Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Mississippi Valley The centenary of the Louisiana purchase, now close at hand, about to be commemorated by the St. Louis Exposition, is turning the thoughts of men to the region in which lies the heart of the Union. At the present moment, too, the Mississippi Valley is about to become, so to speak, politically complete. Oklahoma possesses every requisite for statehood and will, so says report, probably with the Indian Territory make application for admission as a State at the next session of Congress. Should the application be granted, the last unorganized fragment of the area of the Mississippi Valley will receive a formal constitution. Such an event marks an epoch. In view of these circumstances, it is hoped that this little book may seem timely and prove useful. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Mississippi Valley: From Its Discovery to the End of Foreign Domination But the story of Gnadenhutten, written in blood that will not out, proves beyond doubt or question that the tepees and hats of every red village in the land might have been turned into Tents of Grace. It is a frightful fact that for every red man slain by by the whites, in the frontier wars, at least three whites were slain by the red. That fact is sufficient to damn the white policy, but it is not all; for because of the policy that was pursued by those who despised Qua ker sentiment, we are even now paying more than ten million dollars a year for the expenses Of the Indian Bureau. Yet the fact remains that the cost of convert ing the Delaware Indians of Gnadenhutten from the red savages, which they had been, to the stump-grub bing farmers, which they became, was less than the waste of any one of hundreds of Indian raids.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History and Geography of the Mississippi Valley, Vol. 1 of 2 A kind of affectionate feeling for the country, where he has enjoyed, and suffered, all that the human heart can be supposed capable of feeling on this side Of the grave, which contains his children, his charities, and all those ties, which call forth aspirations for its well-being, after he shall be in the dust, enlisted his first purpose to commence this work. The general amenity of its aspect, its boundless woods and prairies, its long and devious streams, and its unparalleled advancement in population and improvement, filled his imagination. He had seen the country, in some sense, grow up under his eye. He saw the first steam boat, that descend ed the Mississippi. He had seen much of that transformation, as if Of magic, which has converted the wilderness to fields and orchards. He has wished to transfer to others some of the impressions, which have been wroughton his own mind by witnessing those changes. Such were some of the motives, that impelled him to undertake this work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Valley of the Mississippi "A very lucid and useful hand-book. Its popular language, and exclusion of difficult terminology are decided recommendations. Its success is good evidence of the value of the work." - N. Y. Times. "This appears to be a very successful publication. It has now reached its third edition, which is a revised and enlarged one; and we learn from the title page that eight thousand copies have been published. Various additions have been made to the Hom opathic directions, and the anatomical part of the work has been illustrated with engravings. The work has received the approbation of several of our most eminent practitioners." - Evening Post. "A nicely printed volume, and it appears to be a finished one of its kind. It embraces all possible directions for the treatment of diseases, with elaborate descriptions of symptoms, and an abridged Materia Medica." - Boston Post. "It is very comprehensive and very explicit." - N. Y. Evangelist. "Though not at present exclusively confined to the medical profession, we have been consulted, during the past year, in some fifty or sixty cases, some of which, according to the opinion of the far-sighted and sagacious, were very bad and about to die, and would die if trusted to Hom opathy, and some were hopeless, which are now a wonder unto many in the change which the hom opathic treatment alone effected. Wow what of all this? Why, just this, we have used Dr. Pulte's book for our Directory; we have tested it as a safe counselor; - and we say to our friends who have wished we would get up a book for them, just get Pulte's Domestic Physician and the remedies, and set up for yourselves." - Cattaraugus Chronicle. "I have recommended it to my patients as being - for conciseness, precision, and practical utility - unsurpassed either in my native or adopted country." - Dr. Granger of St. Louis. "The plan and execution of Pulte's Hom opathic Domestic Physician, render it in my opinion the best work of its kind extant for popular use. "I have found, upon careful perusal, 'The Domestic Physician, ' by Dr. Pulte, to be concise and comprehensive in its description of diseases, and accurate in the application of remedies; but its chief advantage over other works of the same design, appears to me, to be the facility with which it is understood by the lay practitioner. I consider it a valuable and useful book of reference in domestic practice. The professional ability and extensive practical experience of the author, are alone sufficient recommendation for its value.

Download or read book The Mississippi Valley in the Civil War Classic Reprint written by John Fiske and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mississippi Valley, in the Civil War After an interval of some years there was a re newed call for these lectures, and in the autumn of 1895 they were given in Sanders Theatre at Har vard University. The interest thus freshly aroused led me to prepare the present volume. It contains a great deal of material that I never put into the lectures, some of it written before 1886, some of it after. The ninth chapter, on the crowning mercy of Nashville, has been added quite lately. The present volume does not belong to the series in which I have for several years been dealing with the history of the United States. Should I ever, in the course of that work, arrive at the Civil War, it will of course be treated on a very different plan from that of this book, which is a purely military narrative, restricted in its scope, and detached from the multitude of incidents which in a general history would form its context.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mississippi Valley Historical Review, Vol. 9: June, 1922, to March, 1923 It is one of the minor compensations of the great war that it enriched our vocabulary by giving us new words and giving new meaning to Old ones. The word camouflage, for example, almost unknown before the war, has filled a long felt want. The word propaganda is not a new word. The war did not change its meaning but gave it more meaning than it ever had before. Propaganda may be defined as ex parte argument in support of a cause, whether the cause be in the interest of an individual or a family, of a social or a commercial group, of a religious or a political party, of a nation or a. Group of nations. Propaganda is not necessarily dishonest but it is necessarily one sided and is almost certain to be strongly prejudiced. It is perhaps worth while to review our American history for the purpose of inquir ing to what extent propaganda may have been used asua source and may have become a part of it, as it is written.

To the banking provision. A framework similar to that of other states was readily agreed upon. Much comfort-was found in the decisions, often quoted, of.the Iowa, Missouri, and New York conventions. Only here and there did novelties. Creep in. Judiciary and suffrage represented problems on which all the new constitutions had to take stand; homestead exemption and married women's property rights reflected the radicalism that was in the saddle.
