Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beginnings of Literary Culture in the Ohio Valley: Historical and Biographical Sketches Though not confined strictly to the history of begin aings, this imperfect survey of the cultural elements of early western society is concerned, in the main, with per sons and events belonging to the period closed by the Civil War. As a rule, the biographical parts of the nar rative relate to the dead; but exceptions are made in the case of many noted men and women, yet living, who achieved reputation before the year 1860. Brief mention of numerous living writers will be found, usually in foot notes, in the chapter on Early Periodical Literature, which deals with years quite recent. Doubtless there will be missed from the index names that should have appeared, but no invidious discrimina tion is intended. The contents of this volume, far from exhausting the subjects discussed, are merely suggestive. These gleanings show only specimen sheaves, not a complete harvest. The collector gathered most of his mate rial from the sources nearest at hand, not having had leisure or Opportunity to examine, With equal care, all parts of the wide field indicated by the title of the book. Whatever is wanting to complete it, this contribution to the history of early culture in the Ohio country is offered as a'report of progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "More than twenty years ago, in preparing for publication a series of articles on the libraries of Cincinnati, the writer had occasion to glance through a good many books of western origin, and to examine files of the earliest newspapers and magazines issued in the Central States. This incidental rummage through the alcoves of a dozen dusty libraries led to further investigation, and awakened curiosity to study the intellectual agencies which created the first literary institutions in the Ohio Valley. Various items of information concerning local writers and writings, from print and manuscript, and from the stored memory of persons acquainted with the general subject, furnished a stock of material which seemed worth preserving." An extensive table of contents guides the reader through the material presented in this volume: travelers and annalists, pioneer printing presses, early periodicals, libraries, schools, preachers, political oratory, literary institutions, poets and story-writers, Dr. Daniel Drake, Timothy Flint, Judge James Hall, George Dennison Prentice, Edward Deering Mansfield, William Davis Gallagher, Amelia B. Welby and Alice Cary. A subject, place and fullname index also provides easy access to information. CD2658HB - $19.95
