Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A German-American's Confession of Faith In view of the bitter and ill informed criticism which my stand during the present war has evoked from many Germans and German-Americans, I think it a duty both to myself and to the cause which I represent to bring together at least some of the documents in which my course of action is contained. They consist of articles and other kinds of contributions to various magazines and newspapers between October 1914 and May 1915, dealing successively with the following topics: the moral and spiritual forces of contemporary Germany, the question of American neutrality, the duties of German-Americans both toward the land of their fathers and their adopted country, the mission of America for the peace of Europe. Slight as are these contributions to the literature of the great world conflict that engulfs us, they are at least inspired by the endeavor to be loyal to obligations old and new.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Amerika: A German Reader, American History, Legends and Anecdotes America is the subject of this German reader. Its prepa ration resulted from recent suggestions: the United States Bureau of Education 1 emphasized the importance of the German language for America's economic and scientific de ve10pment; and the editorials of metropolitan newspapers called for new German text-books. It became evident from the latter, that accounts of our own country should pro vide desirable materials for studying the foreign language. The student, beginning to study German, will find here some distinctive advantages. In the American tales appear peoples, customs and atmosphere already more or less familiar to him. The accounts of our life, in the colonial, the frontier and the present times, will appeal to his national feeling. The selections, one and all, have been made to stimulate his interest. Everything should encourage him to concentrate his eflort upon the language. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Traits: From the Point of View of a German The following essays are not scholarly studies, but light sketches drawn in leisure hours by a German who has pitched his tent among the Americans and become interested in the differences between the Americans and the Germans. But my interest in that contrast is not merely a theoretical one: I believe that these two nations can and ought to learn from each other, and that in this case even the protectionists of national civilization ought not to favor a prohibitive tariff on foreign ideals. Such mutual instruction has been hindered by prejudices and misunderstandings: the two nations do not know each other sufficiently, although they are connected by innumerable ties from the past and will need each other's good will still more in the years to come. To root out such prejudices and to facilitate mutual benefit, it becomes a duty to measure critically the culture of the one country by the ideals of the other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The German Emigration to America, Vol. 3: 1709-1740 The great movement Of thousands of Palatines, accom panied by some Swabians and other Germans to England in the spring and summer of 1709, was traced in a most exhaustive and satisfactory manner last year. They had been preceded, it will be'remembered, by a small band under the Rev. Joshua Kocherthal, who, after some delay in England, had reached New York on the last day of 1709. It is our aim to take up the narrative at this point, and, after following the course Of the immigrants to Pennsyl vania, to give some account Of succeeding emigrations, until the year 1740.

This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Influence of German Literature in America It is in the nature of things impossible to draw a sharp boundary line between different phases of literary development. It has been deemed advisable, however, to confine these observa tions to a period including and antedating the first quarter of our century. This is a period upon which the historian looks with somewhat unj ustifiable soreness of heart it is the time of plentiful American reprints of the issues of the English press, with but few original contributions of any value. The mournful complaint of the American author of the time about want of encouragement dins in our ears on turning over the pages of long-forgotten American reviews. It was hard for him to realize, or, when realized, to acquiesce in the fact that it was impossible for him to compete with the accepted classics of English literature and the new developments of the end of the last and beginning of the new century. A literary movement, however, cannot be made to order, and we do well to derive some satisfaction from the fact that the American public, with much trash, read much that was valuable, even though not a native product.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from America and the German Peril Singularly enough, the very earliest relics of the palaeolithic Teuton show that even at that remote period the total submission of one German to another -that other his master - was the recognized order of German affairs.

One group has been found consisting of a Single upright figure surrounded by eight others in a crouching Loyalty and obedience were in the most remote period inculcated by attaching to any breach of either penalties in this world and the next so horrible that it was inconceivable that a simple and credulous people would purchase life by disobedience or desertion.

Carson Brevoort. The New York Historical Society has printed the journal of Krafft, a volunteer and corporal in Donop's regiment and a lieutenant in that of von Bose, who married in New York, became a clerk in the Treasury Department at Washington and died there in 1804. That Society has also printed the Journal of General Rainsford, the British commissary in charge of the German forces sent to this country by Great Britain. General Stryker obtained from the Archives at Marburg and Cassel many important papers freely and well used in his capital history of the Battle of Trenton.
