Book excerpt: Excerpt from Benjamin Franklin, a Picture of the Struggles of Our Infant Nation, One Hundred Years Ago Next to George Washington, we must write, upon the Catalogue of American Patriots, the name of Benjamin Franklin. He had so many virtues that there is no need of exaggerating them so few imperfections that they need not be concealed. The writer has endeavored to give a perfectly accurate view of his character, and of that great struggle, in which he took so conspicuous a part, which secured the Independence of the United States. Probably there can no where be found, within the same limits, so vivid a picture of Life in America, one hundred years ago, as the career of Franklin presents. This volume is the twelfth of the Library Series of Pioneers and Patriots. The series presents a graphic history of our country from its discovery.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Life: A Narrative of Two Years' City and Country Residence in the United States IN submitting these few sheets to the public, the authoress Wishes to be considered as presenting a faithful record of her observations, and of events as they occurred Within the limits of her experience, during her continuance in the United States. Whenever she has felt herself called upon to give an opinion, she has endeavoured impartially to comply; and when, in delineating characters, she has been compelled to draw upon fiction for names, in order to avoid inﬂicting an injury by an unnecessary exposure; it may be concluded with certainty that the names alone are fictitious, and that the individuals represented are correctly de pioted in their proper colours. While employed in preparing this small volume for the press, that opinion, so frequently expressed by the Americans, has often occurred to her: viz.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life in America, or the Wigwam and the Cabin The revolutionary war had but a little while been concluded. The British had left the country; but peace did not imply re pose. The community was still in that state of ferment which was natural enough to passions, not yet at rest, which had been brought into exercise and action during the protracted seven years' struggle through which the nation had just passed. The state was overrun by idlers, adventurers, profil gates, and criminals. Disbanded soldiers, half-starved and reckless, occupied the highways, -outlaws, emerging from their hiding-places, skulked about the settlements with an equal sentiment of hate and fear in their hearts - 7patriots were clamouring for justice upon the tories, and sometimes anticipating its course by judgments of their own; while the tories, those against whom the proofs were too strong for de nial or evasion, buckled on their armour for a renewal of the struggle. Such being the condition of the country, it may easily be supposed that life and property lacked many of their necessary securities. Men generally travelled with weapons which were displayed on the smallest provocation; and few who could provide themselves with an escort ventured to travel any distance without one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Loyal Little Red-Coat: A Story of Child-Life in New York a Hundred Years Ago IN the introductory chapter of The History of the People of the United States, Mr. Mcmaster announces as his subject, The history Of the people from the close of the war for Independence down to the opening Of the war between the States. It seems at first thought improbable that a history excluding both the Revolu tion and the Civil War should prove in any great degree interesting, but the first twelve pages suffice to convince one to the contrary. With consummate skill in selection and narration, Mr. Mcmaster has brought to light information Of a singularly novel character. Impressed with this unlooked-for quality, it occurred to me that here was ground that had not been previously gone over - not, at any rate, in a story for children. A Loyal Little red-coat has been the outcome. Whether I have succeeded in transferring to these pages aught of the peculiar interest Of the history remains to be seen. This much may be said, however, that every historical allusion is based upon actual fact. The English Circus, the Captain's letter, Harry's prison-ship experiences, Alexander Hamilton's successful defence Ofa Tory client, the treatment Of the Bonifaces at the ball all find their counterpart in the realities of a century ago. For much of the minor historical detail I am indebted to those rare and quaint Old volumes, carefully treasured by our historical societies, which make possible the faithful recounting of the story Of bygone days. In my attempt to reproduce the child-life of a time so far removed, I have probably been guilty of some anachronisms. If, however, I have woven a page Of history into a story that, by any chance, shall interest the children, for whom it has been a delight to me to write it, I shall be sincerely grateful.

A man may be tempted to say more of him self than the nature of the case will justify. He may' be in danger of speaking too highly of himself; for it is a well-known fact, that those persons who do speak often of themselves are apt to do it in terms of self-commendation, either directly, or in directly; and this, in the estimation of many, savers too much of personal vanity.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romances of Early America Position of the lad who, when twitted about his youth, answered that he would outgrow the fault, if given a little time. America is fast outgrowing this fault of extreme youth. The country already has a past of which it may be proud, and one that is full of pictur esqueness. The more it is written about the more inter esting it seems, and the greater is the wonder that the New World offers so much pleasant romance to the reader. The age in which we live may be prosaic, and marked by the worship of Mammon, yet the public never showed a livelier appreciation than it does now of the dead-and-gone heroes and heroines who lived and loved, lost or won, in the early days of our history. I trust, therefore, that a place in the bookcase may be found for these Romances of Early America. The characters of whom they treat faded into shadows many years ago, but the theme of the volume - the old, old story - is ever new, and worth the telling.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Silhouettes of American Life Nothing could well be more commonplace or ignoble than the corner of the world in which Miss Dilly now spent her life. A wayside inn, near a station on the railway which runs from Salisbury, in North Carolina, up into the great Appalachian range of mountains; two or three unpainted boxes of houses scattered along the track by the inn; not a tree nor blade of grass in the "clarin"; a few gaunt, long-legged pigs and chickens grunting and cackling in the muddy clay yards; beyond, swampy tobacco fields stretching to the encircling pine woods. For Sevier Station lay on the lowland; the mountains rose far to the west, like a blue haze on the horizon. The railway ran like a black line across the plain, and stopped at their foot at a hamlet called Henry's; thence an occasional enterprising traveller took "the team" up the precipitous mountain road to Asheville, then a sleepy village unknown to tourists.
