Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The following work is the substance of various speculations, that occasionally amused the author, and enlivened his leisure-hours. It is not intended for the learned; they are above it: nor for the vulgar; they are below it. It is intended for men, who, equally removed from the corruption of opulence, and from the depression of bodily labour, are bent on useful knowledge; who, even in the delirium of youth, feel the dawn of patriotism, and who in riper years enjoy its meridian warmth. To such men this work is dedicated; and that they may profit by it, is the author's ardent wish, and probably will be while any spirit remains in him to form a wish"--Preface.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Discover the game-changing theory of the cycles of history and what past generations can teach us about living through times of upheaval—with deep insights into the roles that Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials have to play—now with a new preface by Neil Howe. First comes a High, a period of confident expansion. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion. Then comes an Unraveling, in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis—the Fourth Turning—when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world—and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict what comes next. Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back five hundred years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four twenty-year eras—or “turnings”—that comprise history’s seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth. Illustrating this cycle through a brilliant analysis of the post–World War II period, The Fourth Turning offers bold predictions about how all of us can prepare, individually and collectively, for this rendezvous with destiny.

And this republic is enabled to provide for the security of its subjects, from an income, which many individuals, both in France and England, squander in vain pomp, and vicious diffipation '. A republic so modelled g inspires virtues of every sort. The people of ct No human work can be everlasting. The seventy-two bailiages of the extsnsive Canton of Bern threaten ruin to the republic. These lucrative offices, which the great council appropriates to its own members, ccasion a constant influx of riches into the capital. Patriotism is observed of late years to be on the decline among the citiw zens of Bern; and no wonder considering that luxury and Llsishness are the never-falling offspring of opulence, When selsishness becomes the ruling paffion of that people, those in power will pilser the public treasure, which is immense, and enrich themselves with the spoils of the republic. Confusion and anaichy must ensue, and the state will settle in a monarchy, qr, more probably, in. an odious demczracy. Switzerland seldom think of a writing to confirm abzrgain: a law-suit is scarce known among them; and many there are who have never heard of an advocate nor of an attorney. Their doors are never shut but in winter. It is patriotism that Montesquieu has in view, when he pronounces virtue to be 'the leading principle in a republic. He has reason to term it so, because patriotism is connected with every social virtue; and, when-it vanishes, every virtue vanishes with it '. Demo. cracy will never be recommended by any enlightened politician, as a good form of government; were it for no other reason but that patriotism cannot long subsist where the mob governs. In monarchy, the King is exalted so high above his subjects, ...

Download or read book A Colored Man in Exeter written by Michael Cameron Ward and published by Michael C Ward. This book was released on 2017-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1957 the Ward family moved from Brooklyn, New York to Lee, New Hampshire to escape gang violence. It was an era when racial tensions were high and they were the first "colored family" in the area. Needless to say, over the years they encountered many interesting experiences and created a storied life. They also became respected members of the community, led by parents, Harold and Virginia Ward, a couple with strong convictions and compassion. Harold, Michael Cameron Ward's 94-year-old father, was hospitalized in the beginning of May 2015 with only weeks to live. On the 20th he made a request of his son: "Michael, I want you to write the stories of our existence. I want my great grandchildren to know where they came from." Then, as Michael sat beside his father's bed on the 4th floor at Exeter Hospital, his father recounted stories of his life that had never been told before. If not captured, they would be lost forever. On June 9th, 2015 Harold died, and Michael has been fulfilling his father's request ever since. The Sketches of Lee collection is not just the tale of a family's relocation in the summer of 1957 from Brooklyn, N.Y. to Lee, N.H. Rather, it's a chronicle of family life as the "Index of Integration" for Lee and other New Hampshire towns. This first volume, "A Colored Man in Exeter," recounts some of Harold's experiences in the Exeter, NH area from 1959 until 1975. During this time, he often worked with people who had never spoken to or seen a "colored person" before. He became an ambassador for his race in an era where people were known for their deeds and not their bluster. Sometimes the challenge was overwhelming. But he and Virginia, were equally relentless in disproving the existing stereotypes of the era. They succeeded. Throughout their lives Harold and Virginia taught their children five basic tenets: 1. We are equal and will not stand to be treated any other way. 2. Racists are either ignorant or stupid. Ignorant people can be taught. Stupid people can't, so don't waste your time on them. 3. Any commitment you make is total; there is no excuse for not fulfilling one. 4. Do not spend time doing what everybody else does. Do what's right for you as well as you possibly can. 5. When you are in the right, you do not quit. No one ever successfully countered those positions.

Download or read book A People's History of the United States written by Howard Zinn and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2003-02-04 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its original landmark publication in 1980, A People's History of the United States has been chronicling American history from the bottom up, throwing out the official version of history taught in schools -- with its emphasis on great men in high places -- to focus on the street, the home, and the, workplace. Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of -- and in the words of -- America's women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, the working poor, and immigrant laborers. As historian Howard Zinn shows, many of our country's greatest battles -- the fights for a fair wage, an eight-hour workday, child-labor laws, health and safety standards, universal suffrage, women's rights, racial equality -- were carried out at the grassroots level, against bloody resistance. Covering Christopher Columbus's arrival through President Clinton's first term, A People's History of the United States, which was nominated for the American Book Award in 1981, features insightful analysis of the most important events in our history. Revised, updated, and featuring a new after, word by the author, this special twentieth anniversary edition continues Zinn's important contribution to a complete and balanced understanding of American history.
