Download or read book Meredith Nicholson written by Ralph D. Gray and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2007 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meredith Nicholson stands as the most Hoosier of all Indiana writers, serving as an outspoken advocate for his state. Indiana literary historian Arthur S. Shumaker called Nicholson the “most rabid” of Indiana’s major authors. In addition to writing such national best-sellers as Zelda Dameron and The House of a Thousand Candles, his best-known work, Nicholson won praise as an insightful essayist, with his work published in such national magazines as the Saturday Evening Post and Atlantic Monthly. "His inherent belief in democracy and democratic values, and his unapologetic patriotism permeate his essays," notes Gray, "some of which excoriated the Ku Klux Klan and upheld the rights and virtues of women, attitudes not always popular at the time."

Download or read book ZELDA DAMERON BY MEREDITH NICHOLSON written by MEREDITH NICHOLSON and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ZELDA DAMERON BY MEREDITH NICHOLSON The Adventures of Zelda Dameron: Illustrated, by Meredith Nicholson. The struggle of a daughter to be loyal to an ignoble parent forms the basis of this novel. The author spoils an otherwise fine heroine by making her too eccentric and too rude. A note common to many books is apparent; the attitude toward lying seems to be that it is good or evil according to motive or end. In Ezra Dameron, pious miser, and Rodney Merriam, gentleman, the character-drawing is quite strong and clear. ZELDA DAMERON BY MEREDITH NICHOLSON

Download or read book BEST LAID SCHEMES written by MEREDITH NICHOLSON and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 1922-01-01 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Susan Parker was twenty-six and nothing had ever happened. To speak more accurately, plenty of things had happened, but Man had never happened. As a college girl and afterward, Susie had, to be sure, known many men; but they had all passed by on the other side. A young man of literary ambitions had once directed a sonnet at Susie, but she was not without critical judgment and she knew it for a weak effort. This young man afterward became the sporting editor of a great newspaper, and but for Susie’s fastidiousness in the matter of sonnets she might have shared his prosperity and fame. A professor of theology had once sent her a sermon on the strength of a chance meeting at a tea; but this, though encouraging, was hardly what might be called a thrilling incident. Still, the young professor had later been called to an important church, and a little more enthusiasm for sermons on Susie’s part might have changed the current of her life.
Download or read book THE WAR OF THE CAROLINAS written by MEREDITH NICHOLSON and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2023-06-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a daisy-meadow, that flowed brimming to the stone wall at the roadside, and on the wooded crest beyond a lamp twinkled in a house round which stole softly the unhurried, eddyless dusk. You stood at the gate, your arms folded on the top bar, your face uplifted, watching the stars and the young moon of June. I was not so old but that I marked your gown of white, your dark head, your eyes like the blue of mid-ocean sea-water in the shadow of marching billows. As my step sounded you looked up startled, a little disdainful, maybe; then you smiled gravely; but a certain dejection of attitude, a sweet wistfulness of lips and eyes, arrested and touched me; and I stole on guiltily, for who was I to intrude upon a picture so perfect, to which moon and stars were glad contributors? As I reached the crown of the road, where it dipped down to a brook that whispered your name, I paused and looked back, and you waved your hand as though dismissing me to the noisy world of men.
