Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes of Progress in America IN the history of every nation there is much more going on than wars and revolutions. These are brief in duration and rapid in effect, but in the long inter vals between the years of strife the work of peace goes steadily forward, producing its changes more deliberately but with equal utility. The pioneer and the warrior are not the only figures that stand promi nent in national archives, not the only individuals that rise to the surface of things. There are many persons who attain heroic proportions not as results of bold adventure or military skill and daring, but through aid to the progress of mankind in less showy but equally important ways. The careers of these workers for good usually present little of the striking or dramatic. Their histories are not of the coruscating order and their lineaments and proportions not those usually given to the heroic figure. Yet they are often heroes in the noblest sense, and do more for the advancement of mankind than he who draws the sword in his country's defence or plunges into the untrodden wilderness in efforts to extend the borders of his nation's dominion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes of Progress: Stories of Sucessful Americans This book is planned to give as general a view of recent American achievement as possible without becoming of unwieldy size. Invention, discovery and exploration, art, music, philanthropy, kindness to animals, industrial success, aviation, pure and applied science, are all represented. To select the names of the men and women of achievement has not been easy. Some thirty have been carefully chosen with the aim of introducing those whose work reached its consummation within the last half-century; but in a few instances men have been included whose inventions have been greatly developed in recent years, even though by other hands. In making the selection a number of children's librarians have been consulted, with the wish to include as many as possible of the people about whom children come to them for information. There is seldom difficulty in finding biographies of authors, soldiers, or statesmen. For this reason such names have been omitted from this book. The qualities which led these men and women to success have been brought well to the front; and while financial rewards have often been mentioned, success is reckoned in value to the world, rather than in money acquired by the individual.

This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As presidential candidates sling dirt at each other, America desperately needs a few real heroes. Tragically, liberal historians and educators have virtually erased traditional American heroes from history. According to the Left, the Founding Fathers were not noble architects of America, but selfish demagogues. And self–made entrepreneurs like Rockefeller were robber–barons and corporate polluters. Instead of honoring great men from America’s past, kids today now idolize rock stars, pro athletes and Hollywood celebrities. In his new book, The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Real American Heroes, author Brion McClanahan rescues the legendary deeds of the greatest Americans and shows why we ought to venerate heroes like Captain John Smith, adventurer Daniel Boone, General Robert E. Lee and many more. The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Real American Heroes not only resuscitates America’s forgotten heroes, but sheds light on the Left’s most cherished figures, including Franklin Delano Roosevelt and the Kennedys. With biting wit and devastating detail, McClanahan strikes back against the multicultural narrative peddled by liberal historians who make heroes out of pop culture icons and corrupt politicians. In America’s hour of peril, McClanahan’s book is a timely and entertaining call to remember the heritage of this great nation and the heroes who built it.

LUTHER BURBANK PLANT-BREEDER 1849- 1875, perfected the "Burbank Potato" Luther Burbank when a young man spent some little time in his uncle's machine shop in Worcester, Massachusetts. He did not like it so well as outdoor life, but he did his best; and his "best" was to invent a machine that enabled him, doing piecework, to make from ten to sixteen dollars a day instead of the half-dollar that he had been receiving. Now came the struggle. He loved flowers and plants, and he felt sure that the life-work of his choice would be among them. His friends, however, were equally sure that he could become a rich inventor. Which should it be? He decided in favor of plants. He left the factory and set to work on a bit of ground belonging to his family, raising vegetables for market; but he did much more than to plant and cultivate and sell, for he studied the plants and thought about them and about what he believed they could be led to do. Among his vegetables he raised some Early Rose potatoes. This had been an excellent potato, but it seemed to have run out. Indeed, potatoes in general were becoming so poor that some people thought there would be a potato famine before many years had passed. The Early Rose had never been known to bear seed-balls, but one day the gardener found on a plant a single ball. Now, if the eye of a potato is planted, the same variety will be raised; but if the seed is planted, the result is quite different. There was a chance that he might get a much better potato than the Early Rose. He did; he got the famous "Burbank potato." A great deal of money was made out of it, but not by Burbank himself, for he, like Agassiz, "had not time to make money." He gave his product freely to the world. The humble potato was a princely...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes and Statesmen of America: Being a Popular Book of American Biography, Embracing the Lives of the Representative Great Men of the Nation But this wonderful story of progress is not all that should engage our attention at this period of national rejoicing. It is fitting that we should remember the great men of our history, to whose labors we owe all that we now enjoy, and that we should know the story of their lives and the means by which they accomplished the task allotted to them. America has no prouder record than that of the lives of her great men - none from which her children may draw greater in spiration, or learn more useful lessons. Not one of them owed his success to fortune or social position, but all were eminently self-made men 3 and their lives are full of hope and encouragement to those who would emulate their glorious examples. The writer of these pages has thought the present a proper time to offer to his countrymen this collection of brief biographies of the great men whose deeds illustrate the First Century of American Independence. There never was a time when such a work was more needed; there never was a time when our people needed, as they do now, to be taught that enduring success in public life can be attained only by honesty, disinterested patriotism, and fitness for the task assumed, and that he only is the truest lover and best servant of his country who is willing to sink all considerations of self in his desire to promote the welfare of his fellow - citizens. Such was the spirit that animated the men whose lives are recorded in these pages. They were often mistaken as to the means to be employed, or the course to be pursued, but never as to the end to be attained. They were will ing to Spend life and fortune in the effort to benefit their country, and faithfully and patiently sought to qualify themselves for the great work to which they were called. They have their reward in the grateful love and honor with which their country cherishes their mem ory, and their lives are lessons which each American should take deeply to heart.

