We are sure that once Lakes Superior, Huron, and Michigan - all three - poured their waters down through our own Illinois River to the Mississippi, then through the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. It does seem almost unbelievable But wait! Have you ever noticed those long, long bluffs on either side of the Illinois River? They are a great' distance from the present banks of the river, to be sure a whole mile apart we are told. And, really, now that you come to look at them, they do look for all the world as if they were water worn, do they not? See the long horizontal lines the stained rock, the worn ridges.

Book Synopsis The Conquest (Classic Reprint) by : Henry Bedford-Jones
Download or read book The Conquest (Classic Reprint) written by Henry Bedford-Jones and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conquest The story of Pierre Radisson, which is herein related, has passed into history. That he was the first white man to reach the Mississippi, after De Soto, is now admitted. It was he who founded the Hudson's Bay Company, and who opened up the great Northwest to the world, receiving the basest of ingratitude in return. The materials and facts used in this narrative I owe in part to Agnes C. Laut, who has rescued him from oblivion and given him his rightful place in history. The manner of his death no man knows to this day, but it is hard to imagine this world-wandered dying in his bed in London town; one likes to think of him as finding the peace of his hearts desire in the far land which he knew and loved and served so well.

A large part, in fact the great majority, of the engrav ings used to illustrate Men of Illinois were made from photographs taken by Radnor Coover, whose studio is in the Schiller building, Randolph street, Chicago. Mr. Coover is without question in the very front of his profession. For his assistance in making this book pictorially excellent the publisher wishes to thank Mr. Coover heartily, and takes this as the best means of so doing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Two Circuits: A Story of Illinois Life The next friend says, many of them are underdrawn. So to strike an average, I have left it as originally written. It is in no sense an autobiography. Names and places are mostly fictitious; yet the majority of the incidents are as I, and others saw and heard them. They did not always transpire in the order here given. I had a love for the hardy yeomanry of the ear lier days; for their honest, happy, off-hand man ners, modes of thought and speech. I was at home among them for years, enjoying their labor, humor, privations, pleasures and worship. I have aimed to make the characters original, fresh and alive with the buoyancy and vivacity of pioneer life.
