Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1850, this new version has been edited and formatted to be easy to read for a whole new audience. From the preface: "In presenting the "Camp-Fires of the Revolution" to the public, a few remarks may be necessary, or, at least, will not be mal a propos. The "battles, sieges, fortunes," of the war in which American Independence was secured, may be found detailed in history, with all possible accuracy, and elaborate criticism. But the sufferings of the ill-furnished soldiers during the long and dreary winters of that period, and their means of whiling away the time when forced to gather around the camp-fire and watch when they had not the conveniences for sleeping, are not to be found on the dignified page of history. Yet are they worthy of being noted; and, by the aid of the few remaining heroes of that terrible struggle, when "Saxon met Saxon,"- those few remaining links which chain us to the past, we may imagine the extent of their suffering, and the means they made use of to draw their attention from its severity. It is thought, a work upon the plan of the " Camp-Fires of the Revolution," will bring the doings and the scenes of the " trying time" more vividly before the mind than the common history. Here we have the incidents of various battles, and the exploits of chieftains, told as if by eye-witnesses, and in the familiar, easily comprehended language of the farmer and mechanic soldiers of the American army. No later achievements of a more dazzling character should withdraw the admiration and the gratitude of the American people from those iron-nerved patriots who, destitute of most of the requisites of an army, conquered only because they were determined to conquer. Their history affords the brightest examples for the imitation of those who would be truly brave and patriotic."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Camp-Fires of the Revolution: Or the War of Independence Far different was the scene on the plains. There, throughout the night, the whole park of artillery superintended by Washington in person, played upon the city of Boston, illuminating the sky with arches of fire, and dimming the pale light of the moon. Strange and bewildering was the Spectacle to many of the colonists; for even after an actual warfare of many months, they could not comprehend how brethren of the same race could embrue their hands in each other's blood. Yet the object of Washington was less to annoy the enemy, than to conceal the operations at Dorchester Heights. He succeeded; and on the following day, the British troops beheld, with admiration and astonishment, a series of breast works, which, looming through the morning mist, seemed, in their distorted proportions, to be the work of giants.

Book excerpt: While we all know that large-scale industrialization began in the eighteenth century, the Industrial Revolution truly began in Germany with Johannes Gutenberg and his printing press. His innovation made it possible to mass-produce books, which spread literacy and knowledge all across Europe. It was in the eighteenth century, however, that manual labor started being replaced by what we today know as machines. First in Europe came Thomas Newcomen and James Watt and the steam engine. Then came John Kay and his flying shuttle, which led to the development of the textile industry. Then, in the United States, there was Robert Fulton and his steamboat, and Eli Whitney and his cotton gin. Finally, it was Henry Ford whose mass-produced vehicles made cars affordable to all. The Industrial Revolution continues to this day as formerly less developed countries, especially in Asia, have taken to rapid industrialization to improve their economy. Lexile Reading Level 800L.
