Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories and Impressions: 1831-1900 The present volume has not the character of an Autobiography; nor, indeed, could its author plead any of the usual excuses for publishing a Memoir of himself. It is not the life-history of one who has attained to eminence; it is not the record of an eventful career; it contains few, if any, graphic pictures of remarkable scenes or remarkable men. Since I am not one who has kept a diary, some noteworthy incidents have doubtless escaped my recollection; while, on the other hand, I have been under no temptation to insert extracts on matters of slight importance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories and Impressions: A Study in Atmospheres "My Dear Kids - Accept this book, the best Christmas present that I can give you. You will have received before this comes to be printed, or at any rate before - bound, numbered, and presumably indexed - it will have come in book form into your hands - you will have received the amber necklaces and the other things that are the outward and visible sign of the presence of Christmas. But certain other things underlie all the presents that a father makes to his children. Thus there is the spiritual gift of heredity. "It is with some such idea in my head - with the idea, that is to say, of analyzing for your benefit what my heredity had to bestow upon you - that I began this book. That, of course, would be no reason for making it a 'book, ' which is a thing that appeals to many thousands of people, if the appeal can only reach them.

After several years of absence I am in Poland again. The sun sheds upon the snow myriads of sparks, which glisten like so many precious gems a purple strip of mist rises above the distant forest of dark, pointed pines, which form a background to white, humble huts, throbbing with lives of patience and toil, under the iron hand of the ruler. I feel a mysterious glow penetrating into the very depth of my heart, tears rise to my eyes; I humbly bow my head and whisper, Hail, beloved Einsteigen, meine Herrschaften, shouts the metallic voice of the conductor, waking me from my revery, and by his sudden cry in a foreign language brutally recalling to my mind the misfortunes of my country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of by-Gone Days When my husband asked me to write the foreword to this little book I was glad, for no one except the author can feel so great an interest in this as I do. His articles and pictures for the outdoor magazines have been a pleasure to both of us, and it has long been my desire to see them gathered into a volume in permanent form. In Memories of Bygone Days there is no morbid tendency to disparage present joys, but simply a wholesome retrospect. Lulled in the countless chambers of the brain Our thoughts are linked by many a hidden chain. We may make of memory a blessing or a curse, just as we will. It is a stupendous thought that we are augmenting or decreasing future pleasure by the way we spend today. The only use we have for our past is to get a future out of it. All the pleasures of today One by one soon glide away To the golden shore of sweet long ago. Happy is that man whose memories are pleasant and profitable company. Alice kimball steele.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Months I feel inclined to ask the printer to use red ink for the introduction to this volume, as serving to indicate how I blush at my temerity in laying before a too indulgent public a fifth bundle of these desultory notes. Nobody can be more conscious than myself of their ephemeral quality; but the public has itself to blame, if blame there be, because of the encouragement it has shown me to give a more or less permanent form to fleeting impressions, and to prose about matters one cannot but notice in moving through our beautiful land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of Forty Years I have begun these wanderings into a past full of agreeable hours with my impressions of England and the English. My motive has been twofold. First, because my book being published in England it should be of particular interest to English-speaking peoples to read a foreigner's impressions. My second reason is that I have the sincere conviction that nowhere as in England exists such a spirit of all-round good fellow ship and toleration. The second part of my book concerns itself with Germany, my home for many years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Memories Notes of Persons Places written by Sidney Colvin and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories Notes of Persons Places: 1852-1912 Dear, I have dedicated one book to you already, and have been asking myself to whom I should dedicate this, which considering my age and infirmities is as good as bound to be my last. I thought at first of offering it to one or other of those younger friends whose attachment is the pride and comfort of our declining years. But on reflection it came home to me that a dedication to any one of these would in truth only be at one remove a dedication to you. For it is you who have, if not in the first instance brought me all their friendships, as long ago you brought me that of Stevenson, at any rate attached them to the pair of us in far firmer bonds than I could ever have forged by myself alone. And so I conclude that the simplest way is to repeat my former offering and lay this book also, for what it may be worth, directly at your feet. But I shall do so with a difference, inasmuch as, following the old practice of the Epistle Dedicatory, I shall proceed to remind you, and in so doing inform the reader, how the volume has come to be what it is.

But I trust that there is nothing unkind in these more recent memories, any more than in the former. There should not be; for I have experienced little but kindness during a now long life; and I approach the Psalmist's limit of days With only grateful sentiments towards the many friends Who have helped to make that life a happy as well as a varied one.

Download or read book War Memories Classic Reprint written by Frank A. Holden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Memories Here it is - a little book which reflects upon every page the intimate heart-life of the American boy in France, during the World War - what he saw and felt and thought and did, not only in the great crises of battle; but on the march and in the camp - setting forth the first impressions made upon a soldier's mind, under foreign skies, at the cannon 's mouth, and revealing the fact that everywhere and always his thoughts were of the dear ones at home, thousands of miles across the seas. It is like a mirror in its faithful reproduction of the simpler elements which enter into vast and splen did scenes. We have heard much of general move ments; of grand climaxes; of superb exhibitions of man-power, in rthe aggregate; of millions, upon one side, confronting millions upon another; and so vast has been the picture presented to our minds that we have utterly failed to grasp it, except in its out standing characteristics. We have heard too little of the human side of the great wan - too little ofthe things which carry a direct appeal to the deep heart of America. We have been hungry for the minor details - for the smaller threads for the frag mentary episodes and incidents - for the rare and delicate and tender touches of color which are need ed to complete the picture, and to give it beauty, pathos, power and charm. Ever since, in the lone solitudes of the night, we first began to wonder where our boys were, on the other side - if they were still safe - we have longed for such a book; and so far as our personal observa tion extends it is the very first book of this character to appear in print, on either side of the water. The experiences of one soldier are not unlike those of another; and every fond parent who reads this book will feel that his or her boy is writing, though it may be that his spirit now looks down upon them from the unseen halls of the Great Valhalla.
