Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of North Carolina IN the year 1700, when people ocked from all parts of the christian world, to see the solemnity Of the grand jubilee at Rome, my intention at that time being to travel, I accidentally met with a gentleman, who had been abroad, and was very well acquainted with the ways of living in both Indies; of whom having made inquiry concern ing them, he assured me that Carolina was the best country I could go to; and, that there then lay a ship in the Thames in which I might have my passage. I laid hold on this Opportunity, and was not long on board, before we fell down the river and sailed to Cowes; where, having taken in some passengers, we proceeded on our voyage, 'till we sprung a leak, and were forced into the Islands of Scilly. Here we spent about ten days in refitting. In which time we had a great deal of diversion in fishing and shooting on those rocky islands. The inhabitants were very courteous and civil, especially the governor, to whose good company and favor, we were very much obliged.

Download or read book Guide to the Hall of History of North Carolina Classic Reprint written by FRED AN. OLDS and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to the Hall of History of North Carolina The Hall of History of North Carolina was first established by Fred A. Olds, as the director, in the west room of the State Museum, December 15, 1902. The installation, of objects began that day. Mr. Oldsbegan the collection twenty years before. Knowing this fact, Governor Alfred M. Scales in 1885 wrote a letter specially commending this work, saying that he hoped it would bring about the keeping of North Carolina relics in the State and prevent their dispersion in other parts of the country. The State Department of Agriculture provided a room for the historical collection, and the title "Hall of History" was given it by the director. The result of providing such a place was information as to the location of great numbers of objects. Visits were made to about fifty counties in a search for others. In ten years the hall was full, thousands of objects having been gathered, some coming from other States and all having historical value and forming a part of a connected story. Photographs were taken and used in illustrating the history of North Carolina. Special studies were made of the life of the Cherokee and Croatan Indians. Pictures were made of many historic buildings and scenes. Many valuable gifts were made and a generous spirit was shown by owners of relics in giving or lending these or allowing photographs or sketches to be made of them. The Hall of History remained in the Agricultural Building until 1914, when it was moved to its present quarters in the State Administration Building.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Makers of North Carolina History The title of this book sufficiently explains its purpose and its scope. In it I have emphasized, as far as possi ble, the personalities of the men who have made our history rather than the events in which they were con cerned. The latter can be studied in the narrative histories of the State which of necessity must present but little or nothing of the former. Of course I do not mean that the great events in which these men were leaders have been neglected. The child who studies this book will acquire as much knowledge of the general history of the State as the average child in the grades is capable of assimilating. This book has been written under the impression that the children of North Caro lina have more knowledge of the great events of our history than of the great leaders; and under the con viction that knowledge of the latter is equally as important and even more interesting, to children, at least, than the former.

Download or read book Charlotte written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charlotte: North Carolina Charlotte. N. C., the county seat of Mecklenburg, is not the largest town in the United States, and it has not reached that-- point where it cannot grow and show improvement in many lines. But there are so many features of excellence and superiority, that to those who are seeking a home, a place of business for an established enterprise, or a place in which to organize a new industrial undertaking, Charlotte offers unusual opportunities. This city is not a place where a man with no means can make an independent fortune without effort, nor is it a place where capital can make such returns as are offered and never realized in sections more widely advertised. Within the past three years, the growth of Charlotte has kept pace with that of other cities of this section of the United States, and at this time the population is about 50,000. This figure is under the average estimate of those who are in a position to know the facts, but it is the intention of this publication to be ultra-conservative rather than to stretch a single point a hairsbreadth. At the taking of the last United States Census, the population was a little less than 35,000, and since that time the growth has been about the same as for several years before. While the city has grown in point of numbers, her development along business lines has been greater, if possible, and within the past five years the commerce of Charlotte has shown a greater increase than any city in the Southeast.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of North Carolina, Vol. 1: With Maps and IllustrationsIn entering upon his work, the writer avails himself of the opportunity briefly to explain his proposed plan, as in some of its features, it departs from established historical models. A mere chronologically accurate narrative of important public events does not in his view constitute history; though of it, such a narrative properly forms a part. He has supposed that the real history of a State is to be read in the gradual progress of its peo ple in intelligence, refinement, industry, wealth, taste, civilization, &c. The public events that transpire are but the exponents of the condition of the inhabitants, in these and other particulars.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
