Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Gordon Duffee's father, Matthew Duffee was born in Ireland and immigrated to Tuscaloosa, Alabama in 1823. In Tuscaloosa he operated a popular tavern, and he later bought a resort hotel at Blount Springs. Mary Duffee was born in Alabama in 1840 and spent many summers with her family at the resort. It was the journey to and from Blount Springs that inspired Duffee's best-known work, Sketches of Alabama, which originally appeared as fifty-nine articles in the Birmingham Weekly Iron Age in 1886 and 1887. She also contributed articles to several out-of-state newspapers, wrote guide books, advertising copy, and poetry. She died in 1920. This collection contains typescripts of some of Mary Gordon Duffee's Iron Age columns "Sketches of Alabama," manuscripts of seven of Duffee's poems, a typed biographical sketch of Duffee, undated, and Duffee's obituary from the Birmingham Age-Herald.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... WHAT BECAME OF MARY ELLEN WHEN Jim Evans bought the Oakville Chronicle and paid five hundred dollars for it, people called it a "fine deal." At first Jim congratulated himself, deeming the phrase a tribute to his shrewdness; but when he came to view his journalistic property it occurred to him that possibly the compliment had been misappropriated. His misgiving grew when the Argus, the rival sheet, came out with the following paragraph: Old Brown, of the Chronicle, has finally sold his moribund paper. It is perhaps unnecessary to state that his victim is a stranger. He hails from Mississippi, and is red-headed. Let us hope that his florid locks may throw at least a hectic glow on the dullness of our expiring contemporary. "I'm not red-headed; my hair is auburn," said Evans, indignantly. "I'll make the Chronicle a big success, if I have to work day and night. Hang the Argus!" "Amen!" Evans had supposed himself alone in the ramshackle office, and turning abruptly, his glance fell upon a boy of sixteen, who met his eye with a smile, half fearful, half impudent. To Evans's startled inquiry the boy explained that he was Tom Wilson, the Chronicle devil; and upon his insisting that he "went with the paper," and could set type, Evans reengaged him, and, with his staff of one, the young editor settled down to work. The item most lauded by Brown had been the Chronicle's "good-will." Experience proved that this intangible thing represented the right to solicit advertisements, and the doubtful pleasure of entertaining Colonel Badham, a decayed politician, who dropped in daily, with a bottle of cough mixture, to read the exchanges. "Does he go with the paper, too?" asked Evans of Tom, at the end of a week. "Who, the Colonel?" Evans nodded. "I don't...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alabama Sketches Dan Groby, the negro sexton, knew more of the unquiet pastorate of the Rev. Mr. Crofton than any one at Oakville. Vibrating in his daily duties between the church and the rectory, he lived in the thick of the fight. It was on the forenoon of the day before Easter that Dan, leaning on his broom in front of the church door, narrated to me the events which had occurred during my long absence. "Hit do look peaceful, don't it, sah?" said Dan, gazing up at the little Gothic structure with moss-grown roof shaded by great water-oaks, in whose ivy-draped boughs mocking birds builded and sang perennially. "Dat vine dar's growed a heap since you went away." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LARGE PRINT EDITION title: The Flush Times Of Alabama and Mississippi By Joseph G. Baldwin. "SOME of these papers were published in the SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER, and having met with a favorable reception from the Public, and a portion of the Press, the author has yielded to the solicitations of his own vanity, and other flattering friends, and collected them in a volume with other pieces of the same general character. The scheme of the articles he believes to be original in design and execution, - at least, no other work with which he is acquainted, has been published in the United States designed to illustrate the periods, the characters, and the phases of society, some notion of which is attempted to be given in this volume. The author, under the tremor of a first publication, felt strongly inclined to offer a sneaking apology for the many errors and imperfections of his work; such as the fact that the articles were written in haste, under the pressure of professional engagements and amidst constant interruptions; and that he has no time or opportunity for correction and revision. But he anticipated the too ready answer to such a plea: "If you had no time to write well, why did you write at all? Who constrained you? If you were not in dress to see company, why come unbidden into the presence of the public? Why not, at least, wait until you were fit to be presented?" He confesses that he sees no way to answer these tough questions, unless the apology of Falstaff for rushing into the presence of King Hal, "before he had time to have made new liveries" - "stained with travel and sweating with desire to see him," - be a good one - as, "inferring the zeal he had to see him" - "the earnestness of affection" - "the devotion: " but in poor Jack's case, "not to deliberate, not to remember, not to have patience to shift him," was not a very effectual excuse for his coming out of sorts; and we are afraid, that that other Sovereign, the Public, is not more facile of approach, or more credulous of excuses; for, unfortunately, the ardor of an author's greeting is something beyond the heat of the Public's reception of him, or, as Pat expresses it, the reciprocity of feeling is all on one side. Without apology, therefore, he gives these leaves to the winds, - with that feeling of comfort and composure which comes of the knowledge that, let the venture go as it may, he loses little who puts but little at hazard."
