Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life in America, or the Wigwam and the Cabin The revolutionary war had but a little while been concluded. The British had left the country; but peace did not imply re pose. The community was still in that state of ferment which was natural enough to passions, not yet at rest, which had been brought into exercise and action during the protracted seven years' struggle through which the nation had just passed. The state was overrun by idlers, adventurers, pro i gates, and criminals. Disbanded soldiers, half-starved and reckless, occupied the highways, - outlaws, emerging from their hiding-places, skulked about the settlements with an equal sentiment of hate and fear in their hearts -7patriots were clamouring for justice upon the tories, and sometimes anticipating its course by judgments of their own; while the tories, those against whom the proofs were too strong for de nial or evasion, buckled on their armour for a renewal of the struggle. Such being the condition of the country, it may easily be supposed that life and property lacked many of their necessary securities. Men generally travelled with weapons which were displayed on the smallest provocation; and few who could provide themselves with an escort ventured to travel any distance without one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wigwam and the Cabin First Series The Tales which Mow have been the accumulation of several years. They were mostly written for the annuals, - an expensive form of publication which kept them from the great body of readers. In this form, however, they met with favour, and it is thought that their merits are such as will justify their collection in a compact volume. The material employed will be found to illustrate, in large degree, the border history of the South. I can speak with confidence of the general truthfulness of its treatment The life of the planter, the squatter, the Indian, and the negro - the bold and hardy pioneer, and the vigorous yeomen - these are the subjects. In their delineation, I have mostly drawn from living portraits, and, in frequent instances, from actual scenes and circumstances within the memories of men. More need not be said. I need not apologize for the endeavour to cast over the actual, that atmosphere from the realms of the ideal, which, while it constitutes the very element of fiction, is neither inconsistent with intellectual truthfulness, nor unfriendly to the great policies of human society.

Book excerpt: Praised by critics on both sides of the Atlantic, The Wigwam and the Cabin focuses on the Southern frontier that Simms knew so well, a frontier whose vernacular, courage, humor, folklore, violence, injustice, and beauty are vividly brought to life through the strokes of his pen. "I have seen the life", Simms wrote", -- have lived it -- and much of my material...is the planter, the squatter, the Indian, the negro -- the bold and hardy pioneer, the vigorous yeomen -- these are the subjects". Simms's portrayal of frontier life is the more realistic and graphic in all nineteenth-century American literature; and the Arkansas edition of The Wigwam and the Cabin, with Dr. Guilds's fine editing and informative introduction brings back into print an invaluable contribution to the development of the short story in America.
