Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Republic County, Kansas A single county in the great state of Kansas occupies but an insignificant place on the map of the world, and its people and its story are comparatively unknown. Yet the grand river of national history is formed by the union of many rills of traditions and record, flowing from a thousand counties and states all over the land. The tracing of one of these rills to its source is the province of the present little volume. It is the aim of this work to collect and preserve some of the facts of the early settlement, subsequent growth and development of one of the leading counties of a young, yet great and glorious state. The families who were early on the ground, and whose members have contributed to make the county what it is, are worthy of remembrance; and their difficulties and sorrows, labors and patriotism, should not be allowed to fall into oblivion. By a knowledge of these, the present generation will be instructed, and the future will be guided. All history, if properly written, is profitable; and there is not a country, or a city, or a hamlet, on the globe, whose history might not be more or less valuable to posterity. We trust this little volume will be the means of preserving from the empire of decay Si host of incidents, of recollections and of anecdotes relating to the land of pioneers and first settlers of the county, which, in the estimation of the historian and student of history, are of priceless value, but which otherwise would soon fade from the memories of the living. Still, a perfect and complete history of any county is one of the impossibilities, and this work may be incomplete in many particulars. Nor, indeed, is it possible for it to be otherwise, as it is not permitted any man to attain perfection. Its regions lie beyond our reach.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Meade County, Kansas Being deserted by the farmer, the country was natur ally given over to the cattle-men, who for years held full sway, and gathered immense wealth from their herds.

Download or read book History of Leavenworth County Kansas Classic Reprint written by Jesse A. Hall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Leavenworth County, Kansas History is but a record of the happenings of human events, the per sonal element ever being present, and the history of a community or county is merely a record of those Who have contributed to its upbuild ing and advancement. Each step in the development 'of the above men tioned institutions; each incident caonnected with the passing of the original inhabitants of the territory of which our country is now com posed as well. As the coming of the pioneers - our forefathers - is history today. Centered about every pioneer family; about the rude log cabin, long since deserted and fallen to decay; about the old landmarks that live now only in our memory; about the farms, and about the grave marked by some weather worn piece, there is a story worth the telling; a story that would interest someone. Unfortunately the authors' have been compelled to eliminate much that they would like to tell owing to want of space. Having finished our undertaking of writing a history of Leavenworth County, though not to our satisfaction, we look back upon our labor as one of love and pleasure. While the task has been a tedious one, yet we feel a bit of satisfaction in our belief that we have written a story of our county in Leavenworth County language; that it is not so much written as spoken and in a way that we feel the average citizen can read and understand. We claim for this work no literary merit, neither dowe claim absolute correctness. Errors have doubless occurred by rea son of transcribing, typesetting and proof reading. Again much of this history as it is written herein has been handed down by word of mouth, and realizing as we do the frailty of human memory, we have attempted to arrive at the truth as best we could. Thoughout this work we have tried to tell the story of Leavenworth County and its people simply and plainly with the hope that we might be able to present a substantially authentic history of our county and its people to which the present and future generations may refer with con fidence and satisfaction as the years come and go, that it may be a per manent record for all time, and incidentally to inspire, by the sweep of the story, a love for our county and our cities and an intelligent solicitude for their destiny.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Kansas The attempt has been made, in preparing this volume, to give, within a convenient compass, the most interesting and material occurrences and events in the history of the rise of a great Free State from a wilderness. Harrowing details and discreditable happenings have been purposely omitted. The story has been told as a record of courage and steadfastness, and increasing devotion to the principles of human freedom and national union. Events have been arranged, as nearly as possible, in the order of the years, with an occasional arrangement of the years in periods or groups, with no further classification or subdivision. No attempt has been made to "write down" to the supposed intellectual capacity of children. Students old enough to enter upon the study of the history of an American State, it is believed, will find all the statements and conclusions comprehensible.

This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Labette County, Kansas, From the First Settlement to the Close of 1892 To those who know me, and who are at all familiar with my business, I hardly need to say that my labor on this volume has been principally performed at such times as most people take either for sleep or rest. It goes to the printer as first written or dictated, and therefore, almost of necessity, will in many respects present an unfinished appearance. For the sake of a more accurate statement of facts, as well as for the pur pose of presenting a work with more literary merits, I should have been glad, could I have taken the time, to have rewritten the entire volume; but as I have not the time to devote to that purpose, I send it forth in its original garb. Herodotus, in the opening sentence of his immortal history, says that the object of its production was to preserve from oblivion the memory of former incidents. I have tried to have a no less worthy object in writing the following pages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
