Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wrongs of History Righted My object this evening is not to stress the omissions of history, but rather to urge that some of the wrongs that have already entered history be righted. We of the South have borne too long and too patiently the many misrepresentations concerning us, and we cannot afford to be patient longer. There is a hope that some of the omis sions may enter future history, but what hope can there be of these misrepresentations ever being righted if we neglect to do it now? They have condemned us; they are condemning us; and they will continue to condemn us, if we longer remain indifferent. Let us remember what Dr. Curry said, If history as now written is accepted it will consign the South to infamy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America as I Found It About thirty years ago, articles appeared "Quarterly" in a London Review, which filled the surrounding atmosphere with their evil odours, and whose venom was unhappily not spent when it had crossed three thousand miles of "blue water," so that they excited swellings and high disdain as they spread in the United States. Yet it is probable all the articles dropped from one pen, filled with gall - the pen, one may suppose, of some ancient Tory, whose ancestors had suffered in the War of Independence, or whose political creed admitted not of safety except in feudality and hereditary government, and who therefore was embittered by hearing of prosperity beyond them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Patriotic Selections The first battle in the war for independence had taken place in April 1775. Since that time the colonies of New York, Massachusetts and North Carolina had been invaded by considerable armies. The king of Great Britain had issued a proclamation calling for volunteers to put down the rebellion, and had succeeded in hiring twenty thousand German troops to fight against his American subjects. Notwithstanding this state of affairs the colonies were not all agreed as to the wisdom of breaking with the mother country. Two of the leading colonies, however, Massachusetts and Virginia, were strongly in favor of such action. Accordingly on the 7th of June, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia introduced into Congress the following resolution: - "That these United Colonies are, land of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is and ought to be totally dissolved." - A committee of five consisting of Franklin, Sherman, Livingston, John Adams and Jefferson, were appointed to draw up such a declaration and present it to Congress. The committee unanimously agreed to leave the draft of the document to Jefferson. He submitted it to Adams and Franklin separately, for their inspection and correction, but they made but few changes in it and these were verbal. It was presented to Congress on the 2d of July, by which body it was thoroughly discussed, and some important changes were made. In particular, a passage was stricken out in which Jefferson denounced George III. for encouraging the slave-trade, and also another in which the English people are described as "unfeeling brethren." "We must endeavor to forget our former love for them and hold them as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace friends."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Days and a Night in America Unions, and for years these unions have fought back those who would deny them their rights, without demanding government intercession. Now they demand that their rights be respected and that the law be put into full operation. The unions have fought their battles without implements of war, and yet they have fought back a foe to civilization and freedom more formidable and dangerous than the Kaiser of Germany. The unions have done their work and the entire American public has been aroused and familiarized with the causes of the distress and disturbances of recent years. There is no longer a need for the unions. United States citizenship covers them all and the will of the citizen, expressed in law, shall henceforth govern, not only the citizen himself, but the artificial persons he creates and employs in his life pursuits.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of a Residence in America A preface appears to me necessary to this book, in order that the expectation with which the English reader might Open it should not be disappointed. Some curiosity has of late been excited in England with regard to America its political existence is a momentous experiment, upon which many eyes are fixed, in anxious watching of the resuThis book is, what it professes to be, my personal journal, and not a history or a description of men and manners in the United States. Engaged in an arduous profession, and travelling from city to city in its exercise, my leisure and my Opportunities would have been alike inadequate to such a task. The portion of America which I have visited has been a very small one, and, I imagine, by no means that from which the most interesting details are to be drawn. I have been neither to the south _nor west; consequently have had no opportunity of seeing two large portions of the population of this country, - the enterprising explorers of the late wildernesses on the shores of the Mississippi, and the black race of the slave states, - both classes of men presenting peculiarities of infinite interest to the traveller the one, a source of energy and growing strength, the other, of disease and decay, in this vast political body.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our American Cousins: Being Personal Impressions of the People and Institutions of the United States There is no country in the world, except his own, through which an Englishman will find it pleasanter to travel than America. He is so kindly received, so hospitably entertained, I may say so affectionately treated, that be naturally feels as much at home as if he were in England. Our cousins across the broad Atlantic, indeed, scarcely regard an Englishman as a stranger at all. They certainly do not behave towards him as if he were one. England is called the old country, the mother country, but never a foreign country. And the respect paid to the old land is extended to the travellers who come from it. Every courtesy and attention are given to him. He is told to make himself, and is made to feel himself, perfectly at home. If the visitor does not have a good time of it, or, to put it more emphatically, a high old time of it, it must be mainly his own fault.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among the Americans, And, a Stranger in America Three centuries ago the Reformation broke out, when it was pre dicted that everybody would come to have ideas of his own. A few new creeds flew into the air and alighted upon ledges in the old rocks of Opinion, where they have nestled in inadventurous content, and the groves of thought have seldom since been enlivened by new brightness of plumage or cheered by varieties of song. The republican equality and the republican freedom of America, with their infinite incentives and fertility of aspirations, were to me as a land of new color and new notes, where the minds of the people, like keyless watches, wind them selves up and always keep going. I should have been glad to live there for years, so as to write about it; as it is, I content myself with relating a few of the things which I noticed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Promise of American Life Of an essential constituent In our national ideal. The past should mean less to a European than it does to an American, and the future should mean more. To be sure, American life cannot with impunity be wrenched vio lently from its moorings any more than the life of a European country can; but our American past, compared to that of any European country, has a character all its own. Its peculiarity consists, not merely in its brevity, but in the fact that from the beginning it has been informed by an idea. From the beginning Americans have been anticipating and projecting a better future. From the beginning the Land of Democracy has been figured as the Land of Promise. Thus the American' s loyalty to the national tradition rather affirms than denies the imaginative projection of a better future. An America which was not the Land of Promise, which was not informed by a prophetic outlook and a more or less constructive ideal, would not be the America be queathed to us by our forefathers. In cherishing the Promise of a better national future the Americfiis' fulfilling rathner than imperiling the substafrée of the national tradition.
