Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Walter Raleigh You have given me permission to put your name in this book, so I owe it to you to explain its purpose. It is a life of Sir Walter Raleigh, told in eleven stories. I have taken the chief scenes in his life, and made some friend or follower write about them as'if he had seen them with his own eyes. I do not know if there was ever a Gervase Luttrell or a Nathan Stubbs, but I know that people just like them lived in Raleigh's day, and saw and heard the things they write about here. So, though I have invented some of the characters, all that they tell us really hap pened, and most of the little incidents and speeches will be found recorded in old books. It is a story, but an ower true story, and you must not think that it' only came out of my head. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Life of Sir Walter Raleigh written by Patrick Fraser Tytler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Sir Walter Raleigh: Founded on Authentic and Original Documents, Some of Them Never Before Published I trust it will not be deemed presumptuous when I express a hope that this Life will be found the most authentic account of Sir Walter Raleigh which has yet been given to the Public. This is said not only with respect, but with gratitude for the labours of my predecessors, Oldys, Birch, Cayley, and latterly Mrs Thomson, whose Appendix of original letters, although undervalued by herself, has assisted me in tracing to its real authors that extraordinary conspiracy against Raleigh, which ultimately brought him to the scaffold. But whilst I acknowledge these obligations, I must add that in none of these works, so far as I can judge, has full justice been done to Raleigh. The mistakes and aspersions of Hume, and other writers, have been suffered (except by Cayley) to pass unnoticed; the secret history of his offences, his trial, and condemnation, has been abandoned as obscure and unintelligible; his famous and fatal Guianian voyage has been misunderstood; and the gross charges against his honour and veracity, have neither been sufficiently examined, nor their falsehood exposed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Sir Walter Raleigh, Vol. 1 of 8: Now First Collected, to Which Are Prefixed the Lives of the Author; The Lives And first for the name of Ralegh, otherwise written Bale and Ralega in some old deeds I have formerly seen it is certainly of great antiquity in this kingdom; since there are some villages and towns in the west, as well as other parts, so called 5, which might at first receive their denomi nation from some, as well as afterwards give it to others, who were natives or possesmrs thereof. And since we are credibly informed, that one of those districts belonged an ciently to noble lords of the same name c, as also that several of them were so called from the very family we are to speak of d, and as the Raleghs of Devonshire will appear to have flourished there before the Conquest; they might be the progenitors of those in other counties; as it is expressly in timated out of the records they were of those in Warwick shire 6. But as we are also told of no less than five knights of this name, at one time difi'erently situated in that western county before mentioned f; and that there were three great families so named also there, contemporary with sir Walter Ralegh's, who bore arms different from those of his paternal coats; we may conclude they were not all of one lineage; and at the same time, that it is owing to the eminency of this great man, that a distinction of the several houses, and his in particular, when all but his were in a manner ex tinct, has been so elaborately endeavoured by the antiquaries and genealogists of his own time.

This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Walter Raleigh and His Time, With Other Papers "Truth is stranger than fiction." A trite remark. We all say it, again and again: but how few of us believe it 1 How few of us, when we read the history of heroical times and heroical men, take the story simply as it stands. On the contrary, we try to explain it away; to prove it all not to have been so very wonderful; to impute accident, circumstance, mean and commonplace motives; to lower every story down to the level of our own littleness, or what we (unjustly to ourselves, and to the God who is near us all) choose to consider our level; to rationalize away all the wonders, till we make them at last impossible, and give up caring to believe them; and prove to our own melancholy satisfaction that Alexander conquered the world with a pin, in his sleep, by accident. And yet in this mood, as in most, there is a sort of left-handed truth involved. These heroes are not so far removed from us, after all. They were men of like passions with ourselves, with the same flesh about them, the same spirit within them, the same world outside, the same devil beneath, the same God above. They and their deeds were not so very wonderful. Every child who is born into the world is just as wonderful; and, for aught we know, might, mutatis mutandis, do just as wonderful deeds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Walter Raleigh, and the Air History: A Personal Recollection At a meeting of a sub-committee of the Committee of Imperial Defence which met in the middle of July, 1918, to consider the question of the official history of the Air Force, Admiral Slade welcomed Sir Walter Raleigh as the prospective author of a history which would be both interesting and unique - unique in the sense that no history of the kind had ever been written before. "Almost too good a chance," was the interjection of Sir Walter. Sir Walter took up the history with enthusiasm. At Oxford throughout the war he had been chafing under the inactivity which was imposed on him by his age. Oxford was empty of men. There was not even a lot of lecturing to do. The Air History gave him just such an opportunity as he loved. It was an adventure, and he looked upon life itself as an adventure.
