Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Recollections Besides which, another motive powerfully ope rated in leading him to decide on the present attempt, viz. That whilst the Missionary Heralds, and other mediums of religious intelligence, fully record the success attendant on the labours of Missionaries in the East, and other parts of the World, yet very little generally is known of those details which respect social intercourse, and the every day occurrences of an Indian life. To literary reputation the Author lays not an atom of claim. He is sensible of the defects under which he labours, and therefore throws himself upon the charity of the literary world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rambles and Recollections of an Indian Official The Editor's notes, being designed merely to explain and illustrate the text, so as to render the book fully intelligible and helpful' to readers of the present day, have been com pressed into the narrowest possible limits. Even India changes, and observations and criticisms which were perfectly true when recorded can no longer be safely applied without explanation to the India of to-day. The Author's few notes are distinguished by his initials. A Copious analytical index has been compiled. The biblio graphy is as complete as careful inquiry could make it, but it is possible that some anonymous papers by the Author, published in periodicals, may have escaped notice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Stories Many years ago I lived among the Indians and knew them well. They were very different from the Indians of to-day. It would be hard now to find any Indians who are as close to the original traditions as were those old friends of mine. I want to give the boys and girls of to-day a chance to see the Indian as I saw him, and to know how he lived and what he thought. It is a pleasure to tell this story; for I came to love the Indian, and I had great respect for him and for his manner of life. When I first lived among the Dakotas, they were still strongly prejudiced in favor of the old ways, tradi tions and customs. They looked back-with regret upon earlier times, when they lived, unmolested, the wild, free life of the forests. They said that their ancestors were better men than they, because their ancestors lived closer to the Great Spirit, by whom the actions of all Indians were guided. I give the stories as they were told to me by old men who knew and loved the old-time ways, and who wanted to give me the real facts because they saw that I respected their customs and believed in them. In these stories I share with the boys and girls of to-day, who can never know the old-fashioned Indians, my recollections of a busy and happy life among them, at a time when they had not unlearned all the old customs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Servant of John Company: Being the Recollections of an Indian Official Curiously enough, the last post which fell to my lot was none other than the identical J udgeship Of Saharanpore which had been held by the very gentleman whose informa tion had decided my father's wavering disposition. But times had changed. The Queen's direct administration had been followed by many changes, and amongst them had been a new rule for limiting the duration Of our period Of service. Whether a Civil Servant had saved money or not, he now had to retire on a given date. TO one having a numerous Offspring, for some only Of whom he had then been able to provide, here was a serious calamity, and it cannot be denied that in this respect at least the palmy days of the Indian Civil Service have long been no more.

These of all things, perhaps, tend most to link our affections with home by filling the landscapes, so dear to our recollections, with ever-varying groups of the family circles, among whom our infancy and our boyhood have been passed; and among whom we still hope to spend the winter of our days.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Indian The books which are to appear in this series are intended to present peculiar and characteristic phases of earlier development in that portion of our country which lies beyond the Missouri River. The specialization of American history has found expression in numerous studies of the colonial life of New England, New York, and Virginia, indeed, all the Eastern seaboard, and in discussions of explorations westward like those of the Spaniards to the south and the French to the north, and of migrations away from the seaboard, like the movement across the Blue Ridge to Kentucky, and the various patriarchal journeyings which began the settlement of Ohio and the middle West. The final occupation of the real West has come about almost in our own time. The first white male child born in Kansas is an honoured resident of the State to-day, and Kansas is venerable in comparison with States and Territories beyond. Speaking roughly, the Missouri divides sections very dissimilar in certain characteristics of their evolution.

