doomed Spar tan band. All dam - all day and all night; and the morning? So slow, Through the battle smoke mantling the Alamo. Now silence! Such silence! Two thousand lay dead In a crescent outside! And within? Not a breath Save the gasp of a woman, with gory gashed head, All alone, all alone there, waiting for death; And she but a nurse.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from America for Coming Citizens This book is the outgrowth of the author's belief that the Coming Citizen in our country eagerly seeks to understand the great American institu tions; that he shows a laudable curiosity on the many topics which older Americans frequently take for granted, and that it is unfair to place the burden for failure to understand America entirely on the immigrant. Within the limits of a single volume some of the most pressing questions confronting the coming citizen are answered What is this America of which you speak? How came it to be? How are you different from us who are not yet citizens? What do I owe to your past? What must I do to participate in the present and to make glorious your future? What ought I to know as an American? What must I do to take my place as an American? The author has not hesitated to quote freely the words of such Amer icans as Franklin K. Lane, Henry van Dyke, Elihu Root, Louis D. Brandeis, Theodore Roosevelt, and Woodrow Wilson. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Promise of American Life Of an essential constituent In our national ideal. The past should mean less to a European than it does to an American, and the future should mean more. To be sure, American life cannot with impunity be wrenched vio lently from its moorings any more than the life of a European country can; but our American past, compared to that of any European country, has a character all its own. Its peculiarity consists, not merely in its brevity, but in the fact that from the beginning it has been informed by an idea. From the beginning Americans have been anticipating and projecting a better future. From the beginning the Land of Democracy has been figured as the Land of Promise. Thus the American' s loyalty to the national tradition rather affirms than denies the imaginative projection of a better future. An America which was not the Land of Promise, which was not informed by a prophetic outlook and a more or less constructive ideal, would not be the America be queathed to us by our forefathers. In cherishing the Promise of a better national future the Americfiis' fulfilling rathner than imperiling the substafrée of the national tradition.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among the Americans, And, a Stranger in America Three centuries ago the Reformation broke out, when it was pre dicted that everybody would come to have ideas of his own. A few new creeds ﬂew into the air and alighted upon ledges in the old rocks of Opinion, where they have nestled in inadventurous content, and the groves of thought have seldom since been enlivened by new brightness of plumage or cheered by varieties of song. The republican equality and the republican freedom of America, with their infinite incentives and fertility of aspirations, were to me as a land of new color and new notes, where the minds of the people, like keyless watches, wind them selves up and always keep going. I should have been glad to live there for years, so as to write about it; as it is, I content myself with relating a few of the things which I noticed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Great Americans: For Little Americans The primary aim of this book is to furnish the little learner reading matter that will excite his attention and give him pleasure, and thus make lighter the difficult task of learning to read. The ruggedness of this task has often been increased by the use of disconnected sentences, or lessons as dry and uninteresting as finger exercises on the piano. It is a sign of promise that the demand for reading matter of interest to the child has come from teachers. I have endeavored to meet this requirement in the following stories. As far as possible the words chosen have been such as are not difficult to the little reader, either from their length or their unfamiliarity. The sentences and paragraphs are short. Learning to read is like climbing a steep hill, and it is a great relief to the panting child to find frequent breathing places. It is one of the purposes of these stories to make the mind of the pupil familiar with some of the leading figures in the history of our country by means of personal anecdote. Some of the stories are those that every American child ought to know, because they have become a kind of national folklore. Such, for example, are "Putnam and the Wolf" and the story of "Franklin's Whistle." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
