Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winning a Cause, World War Stories Lest We Forget, the first volume of World War stories, gave an outline of the struggle up to the time of the signing of the armistice, November 1918, and contained in general, chronological order most of the stories that to children from ten to sixteen years of age would be' of greatest interest, and give the clearest understanding of the titanic contest. This, the second volume of the same series, contains the stories of the war of the character described, that were not included in Lest We Forget, stories of the United States naval heroes, of the Americans landed in France, of the concluding events of the war, of the visit of President Wilson to Europe, and of the Peace Conference. In a word, emphasis is placed upon America's part in the struggle. This volume should be of even greater interest to American children than the first, for it tells the story of America's greatest achievement, of a nation under taking a tremendous and terrible task not for material gain, but for an ideal.

Book excerpt: On April 19, 1775, was fired "the shot heard round the world." It was the shot fired for freedom and democracy by the Americans at Lexington and Concord. In 1836, upon the completion of the battle monument at Concord, the gallant deeds of those early patriots were commemorated by Emerson in verse. By the rude bridge that arched the flood, Their flag to April's breeze unfurled, Here once the embattled farmers stood, And fired the shot heard round the world. This is not the only shot for freedom fired by America and Americans. As President Wilson has said, "The might of America is the might of a sincere love for the freedom of mankind." The shots of the Civil War were fired for united democracy and universal freedom.

Download or read book Lest We Forget, 1920 (Classic Reprint) written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lest We Forget, 1920 Look through these pages and be convinced that Union University is really a great, growing, up-to-date school. Observe the numbers, the enthusiasm, and the variety of courses, activities, and advantages. Few schools have more spirit and "pep," which indicates vigor and life. Young folks like it because it gives them the spirit and enthusiasm necessary to enter successfully in the conflict of life. Union literally pulsates with the vigor and enthusiasm of young life, and yet there is all of the time a sense of tremendous energy under fine control, which gives a pleasing sense of power, security, and efficiency. It is just the atmosphere to please the choicest young people, and it develops the best that is within them. Location Jackson is a city of 20,000 people, and situated in the very heart of West Tennessee. There is not a more accessible place anywhere. Railroads radiate out in eight directions. Three national highways intersect here. There are twenty-eight trains with an unexcelled schedule. Literally thousands of high school graduates can reach Jackson without a change of train. Jackson is a church-going town. Fifty percent of the population have their names on church books, and $750,000 is the investment in church buildings. What city of 20,000 can equal this record? The climate is fine, and the water supply can hardly be equaled. Buildings and Equipment Union has five buildings: Barton Hall (Administration Building), Lovelace Hall (for young ladies). Conservatory (a self-boarding hall for young ladies), Adam's Hall (for young men) and the power house. These buildings and the grounds cannot be replaced for $400,000. The endowment is $140,000, and Union's remaining part of the 75 million fund is $275,000, or a total of $815,000. Attendance The enrollment for the past year was 741 against 157 in 1914 The summer school which is in session at the time this article is written has already gone above 325, which far surpasses any previous record. The outlook for next falls enrollment is equally flattering. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book When Books Went to War written by Molly Guptill Manning and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This New York Times bestselling account of books parachuted to soldiers during WWII is a “cultural history that does much to explain modern America” (USA Today). When America entered World War II in 1941, we faced an enemy that had banned and burned 100 million books. Outraged librarians launched a campaign to send free books to American troops, gathering 20 million hardcover donations. Two years later, the War Department and the publishing industry stepped in with an extraordinary program: 120 million specially printed paperbacks designed for troops to carry in their pockets and rucksacks in every theater of war. These small, lightweight Armed Services Editions were beloved by the troops and are still fondly remembered today. Soldiers read them while waiting to land at Normandy, in hellish trenches in the midst of battles in the Pacific, in field hospitals, and on long bombing flights. This pioneering project not only listed soldiers’ spirits, but also helped rescue The Great Gatsby from obscurity and made Betty Smith, author of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, into a national icon. “A thoroughly engaging, enlightening, and often uplifting account . . . I was enthralled and moved.” — Tim O’Brien, author of The Things They Carried “Whether or not you’re a book lover, you’ll be moved.” — Entertainment Weekly

Book excerpt: This skilfully compiled anthology draws on the phenomenally successful Forgotten Voices series. Lest We Forget brings together first-hand recollections from the Great War to the Second World War, to vividly illustrate the impact of war. Told in the actual words of the men, women and children who lived through a century of war it is a moving insight into the greatest conflicts of the twentieth century. The testaments of those who were there depict the horrors of war, yet also provide inspiration with tales of enduring courage, sacrifice and daring. Arranged thematically into chapters such as hope, fear, the kindness of strangers, the human cost and brothers in arms, it reveals the full scope of war in all its stark reality. Evocatively illustrated throughout with line drawings from the Imperial War Museum's archives, it will appeal to anyone wanting to gain an insight into not only specific conflicts, but the overarching and sometimes surprising effects of war in general. Lest We Forget vividly ensures that the wartime experiences of ordinary people will never be forgotten.
