Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Nebraska (the Tree Planter's State) Hymn to Nebraska Now laud the proud tree planter state, Nebraska, - free, enlightened, great; Her royal place she has in song; The noblest strains to her belong; Her fame is sure. Then sing Nebraska through the years; Extol her stalwart pioneers; The days when, staunch and unafraid, The state's foundations well they laid, To long endure. The land where Coronado trod, And brave Marquette surveyed the sod; Where Red Men long in council sat; Where spread the valleys of the Platte Far 'neath the sun. The land, beside whose borders sweep The big Missouri's waters deep, Whose course erratic, through its sands, From north land on, through many lands, Does seaward run. The foothills of the Rockies lie Afar athwart her western sky: Her rolling prairie, like the sea, Held long in virgin sanctity Her fertile loam. Her wild-life roamed o'er treeless plains, Till came the toiling wagon-trains; And settlers bold, far westward bound, In broad Nebraska's valleys found Their chosen home.

Download or read book Great Valleys and Prairies of Nebraska and the Northwest Classic Reprint written by Charles Dana Wilber and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Valleys and Prairies of Nebraska and the Northwest This volume is intended to answer many questions in regard to that part of our country being and lying west of the Missouri River - but more especially Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado. In preparing this work the writer has endeavored to accomplish two purposes: First, to assure those who have already begun their homes in the region beyond the Missouri River, that its natural resources and attractions are second to none in the Middle and Eastern States; and, second, to convince those especially who are seeking homes and farms, or business and health, of the substantial facts that should determine a good investment. So many contradictory statements from persons of position have, within the last ten years, been published concerning the future industries of the States and Territories west of the Missouri River, it has been deemed by the writer most important to clearly set forth the evidence of the agricultural ability of the country west of the 100th meridian, and to this end considerable space has been devoted. It has so long been the practice of Western writers to describe only such matters as readily occur to superficial observation, viz.: charming scenery, statistics of progress, inventories of products, etc., etc., that the public, well posted in these commonplace catalogues of prosperity expressed in bushels or dollars, have a desire for a deeper knowledge of the physical basis and security of these unerring tokens of prosperity.

Download or read book The Nebraska Question Book Classic Reprint written by Katheryn Laughlin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nebraska Question Book The Nebraska Question Book is published with the belief that it will be of assistance to teachers preparing for examination to get an idea of what the examinations are like by studying previous questions. It is not supposed that the book will be sufficient in itself, or with the aid of textbooks on different subjects, to prepare a teacher to pass examinations creditably. It is recognized that the best way for a teacher to prepare for examinations, and for the work of teaching, is to pursue the required subjects faithfully. In school and college. Most candidates will review the subjects of the examination in standard texts, adding to these as many reference books as they can command. Answers are not given to the Nebraska Question Book; first, because of the magnitude of the undertaking and the consequent size and the price of the book that would be necessary. To contain them all; and, second, because it is thought that it is of more value to the student to work out the answers from his textbooks. If answers were given along with the questions, instructors would not care to have the book used for review purposes. In making out examination questions, Principals, Normal Training Teachers and others will find in this book a rich collection from which they may select their questions. Every question in this book has been made out by the state boards since November, 1905, which was the first year the state had charge of the examinations.

Download or read book Black Mamba Boy written by Nadifa Mohamed and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yemen, 1935. Jama is a "market boy," a half-feral child scavenging with his friends in the dusty streets of a great seaport. For Jama, life is a thrilling carnival, at least when he can fill his belly. When his mother—alternately raging and loving—dies young, she leaves him only an amulet stuffed with one hundred rupees. Jama decides to spend her life's meager savings on a search for his never-seen father; the rumors that travel along clan lines report that he is a driver for the British somewhere in the north. So begins Jama's extraordinary journey of more than a thousand miles north all the way to Egypt, by camel, by truck, by train, but mostly on foot. He slings himself from one perilous city to another, fiercely enjoying life on the road and relying on his vast clan network to shelter him and point the way to his father, who always seems just a day or two out of reach. In his travels, Jama will witness scenes of great humanity and brutality; he will be caught up in the indifferent, grinding machine of war; he will crisscross the Red Sea in search of working papers and a ship. Bursting with life and a rough joyfulness, Black Mamba Boy is debut novelist Nadifa Mohamed's vibrant, moving celebration of her family's own history.

Download or read book My Omaha Obsession written by Miss Cassette and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-11 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Omaha Obsession takes the reader on an idiosyncratic tour through some of Omaha’s neighborhoods, buildings, architecture, and people, celebrating the city’s unusual history. Rather than covering the city’s best-known sites, Miss Cassette is irresistibly drawn to strange little buildings and glorious large homes that don’t exist anymore as well as to stories of Harkert’s Holsum Hamburgers and the Twenties Club. Piecing together the records of buildings and homes and everything interesting that came after, Miss Cassette shares her observations of the property and its significance to Omaha. She scrutinizes land deeds, insurance maps, tax records, and old newspaper articles to uncover a property’s singular story. Through conversations with fellow detectives and history enthusiasts, she guides readers along her path of hunches, personal interests, mishaps, and more. As a longtime resident of Omaha, Miss Cassette is informed by memories of her youth combined with an enduring curiosity about the city’s offbeat relics and remains. Part memoir and part research guide with a healthy dose of colorful wandering, My Omaha Obsession celebrates the historic built environment and searches for the people who shaped early Omaha.
