Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of Highland County and a Supplement to Pendleton and Highland History The original purpose of this volume was to furnish a descriptive and industrial write-up of Highland county. But the author's History of Highland has been out of print for several years. The History of Pendleton is not yet out of print, but he could not realize his intention of converting the remnant of the stock into a revised edition. This Handbook has therefore been made to serve the secondary purpose of bringing the two county histories down to date, particularly with reference to their share in the World War. The present book has not only a value in itself, but it imparts a new value to the Histories of Pendleton and Highland, as published in 1910 and 1911. The chapter on the World War consolidates in some degree the stories or the two counties which relate to that event. But those sections which seemingly relate wholly to Pendleton are of interest to readers in Highland, and vice versa. And even those topics which pertain to the Handbook as simply a Handbook of Highland County, are in very large degree applicable to Pendleton as well. The two counties are sister counties, in geography as well as in population. The additions and corrections to the History of Highland are in large part derived from marginal notes written by John M. Colaw on the pages of his private copy. Important contributions have been received also from Walter P. Campbell, the Rev. M. Ernest Hansel, and Mrs. Helen M. G. Paul, all three now living outside of their native county. Without such help as this the author could have done very little in that line. The roster of Pendleton soldiers in the World War is based upon the record preserved by H. M. Calhoun. His industry and plans in keeping in touch with the men called to the colors, and in preserving a record of the replies to his letters is an unusual display of thoughtfulness, and is highly commendable. In those instances where for one cause or another, there was neglect in acknowledging his inquiries, the fault does not rest with Mr. Calhoun. In Highland there is a similar acknowledgment to G. Lee Chew, who has taken great care to preserve a record for his own county. The author would also extend his thanks to all other persons who have actively aided the present undertaking.

Download or read book Hoosiers and the American Story written by Madison, James H. and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Steven Pressfield brings the battle of Thermopylae to brilliant life.”—Pat Conroy At Thermopylae, a rocky mountain pass in northern Greece, the feared and admired Spartan soldiers stood three hundred strong. Theirs was a suicide mission, to hold the pass against the invading millions of the mighty Persian army. Day after bloody day they withstood the terrible onslaught, buying time for the Greeks to rally their forces. Born into a cult of spiritual courage, physical endurance, and unmatched battle skill, the Spartans would be remembered for the greatest military stand in history—one that would not end until the rocks were awash with blood, leaving only one gravely injured Spartan squire to tell the tale. . . .

Download or read book The Fourfold Gospel written by J. W. McGarvey and published by Deward Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic Harmony of the Gospels by J. W. McGarvey and Philip Y. Pendleton with interspersed comments. Attractively re-typeset, this enduring work is a valuable resource to modern Bible students. "In most commentaries a fifth or sixth of the space is taken up in drawing distinctions between the texts of the four Gospels, while in this work these distinctions are placed before the reader's eye, where he can see them for himself at a glance. Moreover, in other commentaries, which give the text, another sixth or seventh of the work is taken up in reprinting in the notes that portion of the text concerning which the commentator wishes to speak. Our interjected method avoids all this needless repetition, and makes it possible for us to present the comment with the least preliminary verbiage or introductory setting. Time is also saved because the reader does not have to look back and forth from the text at the top to the comment at the bottom of the page. Again, other commentaries lose a large amount of space by using the King James text. Those which preceded the revision waste space correcting the translation and modernizing its English: those published since the revision suffer a similar waste by drawing endless comparisons between the two texts. By choosing the American revision as the basis for our work, we have a text which needs but little explanation or apology, and we are thereby enabled to employ the reader's time and strength to his best advantage." --Excerpted from the Introduction

This book was released on 2010-11-29 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PRINT FORMAT ONLY NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT--OVERSTOCK SALE-- Significantly reduced list price while supplies last Presents fifteen papers from the 2007 Conference of Army Historians. Examines irregular warfare in a wide and diverse range of circumstances and eras. The papers selected for this publication are not only the best of those presented, but they also examine irregular warfare in a wide and diverse range of circumstances and eras. Together, they demonstrate how extremism was intimately connected to this type of warfare and how Americans have, at different times in their history, found themselves acting as insurgents, counterinsurgents, or both. The titles of the papers themselves reflect how often the U.S. Army has engaged in such irregular operations despite a formal focus on conventional warfare. Using imperial British and Italian examples, several presentations also underline how the ease of conquering lands is often no indication of the level of effort required to pacify them and integrate them into a larger whole. Historians, especially military historians, strategic military analysts, and students pursuing introduction to defense history or military science classes may be interested in this volume.
