Download or read book The Chambers Family in Philadelphia written by Kathryn Chambers Torpey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This family history documents the life of George and Elizabeth Chambers; their three children, George Washington, William, and Emma; and their seven grandchildren who were the children of George Washington Chambers. The first part of the narrative describes what little is known about the arrival of George and Elizabeth Chambers in America and the early history of the Chambers family in Philadelphia. The second part of the narrative documents what is known about George Washington Chambers' service in the Civil War, his work as a boatman, and his married life. The third part of the narrative profiles the life of each of George Washington Chambers' children - first the girls and then the boys. The purpose of the document is to chronicle the sequence of major events in the life of the Chambers family; to bring the family back to life, albeit only momentarily; and to depict their fundamental character and outlook on life as a working class family living in Philadelphia during the period 1840 to 1940.

Download or read book Memoir of Robert Chambers 1872 with Autobiographic Reminiscences of William Chambers written by William Chambers and published by . This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quiet Peebles childhood and education is disrupted by war and rapid economic change, resulting in 1813 in the move of the Chambers family to Edinburgh and a new life, initially in 'one of the second-rate streets in the southern suburbs'. In this second, 1872, edition of the history of the personal and business life of the publisher Robert Chambers, his brother William adds his own reflections on the story that followed. It is a lively, fascinating slice of social history - stretching from 'an almost ceaseless drudgery' to a 'luxurious and learned leisure'. At its core is the world of 19th century Scottish book - selling and publishing - book auctions, premises on Leith Walk, publishers' agents, trade-sales, remainders, book - stalls in the open air, printers, book-binders and publishers, book-hawkers, poets, essayists and editors, and patronage and finance. It was also an age of 'progressive steps towards a thoroughly cheap yet original and wholesome literature' for education and entertainment; the establishment of W. & R. Chambers; and the influence and legacy of Sir Walter Scott.

Download or read book Whittaker Chambers written by Sam Tanenhaus and published by Modern Library. This book was released on 2011-04-20 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whittaker Chambers is the first biography of this complex and enigmatic figure. Drawing on dozens of interviews and on materials from forty archives in the United States and abroad--including still-classified KGB dossiers--Tanenhaus traces the remarkable journey that led Chambers from a sleepy Long Island village to center stage in America's greatest political trial and then, in his last years, to a unique role as the godfather of post-war conservatism. This biography is rich in startling new information about Chambers's days as New York's "hottest literary Bolshevik"; his years as a Communist agent and then defector, hunted by the KGB; his conversion to Quakerism; his secret sexual turmoil; his turbulent decade at Time magazine, where he rose from the obscurity of the book-review page to transform the magazine into an oracle of apocalyptic anti-Communism. But all this was a prelude to the memorable events that began in August 1948, when Chambers testified against Alger Hiss in the spy case that changed America. Whittaker Chambers goes far beyond all previous accounts of the Hiss case, re-creating its improbably twists and turns, and disentangling the motives that propelled a vivid cast of characters in unpredictable directions. A rare conjunction of exacting scholarship and narrative art, Whittaker Chambers is a vivid tapestry of 20th century history.
