Book excerpt: Excerpt from Book of Words: The Pageant of Newark The stage beyond the narrow river lies dark, enveloped in thin veils of rising mist. A remote sound of Indian drums comes across the water, figures move mysteriously through the gloom, and a fire begins to blaze at the center. As the flames mount higher, the huts of an Indian Village appear and the figures are seen dancing in a swinging circle around the fire, their shadows flickering, enormous and distorted, upon the shifting mist. For a moment the dancing continues, then the fire sinks and a second light appears, this time over the lagoon - a lantern at the mast-head of a ship. As the ship crosses 311 the semi-darkness an English flag is seen at her peak and the hardy mariners of Cabot's crew tread her decks. A second ship, the ship of Verrazano, bearing the flag of France, passes in the opposite direction. Again the fire on the shore brightens. The Indians have ceased their dancing and a hunting party prepares to set out, when into their midst comes a runner warning them of approaching danger. He is followed immediately by the arrows of an attacking tribe. Shouting, the men of the village set themselves stubbornly to defend it. For a moment the picture is one of savage battle. The men of the Village are driven back. From among the huts comes forward a group of frightened women, clinging together and bearing a white peace-belt. As they approach the fire a sudden fear seizes them and they scatter in flight. The attacking party shouts triumphantly and charges forward. Suddenly in place of the women appears a young chief alone, holding aloft a peace-belt. He is received scornfullyby the men of the tribes but the peace-belt is accepted. The women come forward and surround him, for thus it was that the old legend of the Peace Making of the Lenni Lenape was born. As the attacking tribe withdraws, the lights die down and the men of the returning tribe are dimly seen. Now a third ship appears, in likeness to the Half-moon, a Dutch flag at her bow, and from her side a small boat makes the landing. Men from this boat go ashore and the leader seems to speak to the Indians. A quarrel arises between them, and the Indians threaten. The white men retreat to their boat pursued by the red men. They fire their pistols as they row away and their leader falls, pierced by an arrow. The boat returns to the lee of the ship, which proceeds on its way. For a moment the fire flames up again and the dancing shadows mount against the mist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Made in Newark written by Ezra Shales and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-30 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to turn the public library or museum into a civic forum? Made in Newark describes a turbulent industrial city at the dawn of the twentieth century and the ways it inspired the library's outspoken director, John Cotton Dana, to collaborate with industrialists, social workers, educators, and New Women. This is the story of experimental exhibitions in the library and the founding of the Newark Museum Associationùa project in which cultural literacy was intertwined with civics and consumption. Local artisans demonstrated crafts, connecting the cultural institution to the department store, school, and factory, all of which invoked the ideal of municipal patriotism. Today, as cultural institutions reappraise their relevance, Made in Newark explores precedents for contemporary debates over the ways the library and museum engage communities, define heritage in a multicultural era, and add value to the economy.
