Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crusades and the Crusaders The piety and chivalry exhibited by those Christian warriors, who, at an early period of European civilization, le: their homes and their countries to rescue the Holy Sepulchre from the grasp of Moslem conquerors, have since seldom save in the case of men too sceptical to sym pathize, or too stupid to comprehend failed to excite admiration and curiosity. My object, in this book for boys, is to give an idea of the heroes who, animated by religion and heroism, took part in the battles, the sieges, the marvellous enterprises of valor and despair, which make up the history of those great adventures known as the Crusades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroines of the Crusades Jerusalem, the capital of Palestine, whether glorious in the beauty of her first temple, and the excellent wisdom of her philosopher king, or veiled in the darkness of that fatal eclipse in which the solemn scenes of Calvary consummated her glory and shame, has occupied a position in the great drama of human events, more interesting and important than any other city on the globe. But Jerusalem, in the gloom of that moral night which gathered over the nations after the fall of the western Empire of the Romans, exerted a greater influence upon the minds of men than at any for mer period. The insulting Moslem felt a degree of veneration for the splendid ruins over which he walked with all a conqueror's pride - the African anchorite left his solitary hermitage to weep upon Mount Olivet - the European adventurer wreathed his stafi' with the branch ing palm from her holy hills - the despairing Jew sat in sackcloth at her fallen gates, and even the mingled barbarians of the East united with the Christian to revere the spot where art achieved its proudest monument, and poetry found the theme of its sublimest song.

It is marked by the appear. Ance of Mohammed the Prophet of God, as he is styled by those who profess his religion. It is not our intention to become the panegyrists of the Prophet, but truth compels us to acknowledge that he possessed many great and noble qualities; and we might in charity believe, that, born as he was in the midst of idolatry, with the whole world lying in dark ness around him, the light-religion? Of Persia (by far the purest system Of unrevealed religion) sunk and de graded, the Mosaic law become a burdensome and pue rile superstition, and even Christianity itself nearly lost beneath the weight of false philosophy and abject ido latty - he may have been sincere in the first enunciation of the sublime sentence on which his religious system rests, There is no God but God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Assassins: A Romance of the Crusades It was not the juice of the grape alone that had been given to the Assassins, but spices had been added and also haschisch. The potent drug began to work; dull eyes kindled, a strange exaltation possessed them. Their senses were quickened, they felt their strength swell, and they shrieked their battle-songs, clashing their scimitars on their shields. The visages of many were seamed with scars, which changed color as the wine fired their blood, and they boasted of their wounds, while those who had no mark to point to dyed their forearms in the lees so as to look more fierce.

It is a picture of manners rather than a narrative of events. The object proposed has been to set before the view of the reader, as clearly as the existing documents permit, the Crusa ders, the Greeks, the Turks, and the Saracens, of the twelfth century, as they lived, thought, and acted. Hence there will be found much more of anecdote in the following pages than is per haps consistent with legitimate historic narrative. Discussion has been avoided as being unsuitable to a work of this kind, and reflections are intro duced only where they seem to be required, and vpresented themselves naturally.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Crusades, Vol. 2 When we cast a retrospective glance over the periods we have described, we congratulate ourselves upon not having lived in those times of war and trouble; but when we look around us, and reflect upon the age of which we form a part, we fear we have little reason to boast over the epochs commonly termed barbarous. During twenty-five years a revolution, born of opinions unknown to past ages, has pervaded cities, agitated nations, and shaken thrones. This revolution has for auxiliaries war and victory; it strengthens itself with all the obstacles that are opposed to it; it is for ever born again from itself, and when we believe we can perceive the end of its ravages, it re-appears more terrible and menacing than ever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Patriots and Tyrants History has no period which makes a more vivid appeal to the young reader than the thousand years which we call the Middle Ages. The mediaeval world is just such a world as he would like to live in, where knights ride off on crusades, and kings wander out from their palaces in disguise; where heroes sail away to explore unknown seas, and gay cavaliers sally forth to tournament and joust. It requires no effort to interest boys and girls in this part of history. They turn to it with the enthusiasm with which they seize fairy tales and legends of chivalry and romance, and find in its reality a satisfying response to the desire for a true story. The child's interest being assured, the problem is to make this interest of use in the process of his education. The purpose of this series is to relate this fascinating and heroic past to the present by telling the stories from the point of view of the contribution of the Middle Ages to the world of to - day. The heroes gain a new importance and the stories a new meaning by this treatment. Who the mediaeval builders were may be seen by the titles of\ the followmg books, which make up the series: Bar barian and Noble, Patriots and Tyrants, Kings and Common Folk, Craftsman and Artist, Cavalier and Courtier, Sea Kings and Explorers.
