Book Synopsis Chesapeake Legends and Lore from the War of 1812 by : Ralph E Eshelman
Download or read book Chesapeake Legends and Lore from the War of 1812 written by Ralph E Eshelman and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the two hundred years following the War of 1812, the Chesapeake Campaign became romanticized in tall tales and local legends. St. Michael's on the Eastern Shore of Maryland was famously cast as the town that fooled the British, and in Baltimore, the defenders of Fort McHenry were reputably rallied by a remarkably patriotic pet rooster. In Virginia, the only casualty in a raid on Cape Henry was reportedly the lighthouse keeper's smokehouse larder, while Admiral Cockburn was said to have supped by the light of the burning Federal buildings in Washington, D.C. Newspaper stories, ordinary citizens and even military personnel embellished events, and two hundred years later, those embellishments have become regional lore. Join historians Ralph E. Eshelman and Scott S. Sheads as they search for the history behind the legends of the War of 1812 in the Chesapeake.

Book Synopsis The Sign Language of Astronomical Mythology by : Gerald Massey
Download or read book The Sign Language of Astronomical Mythology written by Gerald Massey and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origin of a saviour in the guise of a little child is traceable to Child-Horus, who brought new life to Egypt every year as the Messu of the inundation. This was Horus in his pre-solar and pre-human characters of the fish, the shoot of the papyrus, or the branch of the endless years. In a later stage the image of Horus on his papyrus represented the young god as solar cause in creation. But in the primitive phase it was a soul of life or of food ascending from the water in vegetation, as he who climbs the stalk, ranging from Child-Horus to the Polynesian hero, and to Jack ascending heavenward by means of his bean-stalk. from The Sign Language of Astronomical Mythology It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a hidden history of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey 's massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs. Here, Cosimo proudly presents the combined Books 5 and 6 of Ancient Egypt, in which Massey discusses the primeval, iconic representations that link the Earth and the heavens, and ties the oldest understandings of astronomy with the mythology of the creation of the universe and humanity. From the symbols and myths of water, drowning, and floods to those light and darkness, blindness and sight and many others Massey shows how that imagery plays out in the Egyptian zodiac, and in turn indelibly influenced modern religion. Peculiar and profound, this work will intrigue and delight readers of history, religion, and mythology. British author GERALD MASSEY (1828 1907) published works of poetry, spiritualism, Shakespearean criticism, and theology, but his best-known works are in the realm of Egyptology, including A Book of the Beginnings and The Natural Genesis.

This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land of Legendary Lore, Sketches of Romance and Reality on the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake The "Poet Priest of the South," the Reverend Father Ryan, has beautifully and pathetically expressed the sentiment that "A land without ruins is a land without memories." and the words find a chord to vibrate in the heart of each one who holds a love for one's country, his birth-place and the soil that rests lightly upon the ashes of his dead. Go where one will, become what one may, remembrance wil turn longingly to the dead past, and "Be it ever so humble" the heart treasures the recollections of home and with tenderest feelings recalls the "days of Auld Lang Syne." In all this broad country of ours, its mountains, valleys and prairies, dotted with cities, villages and homes, there is no single spot more filled with memories of the earlier history of America than is the favored spot of which I write - this "Land of Legrndary Lore." Settled afar back in American history, a century and a half before the United States sprung into existence as a nation, under the touch of the magic wand of Freedom, the country washed by the deep blue waters of the ever restless Chesapeake, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, once the favored dwelling place of the Indians, whose graves and war implements alone remain to mark the passing away of an aboriginal people, was the Mecca of early settlers, the haven of mariners from the wide world over, as well as the ideal haunt of buccaneers, and from them all, in the passing panorama of life, have sprung the legends, romance and reality of this story told of old times in Maryland. From the ashes of the past has sprung up a Land of Promise, as it were, and Talbot, the Garden Spot of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, today inhabited by a hospitable, progressive people, will never forget its past as long as there are graves, legends and fireside tales to keep memory alive.
