Book excerpt: Excerpt from Border and Bastille Perhaps this will answer sufficiently the accu sation of parade, for even had we been disposed to indulge in an alarum and flourish of trum pets, the sensation-mongers would have antici pated the absurdity. Besides this, my movements were not in anywise interfered with up to the mo ment of my arrest, when we were miles beyond all Federal pickets. My captors, of course, had never heard of my existence till we met. It is more than probable that the report just referred to did greatly complicate my position when I was actually in confinement but here my person - not my plans - suffered, and here, the real mischief of that very involuntary publicity began and ended.

(George Alfred) Lawrence When, late in last autumn, I determined to start for the Confederate States as soon as necessary preparations could be completed, I had listened, not only to my own curiosity, impelling me at least to see one campaign of a war, the like of which this world has never known, but also to the suggestions of those who thought that I might find materials there for a book that would interest many here in England. My intention, from the first, was to serve as a volunteer-aide in the staff of the army in Virginia, so long as I should find either pen-work or handiwork to do. The South might easily have gained a more efficient recruit; but a more earnest adherent it would have been hard to find. I do not attempt to disguise the fact that my predilections were thoroughly settled long before I left England; indeed, it is the consciousness of a strong partisan spirit at my heart which has made me strive so hard, not only to state facts as accurately as possible, but to abstain from coloring them with involuntary prejudice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taking the Bastille, Vol. 1 Let us add, to complete the poetical reputation of this little city, whose detractors, notwithstanding its royal chateau and its two thousand four hundred inhabitants, obstinately persist in calling it a mere village - let us add, we say, to complete its poetical reputation, that it is situated at two leagues' distance from laferte-milan, where Racine was born, and eight leagues from chateau-thierry, the birthplace of La Fontaine. Let us also state the mother of the author of Britannicus and Athalie was from villers-cotterets. But now we must return to its royal chateau and its two thousand four hundred inhabitants.

Download or read book A History of France written by John Julius Norwich and published by Atlantic Monthly Press. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “engaging, enthusiastic, sympathetic, funny” journey through French history from the New York Times–bestselling author of Absolute Monarchs (The Wall Street Journal). Beginning with Julius Caesar’s conquest of Gaul in the first century BC, this study of French history comprises a cast of legendary characters―Charlemagne, Louis XIV, Napoleon, Joan of Arc, and Marie Antoinette, to name a few―as John Julius Norwich chronicles France’s often violent, always fascinating history. From the French Revolution―after which neither France nor the world would be the same again―to the storming of the Bastille, from the Vichy regime and the Resistance to the end of the Second World War, A History of France is packed with heroes and villains, battles and rebellion—written with both an expert command of detail and a lively appreciation for the subject matter by this “true master of narrative history” (Simon Sebag Montefiore).
Download or read book Rules for Radicals written by Saul Alinsky and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-06-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This country's leading hell-raiser" (The Nation) shares his impassioned counsel to young radicals on how to effect constructive social change and know “the difference between being a realistic radical and being a rhetorical one.” First published in 1971 and written in the midst of radical political developments whose direction Alinsky was one of the first to question, this volume exhibits his style at its best. Like Thomas Paine before him, Alinsky was able to combine, both in his person and his writing, the intensity of political engagement with an absolute insistence on rational political discourse and adherence to the American democratic tradition.
