Book excerpt: Excerpt from Americanism The American people have short memories. That is but natural. As history is measured, the United States is but a youth, and, as befits normal youth, self-sufficient and self-reliant, we have had little desire or need of dwelling upon the past. America has been busy dreaming and thinking of the morrow, with its duties and opportunities; busy exploring, settling and developing a new continent; engaged in construction rather than reflection. As a nation, we inherited no racial enmities or religious antipathies which made it natural to keep alive the memories of ancient grudges or necessary to appeal to ancient fears in order to maintain our national unity. This was not accidental. "There is a divinity which shapes our ends" and orders the destinies of nations. It was necessary to our establishment as a nation, to the sturdy, healthy development of our institutions that we be free to work out our problems, uninfluenced and unfettered by old prejudices and hatreds. It was necessary that our fathers wholly discard the institutions and practices of European civilization, grown fetid, and model America's government along wholly new and wholesome lines. But now we are developed physically; our frontiers have disappeared. We are developed politically; our institutions are firmly established and our national unity and solidarity tested and proved. America has reached maturity, that age when its future is served better by caution than by daring, and the interests and welfare of its citizens promoted better by holding fast to that which has proved true and enduring than by experimenting with the novel and untried. At various times in our national life there have come testing periods when, standing at the parting of the ways, the people have been called upon to choose between keeping the faith of their fathers and following the call of visionaries and the self-seeking ambitious. America has just passed through such a crisis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book American Problems written by James H. Baker and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Problems: Essays and Addresses The essential problems of America are not commercial, political, military, or territorial; they are ethical, sociological, and educational, - and the solution depends upon agencies independent of government and politics. While evils are many, optimism is the only sane philosophy, and true optimism sees the worst but strives for the best and has faith in the final outcome. To teach a lesson of pessimism would be an untruth and a crime. While it is a duty to recognize evils, it is an equal duty to describe the vision of promise. The real Utopia is not the perfect State, but an unending struggle toward it. In these pages I believe I have not only pointed out the dangers of our country, but have shown the evidence of progress. The underlying character and the final judgment of the people are sound; we are coming to a consciousness of our ideals, and are learning to know the nature and mission of Americanism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Americanism, What It Is This whole conception of life is based upon the significance of the individual; but the latest, if not the prevailing, fashion of thought is, to speak slightingly of the individual, -of his rights, of his capacities, and of his responsibilities. We are at present seeking progress, not through a develop ment of the individual, but through what society as a whole can do for itself; forgetting that society is a purely abstract idea, possessing no inherent power either of initiative or of achievement. Yet it has become almost a reproach to stand for the rights of the individual, who is the only motive power that society possesses.

Download or read book Problems in Pan Americanism Classic Reprint written by Samuel Guy Inman and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems in Pan Americanism There are two Americas - not North and South, but Anglo-Saxon and Latin. If an accident of history had not given them the same names both peoples might have been spared the serious results of ignoring the significance of wide differences in historical inheritance, religion, language, customs and ideals. But the failure of both parties to take into account these differences has been fatal. Future historians will wonder that Americans, North and South, lived together on this Continent so long without understanding each other. Present citizens of this America of ours are themselves beginning to ask this question. This book is an effort to help the North American to answer it. Guidance in the selection of material from such a vast field, has not been the desire for a logical but rather for a psychological presentation of the problem. In the first place, an effort is made to have the reader share in the author's admiration of and belief in the future of the Latin American people. Since it is unfair, however, in drawing up the balance sheet of our friends to have only the credit side presented, the outstanding problems of our Southern neighbors are also given, largely as they themselves have stated them. With these friendly contacts established, history is reviewed to show that in the early days, both in the North and the South, there were warm reciprocal desires for Continental Solidarity, incarnated in Simon Bolivar of the South and Henry Clay of the North. But the Mexican War started a current of suspicion, which the Spanish-American War and the extension of North American control over the Caribbean countries developed into hatred.

The native of the New World may, in dress and appearance, in culture and refinement, pass unnoticed in European society, but no soon er does he open his lips, than his intonation, choice of words, and structure of sentence, betray his foreign birth. The difference is, in reality, very slight, but it is characteristic, and as there is no better key to the habits and temper of a people, than the study of its watchwords and nicknames, its likes and dislikes of terms and phrases, we have endeavored to collect enough of these peculiari ties to furnish an idea of the way we talk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How We Advertised America: The First Telling of the Amazing Story of the Committee on Public Information That Carried the Gospel of Americanism to Every Corner of the Globe These things form our imagination; it is our disposition to think of the war as a great conflict of physical forces in which the best mechanic won, and in which the nation that was strongest in material things, which had the largest accumulation of wealth and the greatest power of concentrating its industrial factors, was the victorious nation. Yet, as I said at the outset, I suspect the future historian will find under all\these physical manifestations their mental cause, and will find that the thing which ultimately brought about the victory Of the Allied forces on the western front was not wholly the strength of the arm Of the soldier, not Wholly the number Of guns of the Allied nations; but it was rather the mental forces that were at work nerving those arms, and producing those guns, and producing in the civil populations and military populations alike of those countries that unconquerable determination that this war should have but one end, a righteous end.

This book was released on 2017-02-05 with total page 846 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Relation to the World Conflict and to the Coming Peace The way in which President Wilson directed America's entrance into the war has had a mighty eiiect on the public opinion of the world. Many of those who are disappointed or pleased say they are surprised. They would not be surprised had they made it their business this last year to understand the policy of their government. In May, 1916, the President made a speech which will be counted among the two or three decisive utterances of American foreign policy. The Sussex pledge had just been extracted from the Ger man government, and on the surface American neutrality seemed assured. The speech was an announcement that American isola tion was ended, and that we were prepared to join a League of Peace. This was the foundation of all that followed, and it was intended to make clear to the world that America would not abandon its tradi tional policy for imperialistic adventure, that if America had to fight it would fight for the peace and order of the world. It was a great portent in human history, but it was overshadowed at the time by the opening of the presidential campaign.
