Book Synopsis The Romance of Conquest, the Story of American Expansion, Through Arms and Diplomacy (Classic Reprint) by : William Elliot Griffis

This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Conquest, the Story of American Expansion, Through Arms and Diplomacy When the "Free Quakers" of Philadelphia inscribed on their new meeting-house "Erected in the year of our Lord, 1783, of the Empire 8," they were not "Jingos" or "imperialists," but believers in God and in the growth of the United States of America. Among these Friends, who had drawn sword for their country, were my ancestors and kinsmen. It is not wonderful that their descendant inherits also their view. To-day there are those who read the words "empire" and "expansion" in the same light. They see in the events of the pivotal year of 1898 the Divine hand, and they hear in the new developments fresh calls to duty. On history is based surest prophecy. Those who are most familiar with the story of our country will be best fitted to comprehend intelligently the part they are called upon to play in the future. With emphasis upon the original meaning of the word "conquest," I have in this volume told the story of our national expansion and of the triumphs of American arms and diplomacy from July 4, 1776, when we began to be a corporate nation or empire, until this first year of Greater America.

In using the historic events of a heroic time as a background, and the sentiments of a heroic people as a set ting for my story, I have endeavored to make all my historical references accurate. Beyond that I have attempted nothing of the histo rian's task. I make no pretence of right to invade the domain of that superb scholarship which is just now writing our country's won der-story anew and more worthily than has ever been done before. Patriotism, and an unflinching sense of hon or - love and heroic devotion - these alone are my themes. If I have succeeded in any wor thy degree in illustrating these high virtues and in reflecting the spirit and sentiment of the people among Whom this story is laid, I have accomplished all that I set out to do.

This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Texas, or the Broken Link in the Chain of Family Honors: A Romance of the Civil War In presenting a romance under the theme, The Broken Link, with scenes laid under the cloud of the civil strife, I feel it necessary to make a brief explanation. Though the story is largely fictional, yet it contains facts as well. The Civil War has been relegated to the past sufficiently to soften the bitterness which actuated the strife, and to calm the elements which raged during the four years of storm. In this atmosphere we are enabled to look back to it through another spectrum - that of the vari-colored Romance. There is never a history without its romance But while history is manipulating the annals of nations, the quiet affairs of the individual are generally over shadowed. It is in the calm of the aftermath that the spirit of romance rises like an echo, and enjoys its season of recognition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dealer in Empire a Romance Spain was the proudest of kingdoms and America a wild field for the first-comer to sow as he would. Spaniards were the pioneers in America, but bent rather on reaping than on sowing, for it is the Spanish way to say mana na while snatching at the treasure of to-day. The English settler who came after the Span iard made little talk of to-morrow, but plowed his rocky acres with an eye fixed ahead down the centuries. That is one reason why this book is written for Americans to read, not in Spanish, but in English. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Romance of Steel by : Herbert N. Casson
Download or read book The Romance of Steel written by Herbert N. Casson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Steel: The Story of a Thousand Millionaires This book is the first popular history of our greatest American industry. The wonderful story of steel is here told in such a way that those who have no technical knowledge of steel making may enjoy and appreciate the miracles that have been accomplished. First, it is a story of the electric expansion of a business from bankruptcy to billions. It is an American story of self help - of the unprivileged men who climbed from poverty to the commercial supremacy of the world. And also it is a biography of that most useful of all metals - the structural metal of modern civilisation. Now that the iron and steel business has passed into the hands of more than sixty thousand stockholders, there has come a demand for a popular book on the subject, which shall be not only picturesque, but accurate and instructive as well. Therefore, while I have written these pages after the manner of fiction, the facts have been gathered from the highest author ities. Fully nine-tenths of the material has been obtained at first hand, either from the Steel Kings themselves or from original documents. The book is, in fact, the result of a two years' study of the American iron and steel business, made on the spot, and with the assistance of many experts.

Book Synopsis Butcher's Crossing by : John Williams
Download or read book Butcher's Crossing written by John Williams and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a major motion picture starring Nicolas Cage and directed by Gabe Polsky. In his National Book Award–winning novel Augustus, John Williams uncovered the secrets of ancient Rome. With Butcher’s Crossing, his fiercely intelligent, beautifully written western, Williams dismantles the myths of modern America. It is the 1870s, and Will Andrews, fired up by Emerson to seek “an original relation to nature,” drops out of Harvard and heads west. He washes up in Butcher’s Crossing, a small Kansas town on the outskirts of nowhere. Butcher’s Crossing is full of restless men looking for ways to make money and ways to waste it. Before long Andrews strikes up a friendship with one of them, a man who regales Andrews with tales of immense herds of buffalo, ready for the taking, hidden away in a beautiful valley deep in the Colorado Rockies. He convinces Andrews to join in an expedition to track the animals down. The journey out is grueling, but at the end is a place of paradisal richness. Once there, however, the three men abandon themselves to an orgy of slaughter, so caught up in killing buffalo that they lose all sense of time. Winter soon overtakes them: they are snowed in. Next spring, half-insane with cabin fever, cold, and hunger, they stagger back to Butcher’s Crossing to find a world as irremediably changed as they have been.