Book excerpt: THE TRUTH WILL ENDURE. IT MUST. But our history is in danger of being rewritten by the progressive left and the “woke” mob. In PROFILES IN FREEDOM: HEROES WHO SHAPED AMERICA , Carl Higbie shines a light on the real heros of American history. Ronald Reagan warned in his 1989 farewell address: “If we forget what we did, we won’t know who we are. I’m warning of an eradication of the American memory that could result, ultimately, in an erosion of the American spirit.” The “woke” mob tries to silence voices of reason. They try to remeasure by their liberal, progressive standards our historical heroes who made an impact on our country. They must redefine everything to fit their narrative. They don’t teach our actual history because they hope that by ignoring it, we will forget, for when it’s forgotten, it is effectively erased. But people should not be erased, nor should our history. We should learn from it and grow, always climbing higher than the previous generation. Carl Higbie, a former Navy SEAL and national news anchor of Carl Higbie Frontline on Newsmax TV, believes in REAL America and the need to remember the heroes who made this country great. In Profiles in Freedom, he reintroduces some of the Americans who made this great country what it is today. People such as: William Penn, Ben Franklin, and George Washington William Clark, Samuel Colt, and Ulysses S. Grant Frederick Douglass, Susan B. Anthony, and George Washington Carver And more To simply cancel others, especially our nation’s history and the people who made this nation great, is cowardice. It is small-minded thinking. And it is futile. After all, to forget history is to repeat it. The problem is that it takes an awfully long time to get back to a point of strength. Those who helped build this country lived and died for their ideals so that we could have a better life. The wise will not only build onto that, but they will teach their children to do the same. “As you journey through the histories of these American heroes, my sincere hope is that you are encouraged, revitalized, and made more confident. Every history you read is really your own history, no matter when you came to this great country. We are in this together.” —from the foreword by U.S. Sen. Markwayne Mullin

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Heroes: Theodore Roosevelt Theodore Roosevelt, a name synonymous with resilience, leadership, and unwavering commitment to the betterment of his nation and the world, stands as one of America's most iconic and enduring heroes. In this captivating biography, we delve deep into the life and legacy of a man whose journey from a sickly child to the highest office in the land exemplifies the indomitable spirit of the American character. At the heart of this exploration is Roosevelt's remarkable personal journey. Stricken with illness in his early years, he defied the odds, embracing physical fitness and the strenuous life as core principles. His adventures in the untamed Badlands of North Dakota not only reinvigorated his health but also ignited a passion for the outdoors and the conservation of America's natural treasures. As we journey through the pages of this biography, we encounter a Roosevelt who embodied the ethos of progressivism. His presidency was marked by sweeping reforms that transformed the nation's approach to trust-busting, labor rights, and consumer protection. His dedication to social and economic justice laid the foundation for the modern regulatory state. Roosevelt's contributions to environmental conservation remain a defining aspect of his legacy. His vision led to the preservation of public lands, the establishment of national parks and monuments, and the regulation of industry to safeguard the environment. Today, the National Park System stands as a testament to his enduring commitment to preserving America's natural beauty. In the realm of foreign policy, Roosevelt's "speak softly and carry a big stick" approach to diplomacy continues to shape America's role on the global stage. His mediation of the Russo-Japanese War and his Nobel Peace Prize underscore his impact as a statesman and diplomat. But perhaps it is Roosevelt's personal qualities of courage, determination, and an unwavering commitment to his principles that resonate most profoundly. His famous "Man in the Arena" speech serves as a timeless inspiration, motivating individuals to confront challenges head-on and strive for greatness. Through meticulously researched narratives and a deep exploration of Roosevelt's life, this biography offers a comprehensive understanding of the man who left an indelible mark on America and the world. His legacy serves as a reminder that individuals can shape history, and his influence endures as a vital part of the American narrative-a testament to the enduring power of character, conviction, and the pursuit of progress. "American Heroes: Theodore Roosevelt" is not just a biography; it is a captivating journey through the life and times of a true American legend-a hero whose legacy continues to inspire and guide us in our own pursuit of excellence and the betterment of society.
