Book Synopsis A Short History of the City of Philadelphia by : Susan Coolidge
Download or read book A Short History of the City of Philadelphia written by Susan Coolidge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-19 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the City of Philadelphia: From Its Foundation to the Present Time It is since the ground on which it stands was an nu broken wilderness, upon which eye of white man had never rested. This is particularly the case with those immense capitals of the West whose birth and growth are comprised within the past half-century but the thought is sufficiently striking with regard to what we term our old settlements. Two centuries and a half - a mere drop in the sum of the ancient civilizations - represents all, and more than all, of what we in America count as antiquity. Take Phila delphia, for instance, - second in population and importance among the cities of the United States, and rivalling in area every capital of Europe, unless it be the city of London its foundation goes back to the earliest days of our colonies yet Rome was.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Philadelphia To-day, when it is the American born in the Ghetto, or Syria, or some other remote part of the earth, whose recollections are prized, it may seem as if the following pages called for an apology. I have none to make. They were written simply for the pleasure of gathering to gether my old memories of a town that, as my native place, is dear to me and my new impressions of it after an absence of a quarter of a century. But now I have finished I add to this pleasure in my book the pleasant belief that it will have its value for others, if only for two reasons. In the first place, J.'s drawings which illustrate it are his record of the old Philadelphia that has passed and the new Philadelphia that is passing - a record that in a few years it will be impossible for anybody to make, so con tinually is Philadelphia changing. In the second, my story of Philadelphia, perfect or imperfect, may in as short a time be equally impossible for anybody to repeat, since I am one of those old-fashioned Americans, Ameri can by birth with many generations of American fore fathers, who are rapidly becoming rare creatures among the hordes of new-fashioned Americans who were any thing and everything else no longer than a year or a week.

Download or read book History of Philadelphia, 1609-1884, Vol. 1 of 3 (Classic Reprint) written by John Thomas Scharf and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 996 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Philadelphia, 1609-1884, Vol. 1 of 3 The desire to leave nothing untold which could in any way throw light upon the history of men, events, and institutions in Philadelphia has made it impossible at times to escape repetition. Facts, which fall within the proper cognizance of the narrative of general events, will sometimes reappear in another shape in the records of institutions or in special chapters. But the fault will claim the reader's indulgence, because intelligent persons prefer a twice-told tale to one neglected or half tad. Several of the themes or chapters of the homogeneous whole have been treated by those who have some particular association or long acquaintance with the subject. In the diversity of writers there will of course be variety of opinions, but they make good the poet's description.

Book Synopsis Pennsylvania in Public Memory by : Carolyn Kitch
Download or read book Pennsylvania in Public Memory written by Carolyn Kitch and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What stories do we tell about America’s once-great industries at a time when they are fading from the landscape? Pennsylvania in Public Memory attempts to answer that question, exploring the emergence of a heritage culture of industry and its loss through the lens of its most representative industrial state. Based on news coverage, interviews, and more than two hundred heritage sites, this book traces the narrative themes that shape modern public memory of coal, steel, railroading, lumber, oil, and agriculture, and that collectively tell a story about national as well as local identity in a changing social and economic world.

Many soldiers, victims of the smallpox and camp fever, were buried here during the Revolution. The ground under the waving trees and Springing grass, where the birds sing and the children play, is literally full of dead men's bones, but the grass is no less green, the sunshine no less bright, on that account, and the dead sleep none the less peacefully, for the life above them.
