The sisters in-law had driven off with their respective husbands, and Richard Thorne, with a long-drawn sigh, half disconsolate, half relieved, closed the door and returned to his library. He threw a fresh log on the fire and wheeled up his favorite arm-chair, into whose comforting recesses he sank with another sigh. This time the relief was predominant.A cold, damp muzzle was thrust sympathetically into his hand, and he caressed the head of a large, very old mastiff.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Dramatic Story, of Old Glory (Classic Reprint) by : Samuel Abbott
Download or read book The Dramatic Story, of Old Glory (Classic Reprint) written by Samuel Abbott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dramatic Story, of Old Glory Flag stands for one hundred millions of people com posed Of many races, classes, creeds and parties. The appeal must be addressed to the imagination of men, especially of the youth of the land. This explains the undying popularity and also the special utility of our national song: The Star Spangled Banner. It is connected with a thrilling incident when, in one of the darkest hours of the Republic, when its fortunes were at their lowest ebb since the days of Valley Forge, a little band of Americans held out against a superior power. The poet caught the spirit of the occasion and found his inspiration in the fact that, over the smoke Of battle, the Flag was still there. Mr. Abbott has, therefore, done a public service in narrating in an interesting way the history of the Amer ican Flag, and it is to be hoped, not merely because it is a readable book, but because it should be a potent weapon for a quickened patriotism, that the book will have a wide circulation and that, through its interesting pages, thousands of Americans may better know their country and its Flag.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Uses of History: An Address Delivered Before the New York Historical Society on Its Eighty-Fifth Anniversary, Thursday, November 21, 1889 DO we not make unconscious confessions of the truth that our age is, in essentials, like its predeces sors and by no means perfect Why study Plato? Why find models Of eloquence in Demosthenes and Cicero? Or, coming down later, where do we search for models in art, in architecture, even to some extent in dress? Making all allowance for the childish folly that sometimes stamps a thing as necessarily superior because it is Old, or because it comes from the ends Of the earth, we must, if we study history candidly, deny ourselves, as a genera tion, the monopoly Of genius and triumphant mastery over the forces of nature. On the way to Chicago, the other day, I said to a man on the other side Of my dining-table, We get out more comfortably than did the first settlers in Chicago. Yes, said he, modestly, it took me twenty-one days to go to it the first time. I respected him, and I did not men tally compliment myself as a traveller any more. And just so, if this lauded nineteenth century calmly confers with some Of its predecessors, it will modify its estimate Of itself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Views and Reviews in American Literature, History and Fiction History But these excuses can be urged no longer, nor is it necessary that they should. Europe must cease to taunt us because of our prolonged servility to the imperious genius of the Old World. We must set ourselves free from the tyranny of this genius, and the time has come when we must do so. We have our own na tional mission to perform - a mission commensurate to the extent of our country, - its resources and possessions, - and the numer ous nations, foreign and inferior, all about us, over whom we are required to extend our sway and guardianship. We are now equal to this sway and guardianship. The inferior necessities of our condition have been overcome. The national mind is now free to rise to the consideration of its superior wants and more elevated aims; and individuals, here and there, are starting out from the ranks of the multitude, ready and able to lead out, from the bondage of foreign guidance, the genius which, hitherto, be cause Of its timidity, knew nothing of its own resources for flight and conquest.

Book Synopsis Readings in Classical Political Thought by : Peter J. Steinberger
Download or read book Readings in Classical Political Thought written by Peter J. Steinberger and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Building on this core is a sufficiently diverse and substantial selection of texts from other writers--including Thucydides and the Sophists--to allow for inquiry into the variety of Classical Greek approaches to politics, as well as into Roman, Medieval and Renaissance developments of the classical tradition.

