Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Abraham Lincoln: Being a Biography of His Life From His Birth to His Assassination; Also a Record of His Ancestors, and a Collection of Anecdotes Attributed to Lincoln Near the point where the states of Virginia, Tennessee and Kentucky meet there is a wonderful gateway in the mountains, which was discovered in 1748, by Thomas Walker, and named Cumberland Gap, in honor of the Duke of Cumberland, prime minister to King George of England. He reported that it opened into a beautiful region inhabited by Indians and wild animals. From this gap north to where the waterways which form the Ohio river break through the mountains the rugged and towering Alleghenies present an almost impassable wall between Virginia and the country west. This barrier helped to protect the inhabitants against the warrior bands of western Indians, and for a time confined the march of the settler to the Shenandoah valley. Daniel Boone had heard of the discovery of an opening in the mountains not far from his home, an I thirsted for exploration of the unknown solitudes beyond, through which only Indians roamed. He was one of the elder sons of Squire Boone, who had come from Pennsylvania and settled in Wilkes county, North Carolina, on the Yadkin river. From his youth Daniel had shown a special fondness for hunting. Before he was ten years old he could shoot a deer while it was upon the run, and while yet a lad made long trips from home alone and was never lost. He was a born woodsman. He had the cunning and eye of an Indian, and could determine the points of the compass by the stars, like a mariner. En 1769, this intrepid hunter, in company with three companions, passed through Cumberland Gap into the wild territory west of the mountains, on a hunting and exploring expedition. As they advanced, the country and attractions improved. They traveled through vast reaches of somber forest, penetrating far into the interior. Boone and one of his companions were captured by the Indians, but made their escape. When they returned to their camp, the other two men had disappeared, and were never heard of again. Boone remained so long away from home that his younger brother, accompanied by a friend, came in search of him. Instead of returning, he sent his brother back for powder and bullets.

Book Synopsis The Life of Abraham Lincoln by : Josiah Gilbert Holland
Download or read book The Life of Abraham Lincoln written by Josiah Gilbert Holland and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Josiah Gilbert Holland's "The Life of Abraham Lincoln" is a comprehensive detail of Lincoln's life, from his birth and young life in Kentucky, to Indiana, and his life in Decatur, New Salem, and Springfield, Illinois, to his life in the White House, as the 16th President of the United States, during the country's most turbulent and uncertain period of its history, the Civil War. This fascinating biography contains many anecdotes and reminiscences told by many of Lincoln's friends and contemporaries, still fresh in their minds and bring him to life off the pages of history. Many of Lincoln's quotes and speeches, and excerpts are detailed, as well as details of his own premonitions of his death, how (and where) he got his well-deserved nickname "Honest Abe", and how the country was first introduced to his ax-wielding skills. Even those who consider themselves knowledgeable about Abraham Lincoln are likely to make surprising discoveries. About this edition: Holland's Life of Abraham Lincoln is completely and accurately updated, from the original 1865 edition, to easy to read font. This unabridged edition is true to the original, and contains all footnotes and illustrations of the original work. From the book's author himself:Holland's Life of Abraham Lincoln, late President of the United States, comprising a full and complete history of his eventful life, with incidents of his early history, his career as a lawyer and politician, his advancement to the Presidency of the United States and Commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy through the most trying period of its history, together with an account of the tragical and mournful scenes connected with the close of his noble and eventful life.By Dr. J. G. Holland, the widely known and favorite author of the "Timothy Titcomb" letters, "Bitter Sweet," "Gold Foil," etc. The author's aim will be to describe as graphically as may be the private and public life of the humble citizen, the successful lawyer, the pure politician, the far-sighted Christian statesman, the efficient philanthropist, and the honored chief Magistrate. The people desire a biography which shall narrate to them with a measurable degree of symmetry and completeness, the story of a life which has been intimately associated with their own and changed the course of American history through all coming time. Such a narrative as this it will be the author's aim to give - one that shall be sufficiently full in detail without being prolix, and circumstantial without being dull.

Book Synopsis The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln by : Francis Fisher Browne
Download or read book The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln written by Francis Fisher Browne and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1913 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present revision of "The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln" was the last literary labor of its author. He had long wished to undertake the work, and had talked much of it for several years past. But favorable arrangements for the book's republication were not completed until about a year ago. Then, though by no means recovered from an attack of pneumonia late in the previous winter, he took up the task of revision and recasting with something of his old-time energy. It was a far heavier task than he had anticipated, but he gave it practically his undivided attention until within three or four weeks of his death. Only when the last pages of manuscript had been despatched to the printer did he yield to the overwhelming physical suffering that had been upon him for a long time past. His death occurred at Santa Barbara, California, on May 11. Francis Fisher Browne was born at South Halifax, Vermont, on December 1, 1843. His parentage, on both sides, was of the purest New England stock. Early in his childhood, the family moved to Western Massachusetts, where the boy went to school and learned the printing trade in his father's newspaper office at Chicopee. As a lad of eighteen, he left the high school in answer to the government's call for volunteers, serving for a year with the 46th Massachusetts Regiment in North Carolina and with the Army of the Potomac. When the regiment was discharged, in 1863, he decided to take up the study of vilaw. Removing to Rochester, N.Y., he entered a law office in that city; and a year or two later began a brief course in the law department of the University of Michigan. He was unable to continue in college, however, and returned to Rochester to follow his trade.

Book Synopsis Abraham Lincoln and His Ancestors by : Ida Minerva Tarbell
Download or read book Abraham Lincoln and His Ancestors written by Ida Minerva Tarbell and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I found it an inspiring thing to trace the roads these seven successive generations of Lincoln pioneers traveled, to look upon the remains of their homes, reconstruct from documents and legends their activities, judge what manner of men and women they were, the place they held among their fellows. In these wanderings the whole history of the United States seemed to unroll before me. In this Lincoln migration we have the family history of millions of our contemporaries."-Ida M. Tarbell, in her preface. Young Samuel Lincoln, who had been apprenticed as a weaver in England, arrived in the Puritan colony of Boston Bay in 1637. Ida M. Tarbell traces the generations from Samuel to Abraham Lincoln, offering rich details of character and circumstance and showing that the president's ancestors were not precisely as his detractors painted them. She takes Abraham Lincoln from the cabin of his birth to the White House, where he is introduced to a nation in crisis. Ida M. Tarbell is remembered for her muckraking journalism and her exposi of the Standard Oil Company. Kenneth J. Winkle is an associate professor of history at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and author of The Politics of Community: Migration and Politics in Antebellum Ohio.
