To the merit of novelty, whether of facts or arguments, he can prefer but a very trifling claim. To compress scattered and curious information, and, if possible, to amuse, have been the primary ob jects of the author. If he shall in any degree have succeeded in this latter object, the thanks of the reader are mainly, if not entirely, due to those harvest-lords in the field of old historical literature, whose learned and diligent researches have left but little to be gleaned by those who follow in their footsteps. The obligations under which the author lies to the labours of Mr. Sharon Turner, Dr. Lingard, Miss Halsted, Sir N. Harris Nicolas, Sir Henry Ellis, Mr. Bruce, and Mr. John G. Nichols, he would indeed be ungrateful if he omitted to acknowledge. To Mr. T. Dufi'us Hardy and Mr. James Gairdner, he takes this opportunity of expressing his thanks, as well for the courtesy which he personally experienced from them, as for the valuable assistance which he has derived from their literary publications. To such other persons who have kindly responded to his inquiries, or who have in any way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of King Richard the Third of England King richard the third, known com mouly in history as Richard the Usurper, was perhaps as bad a man as the principle of hered itary sovereignty ever raised to the throne, or perhaps it should rather be said, as the principle of hereditary sovereignty ever made. There is no evidence that his natural disposition was marked with any peculiar depravity. He was made reckless, unscrupulous, and cruel by the influences which surrounded him, and the cir cumstances in which he lived, and by being habituated to believe, from his earliest child hood, that the family to which he belonged were born to live in luxury and splendor, and to reign, while the millions that formed the great mass of the community were created only to toil and to obey. The manner in which the principles of pride, ambition, and desperate love of power, which were instilled into his mind in his earliest years, brought forth in the end their.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard the Third: A Poem In my road to Weymouth, where his Majesty George III. Was residing, whom I wished to see there in his simple privacy, and more like his real self, as the individual king divested of his state, and of the needful appendages of his royal station, I reached Abbey Cerne, and finding some ruins of the ancient monastery there, I amused myself with examining them, and determined to pass the night at the little comfortable village inn at that place. As I was taking my tea alone in its retired room, the crimes and violences of our earlier history, and the characters of our kings during the feudal period, became the subject of my solitary medita tions; and in musing over these, the popular history of our Richard III. Strongly arrested my attention. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Richard III Vol 1 of 2 written by Caroline A. Halsted and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard III, Vol. 1 of 2: As Duke of Gloucester and King of England It has long been acknowledged, that the aera of King Richard the Third comprehends the darkest, the most complex, and the worst authenticated portion of the English annals. The general historian, whose course through the middle ages is guided by a long series of trustworthy chroniclers, finds himself when near the close of that important period forsaken by the great body of his authorities, and those who remain are swayed by the violent prejudices and strong antipathies which are natural amongst a people who have long been a prey to civil discord. Shrinking from such corrupt and uncertain authority, history becomes silent; she resigns the doubtful and the mysterious to the poet, whose imagination weaves out of such materials the dark and terrible tragedies by which he seeks to awe and to instruct. Thus it has been with the period of Richard the Third. The historian relates comparatively little, the poet is full to overflowing.