Book Synopsis Ancient Mining by : Charles Whittlesey
Download or read book Ancient Mining written by Charles Whittlesey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Mining: Shores of Lake SuperiorThe evidences of ancient mining operations within the mineral region of Lake Superior were first brought to public notice in the winter of 1847 - 8. Although the Jesuit fathers frequently mention the existence of copper, and even use the term mines, it is clear, from the general tenor of their narratives, that they neither saw nor knew of any actual mining in the technical sense of that word. They announced as early as the year 1636 the presence of native copper, and refer to it as having been taken from the mines. This was prior to the time when they had themselves visited the Great Lake, and their information was derived from Indians. At the same time they speak with equal certainty of mines of gold, rubies, and steel but it must be borne in remembrance that the French word is not equivalent to our English mines, but may be more correctly rendered veins or deposits of metals or ores.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis A Brief History of Printing in England by : Frederick W. Hamilton
Download or read book A Brief History of Printing in England written by Frederick W. Hamilton and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A BRIEF HISTORY of PRINTING IN ENGLAND England was slow to take up printing and slow and backward in the development of it. It was 25 years after the invention of printing before any printing was done in England. It was many years after that before the work of the English printers could compare with that done on the continent. The reason for this is to be found in the conditions of the country itself. Although the two great universities had long been in existence, Oxford dating back to 1167 and Cambridge to 1209, England as a whole was a backward country. In culture and the refinements of civilization, as well as in many more practical things, England was not so far advanced as the rest of Europe nor was it to be so for many years to come. England at this time was an agricultural and grazing country. A colony of Flemings had been brought over to start the cloth industry. There was still, nevertheless, a large export of wool to Flanders, which was there woven and sent back as cloth. The English nobles lived largely on their estates, looking after their tenants, hunting for diversion, and doing a little fighting occasionally when life became otherwise unbearably uninteresting. They were not an educated class and the peasantry were profoundly ignorant. The cities which, as always, depended upon manufacture and commerce were just beginning to grow, with the exception of some of the seaport towns which were already prosperous and wealthy. Not only was this general condition true, but there were special conditions which rendered the middle of the fifteenth century unfavorable to culture and to the introduction of a new invention auxiliary to culture. In 1450 England was shaken and horrified by the bloody insurrection of peasants, with its attendant outrages, known as Jack Cade’s Revolt. Scarcely had order been restored when a disputed succession to the crown plunged the country into the bloody civil war between the adherents of the Houses of York and Lancaster, known as the Wars of the Roses. This period of civil strife lasted for thirty years and affected the general welfare of England very seriously. It was especially marked by mortality among the noblest families in the realm, many of which were actually exterminated. Some time within this bloody half-century the art of printing was introduced into England. There is in existence a book printed in Oxford and dated on the title page 1468. Upon the existence of this book, and upon a somewhat doubtful legend, has been built a claim that English printing originated in Oxford. This claim, however, has practically ceased to be maintained. The legend appears to be baseless, and it has been generally concluded that the date is a misprint and that it should be 1478, an X having been dropped in writing the Roman date, a not uncommon error in publications of this period. Historians have now generally agreed that the introduction of printing in England is due to William Caxton, one of the most interesting figures in the whole annals of printing.

This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flowers of Superior Beauty and Hardiness, 1927 For twenty years we have been growing Peonies, Iris, Gladiolus bulbs, etc, and for twenty years we have been too conservative to say much about ourselves. From a very modest beginning of just a few acres of ground our business has grown and expanded until we now have under cultivation more than one hundred acres, and the fame of our flowers and bulbs are now attracting the attention of flower growers all over the United States. We now believe that the time has arrived for us to state that we are in the business to stay, and that we have a collection of Peonies, Iris and Gladiolus that any grower would be proud of. We do not boast of being the largest or oldest growers of these plants and bulbs ln the country, nor do we boast of being originators of world fame, although we have had a lot of pleasure and satisfaction in propagating new varieties of Iris and Peonies, and have put on the market some Iris of real merit. We hope within the next year or two to introduce a few of our new Peonies, but we have no hesitancy ln stating that we have pleased thousands of customers with the class of stock that we send out, and we are Sure that if we never have had the pleasure of doing business with you, a trial order will con vince you that our stock is strictly first class and will prove satisfactory to you. As you have already noticed, we are located at Winona, Minnesota. Our office, storage cellar, warehouses and two of our farms are located on Highway number seven, just inside of the city limits. Highway number seven is also United States Highway number fourteen, and is on the road to Rochester and west to the Black Hills, passing right by our Home place. Our third farm in on Highway number three, about four miles west of Winona. Highway number three is the main Highway from Chicago to Saint Paul or Minneapolis. This Highway starts at La Crosse, Wisconsin, and fol lows the Mississippi River, being known as the Mississippi River Scenic Highway. If you have never traveled through this state of ten thousand lakes, give yourself a treat this summer by doing so, and be sure to stop off at the pfeiffer nursery on your way through. Visitors are always welcome. Our fields ln full bloom, surrounded by majestic green-clad hills are a sight that will not be forgotten.
