Book excerpt: Excerpt from True Stories of Famous Men and Women of America for Young People: Containing Full Accounts of the Lives and Heroic Deeds of About Half a Hundred Illustrious Men and Women Who Have Made Our Country Great and Our Flag Respected Throughout the World It is the province Of these biographies not only to entertain by the narration of wonderful achievements, but to conduct the reader into the private lives and characters of these great men and women, to encourage and inspire, and by the force of example to awaken a spirit of emulation in the young. In these true sto ries of famous men and women we have a complete picture of their public and pri vate records woven skillfully together. The early lives of these illustrious charac ters with their humble environments - aye, Often discomforts, struggles and poverty - will find perfect counterparts in the circumstances and surroundings of many of our young readers. Here the ambitious but hampered youth will find their heroes and heroines have traveled the same roads which they themselves are now treading, and encountered and struggled with the same or similar difficul ties and temptations as those which they are now battling against. There is nothing so potent in its influence for good as the examples of truly great leaders.

Download or read book Famous Men of Ancient Times written by Samuel Griswold Goodrich and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1843 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reader of these pages will perhaps remark, that the length of the following sketches is hardly proportioned to the relative importance of the several subjects, regarded in a merely historical point of view. In explanation of this fact, the author begs leave to say, that, while he intended to present a series of the great beacon lights that shine along the shores of the past, and thus throw a continuous gleam over the dusky sea of ancient history, -he had still other views. His chief aim is moral culture; and the several articles have been abridged or extended, as this controlling purpose might be subserved. It may be proper to make one observation more. If the author has been somewhat more chary of his eulogies upon the great men that figure in the pages of Grecian and Roman story, than is the established custom, he has only to plead in his vindication, that he has viewed them in the same light-weighed them in the same balance-measured them by the same standard, as he should have done the more familiar characters of our own day, making due allowance for the times and circumstances in which they acted. He has stated the results of such a mode of appreciation; yet if the master spirits of antiquity are thus shorn of some portion of their glory, the writer still believes that the interest they excite is not lessened, and that the instruction they afford is not diminished. On the contrary, it seems to him that the study of ancient biography, if it be impartial and discriminating, is one of the most entertaining and useful to which the mind can be applied
