Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Life in America An artist knows instinctively how many details may be obliterated, and his treatment made more direct and convincing thereby. If circumscribed ability has made this picture of American home life more the work of a photographer than an artist, it is only to be hoped that in the interest of truth I have not left too many lines in the face of Uncle Sam.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home School of American History We talk a great deal about our power but we do not realize it; we cannot realize it until we understand what it is which gives us power. We use a great many figures to convey an impression of our acreage and crops; but it is the farmer, the mechanic and the merchant who are the real capital of the country. Their character, energy, intelligence, thrift and practical sagacity constitute our real wealth the wealth which is not subject to the fluctuations of the market or the untimely conditions of the weather. This volume tells the story of material growth as fully and more comprehensively than most books but it tells also the story of America as it is written in the life, character and habits of the American man and woman.

Download or read book Shut Your Mouth written by George Catlin and published by . This book was released on 1869 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Catlin discusses how closing one's mouth during sleep and day to day will foster improvement in mental and physical condition. This edition contains all of the original illustrations the author made. Walking among and studying various Native American tribes in the 19th century, the author noticed that many of the elders possessed a serene and well-preserved appearance. The young members of the tribe seemed especially healthy, with an innate resistance to certain illnesses and congenital conditions. Seeing the tribe's members sleeping, he noted that they all did so with closed mouths. Catlin pondered whether this habit contributed to the physical vigor of the people, and investigated further. After venturing back to the towns of the Midwest, he attests to witnessing how terrible many people who had practiced mouth breathing throughout life appeared, and became deeply opposed to its practice. This book details how children and young people can be encouraged against mouth breathing, and notes how different the facial countenance appears between mouth breathing people and nose breathers. Today, the notion that mouth breathing promotes physical ugliness or decrepitude is wholly disavowed as an eccentric idea with no basis in fact. However, sleep researchers have demonstrated that breathing with the mouth open while asleep can result in more snoring and thus a lower quality of sleep and therefore health. Overall, one could venture that Catlin's ideas possess a certain merit, even if his book is an exaggeration. Although primarily known today as a painter and traveller who became an emissary of sorts to the Plains tribes, George Catlin was also an enthusiastic if occasional writer. He admired the Native American peoples for their traditions and distinctive appearance, and took to painting them - his marked talent led to their respect for his gifts, and they duly welcomed him with friendship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from America at Home I have not discussed the American temperament as demonstrated in present-day literature and art, for the reason that all literary efforts in the United States now seem to me to tend to inculcate the obvious without a hint of the subjective grasp of life which is the only touch to make a work vital and lasting, and because there is as yet no national school of American art.

Download or read book Lights and Shadows of American Life Classic Reprint written by A. C. Dixon and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lights and Shadows of American Life "Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness." Psalm 112:4. The world owes to Christianity all that is meant by motherhood, fatherhood, brotherhood, sisterhood, and wifehood. Canon Farrar says that in all the ancient classics there is no reference to the joys of childhood, and for the very good reason that the childhood of the ancients had little joy in it. The Roman's child was counted among his household goods. In Sparta the child was the property of the state rather than of the parents, and a father had as much right to correct the children of his neighbor as his own. Home life was nothing, and to-day in some languages there is little difference between the meaning of home and house. Wherever the Bible is honored, as in England, the real home exists, but where the Bible is not read, even in so-called Christian countries, as in France, there is little of home life.
