Book Synopsis The Boys' Life of Lafayette [Illustrated] by : Helen Nicolay
Download or read book The Boys' Life of Lafayette [Illustrated] written by Helen Nicolay and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1920. Helen Nicolay's The Boys' Life of Lafayette is a historical biography that has become familiar in almost every American home, and in this case it is written and illustrated in a style that makes it a double inspiration for study on the part of the newcomer in the midst of us. Here the new American will get a great deal of Washington, as well as of Lafayette, but also of the young Frenchman's home life, and of the noble wife that never complained at being left alone while her husband was across the sea fighting against autocratic tyranny. Mrs. Nicolay enlarges her book with some of Lafayette's share in the French Revolution, which will be a double service to her young reader and the older people who need especially a thorough understanding of the spirit of Lafayette. -The Brooklyn Daily Eagle (Jan. 17, 1921) Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette (6 September 1757 - 20 May 1834), in the U.S. often known simply as Lafayette, was a French aristocrat and military officer who fought in the American Revolutionary War. A close friend of George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Jefferson, Lafayette was a key figure in the French Revolution of 1789 and the July Revolution of 1830. -Wikipedia Excerpt from The Boys' Life of Lafayette PREFACE This is no work of fiction. It is sober history; yet if the bare facts it tells were set forth without the connecting links, its preface might be made to look like the plot of a dime novel. It is the story of a poor boy who inherited great wealth; who ran away from home to fight for liberty and glory; who became a major-general before he was twenty years old; who knew every nook and corner of the palace at Versailles, yet was the blood-brother of American Indians; who tried vainly to save the lives of his king and queen; who was in favor of law, yet remained a rebel to the end of his days; who suffered an unjust imprisonment which has well been called "a night five years long"; who was twice practically Dictator of France; and who, in his old age, was called upon to make a great decision. But it is no work of fiction. It is only the biography of a French gentleman named Lafayette. ____________________________ CONTENTS OF "THE BOYS' LIFE OF LAFAYETTE" PREFACE I WARRIORS AND WILD BEASTS II EDUCATING A MARQUIS III A NEW KING IV AN UNRULY COURTIER V LEADING A DOUBLE LIFE VI A SEA-TURN VII AN AMERICAN PILGRIMAGE VIII AN ASTONISHING RECEPTION IX PROVING HIMSELF A SOLDIER X LETTERS XI A FOOL'S ERRAND XII FARCE AND TREACHERY XIII A LIAISON OFFICER XIV NEAR-MUTINY AND NEAR-IMPRISONMENT XV HELP-AND DISAPPOINTMENT XVI BLACK TREACHERY XVII PREPARING FOR THE LAST ACT XVIII YORKTOWN XIX "THE WINE OF HONOR" XX THE PASSING OF OLD FRANCE XXI THE TRICOLOR XXII THE SANS-CULOTTES XXIII POPULARITY AND PRISON XXIV SOUTH CAROLINA TO THE RESCUE!

Book Synopsis Lafayette in the Somewhat United States by : Sarah Vowell
Download or read book Lafayette in the Somewhat United States written by Sarah Vowell and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of Assassination Vacation and The Partly Cloudy Patriot, an insightful and unconventional account of George Washington’s trusted officer and friend, that swashbuckling teenage French aristocrat the Marquis de Lafayette. Chronicling General Lafayette’s years in Washington’s army, Vowell reflects on the ideals of the American Revolution versus the reality of the Revolutionary War. Riding shotgun with Lafayette, Vowell swerves from the high-minded debates of Independence Hall to the frozen wasteland of Valley Forge, from bloody battlefields to the Palace of Versailles, bumping into John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Lord Cornwallis, Benjamin Franklin, Marie Antoinette and various kings, Quakers and redcoats along the way. Drawn to the patriots’ war out of a lust for glory, Enlightenment ideas and the traditional French hatred for the British, young Lafayette crossed the Atlantic expecting to join forces with an undivided people, encountering instead fault lines between the Continental Congress and the Continental Army, rebel and loyalist inhabitants, and a conspiracy to fire George Washington, the one man holding together the rickety, seemingly doomed patriot cause. While Vowell’s yarn is full of the bickering and infighting that marks the American past—and present—her telling of the Revolution is just as much a story of friendship: between Washington and Lafayette, between the Americans and their French allies and, most of all between Lafayette and the American people. Coinciding with one of the most contentious presidential elections in American history, Vowell lingers over the elderly Lafayette’s sentimental return tour of America in 1824, when three fourths of the population of New York City turned out to welcome him ashore. As a Frenchman and the last surviving general of the Continental Army, Lafayette belonged to neither North nor South, to no political party or faction. He was a walking, talking reminder of the sacrifices and bravery of the revolutionary generation and what the founders hoped this country could be. His return was not just a reunion with his beloved Americans it was a reunion for Americans with their own astonishing, singular past. Vowell’s narrative look at our somewhat united states is humorous, irreverent and wholly original.

Madame de Lafayette was descended, like her husband, from a noble family, and had many charming and admirable qualities. They loved each other devotedly, and shared both pleasures and cares.