Book Synopsis The Indian (Classic Reprint) by : George Bird Grinnell
Download or read book The Indian (Classic Reprint) written by George Bird Grinnell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian This volume might be called one of recollections, for in it have been set down many memories of Indian life. The scenes described I have witnessed with my own eyes; the stories related are those which have been told me by the Indians themselves. These stories are introduced freely because the con crete example conveys a clearer idea of an event than an abstract statement, and because the story of the Indian should not be told wholly from the point of view of a race alien in thought, feeling, and culture. No narrative about any people can do them justice if written by one who is not in some degree in sympathy with them, and acquainted with their ways of thought and with the motives which govern them. Before an intelligent account of it can be given, the stranger race must be comprehended. Long association with Indi ans enables a white man ultimately to share their thought and feelings; and he who has reached this point understands the Indian. He understands that the red man is a savage and has savage qualities, yet he sees also that the most impressive characteristic of the Indian is his humanity. For in his Simplicity, his vanity, his sensitiveness to ridicule, his desire for re venge, and his fear of the supernatural, he is a child and acts like one.

Book Synopsis Memories of India by : Robert Baden-Powell
Download or read book Memories of India written by Robert Baden-Powell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of India: Recollections of Soldiering, and Sport Erhaps the only redeeming point about these Memories is that they are largely ex tracted from diaries and letters which were not written with the idea of anyone ever seeing them except my mother. To some extent they tell directly against me, since they show me to have been just the ordinary silly young ass who enjoyed sense less ragging, was fond of dogs and horses, and thought very little as he went through the ordinary every-day experiences of a subaltern in India. There is nothing very romantic or very exciting about them, and there is much that is Silly, but at the same time such things have, I think, seldom been set down in writing just as they occurred to one at the time. They may at any rate serve to remind other old officers besides myself that they themselves once felt and did as subalterns now think and do. As we get into our crabbed old age, we are apt to forget that we were once youngsters, as I had almost forgotten that I once enjoyed having all my face except a small patch on the left side scraped bare in a glorious rough and tumble.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of a Virginian: In the Mexican, Indian, and Civil Wars Fredericksburg, Virginia, is one of the historic towns of America. Founded long before the Revolution, upon the Rappahannock River, at the head of tide-water, it commanded for many years the trade of the opulent planters of all that fertile region lying along the Potomac and Rappahannock rivers from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay. The town was the centre of the commercial and social life of that rich region known as the Northern Neck of Virginia and the Piedmont country, where were born and bred the great Fathers of American liberty. In my boyhood there were many there who had walked and talked with John Marshall, George Washington, George Mason, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, and the Lees. For more than a century prior to the Revolution, the sturdy people of that region were often engaged in active war with the great Indian nation once ruled by King Powhatan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections and Reflections It does not fall to the lot of many men to put in a record of upwards of forty years' service in the East. Still fewer can boast of the many advantages that I enjoyed of serving the greater part of my official life under chiefs like the late Lord Cromer, Lord Kitchener, Sir Eldon Gorst, and other Empire-builders. This must be my excuse for venturing to publish my Recollections and Reflections, a privilege usually reserved for men of some eminence. As stated elsewhere in these pages, I have all my life been a great believer in writing annual reports - annual stocktakings, as I have termed them - both on account of the assistance which they afford to the official who may be recording the result of his labours, as welt as for the information which they convey to his successors in office. These memoirs may be regarded as the stocktaking of my life's work, and although - unlike the official recorder - I personally cannot expect to reap any benefit therefrom, still I feel convinced that in the near future many of the problems which I have helped to solve will again have to be dealt with. For the close of the Great War will most assuredly see British officials administering the less civilised States with, and possibly without, the " self-determination " of their respective inhabitants. To these British Administrators, as also to fellow-workers in India and Egypt, I trust that my " Reflections " may prove both useful and instructive. I hope, too, that the general reader may discover something of interest in my " Recollections," even if he has to wade through much ancient history to find it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections During my long and varied career many people, knowing that I started life with nothing to depend upon but my own energies, have consulted me with regard to the prospects of others similarly situated, and I have invariably replied: "No better inheritance could they possibly have." I must, however, confess that in the early stages of such a life as mine one often has fits of depression and grave misgivings as to whether the great difficulties to be contended with can be surmounted. At the same time, in my case, had I not had the spur of necessity in my early days I firmly believe I should not have developed the qualities that have enabled me to cope with the many difficult tasks which have fallen to my lot during a long life.
