Download or read book The Beadle Collection of Dime Novels written by Independently Published and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THROUGH the generosity of Dr. Frank P. O'Brien of New York, who has given this collection to the Library, it is possible to place on exhibition about fourteen hundred of those rare little books and magazines which, beginning about the year 1859, were issued in America under the broad and general title of "Dime Novels." These are separate publications from the house of Beadle and Adams, of which Erastus Beadle, the Otsego printer, was the originator and guiding spirit. The remaining 171 items in Dr. O'Brien's gift are examples of those other novels which sprang into existence as a result of the popularity with which the Beadle books were greeted from their first appearance. For lack of space, they are not in the exhibition. The collection, as shown in the Main Exhibition Room, constitutes an absorbingly interesting assemblage of a pioneer literature which has now wholly vanished, but which, for a generation, exercised a profound influence on the country's thought, character, and habits of mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beadle Collection of Dime Novels: Given to the New York Public Library Girty, Mad Anthony, Kenton, and Black Hawk in their pages were incited to find out something more about those characters and their times, and thus were introduced to much of the nation's story and geography. Manliness and womanliness among the readers were cultivated by these little books, not by homilies, but by example. It can be truthfully said that the taste and tone of the life of the generation which grew up with these tales were improved by them. No age limit was set up among Beadle's readers. Lincoln was one of them. When Lincoln sent Henry Ward Beecher to England as a Special Com missi'oner, in an effort to win support for the Union from the English Cabinet, it was Victor, editor of the House of Beadle, whose Address to the English People gave material aid to the President's representative. After Beecher had returned he discussed these things with Victor, and said to him: Your little book and Mrs. Victor's novel [referring to 'maum Guinea'] were a telling series of shots in the right spot. It was Victor, also, who wrote the life of Lincoln included in the Lives of Great Americans series, and who, in his hastily composed memorial preface to that volume, summarized the dead President in a manner not excelled by any other writer of the period. Victor therein said: Few men realized the magnitude of his task - it was too mighty for comprehension; few men were dispassionate enough to judge justly; few were wise enough to judge understandingly. Such was the man who, under the guidance of Erastus Beadle, chose and edited the pioneer literature which, for a generation, molded the thought and ambitions of America's youth. That literature itself has almost disappeared, but its effects on the national life are everywhere still present.
