Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nebraskans: 1854-1904 When we reflect that in 18 54, Nebraska was a wilderness or prairie and plain, and that 50 years has seen it transformed into a great commonwealth, teeming with life and industry, and counted one of the foremost of the sisterhood of states, it seems fitting and in keeping with the occasion of this, its golden anniversary, to collect together the portraits of the men who have been so closely identified with the production of this glorious result. Here will be found many of the pioneers as well as those who coming later, have added their quota and are entitled to share in the result achieved for this first half century. The task of getting more than one thousand busy men to give time for special sittings for photographs has not been an easy one. And equally difficult has it been to find pictures of many of the old pioneers, who long since have joined the great majority. And while it is hardly possi ble to make a work of this find complete, we feel that it is a fair representation of the foremost men, who have helped to make Nebraska what it is, and without whom, no history of Nebraska could be written. Whatever may be the value or usefulness of this collection to this generation, it will, we feel, be appreciated as almost priceless by those that follow.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Nebraska Methodism, First Half-Century, 1854-1904 State Methodist Historical Society, in 1902, the author was requested to prepare such a history. As correspond ing secretary of the society I had already spent more than a year collecting material and had made a study of this material for a sketch of our history for the J. Sterling Morton History of Nebraska, now being published. I accepted the task with fear and trembling, having even then some conception of its magnitude and a'keen sense of inadequacy, but with a conviction that some one ought at once to perform that service. I have found the undertaking much larger and' the difficulties greater than I anticipated. I can only say that for three years, with much pleasure and profit, I have wrought diligently at the task. That the result is satisfactory to myself, or will be above just criticism by others, I do not claim. But such as it is, I send it forth on its mission, praying that God may use it for good notwithstanding its defects.

This third edition, which has been thoroughly revised and rewritten while preserving the spirit and intelligence of the original, affirms and extends that record. Incorporating the results of thirty years of scholarship and research, the third edition of History of Nebraska gives fuller attention to such topics as the Native American experience in Nebraska and the accomplishments and circumstances of the state’s women and minorities. It also provides a historical analysis of the state’s dramatic changes in the past thirty years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1939, Nebraska: A Guide to the Cornhusker State was collaboratively written by the Federal Writers? Project (FWP). As part of the Works Project Administration, the FWP gathered together some of the best writers of the era. Collectively, they undertook a nationwide initiative to record information about America and create comprehensive guides to their respective states. The wonderful results were a well-written blend of travel guide, ethnography, local history, and cultural document. This guide to the Cornhusker State brought together Nebraska writers such as Weldon Kees, Mari Sandoz, and Loren Eiseley. These respected authors created a remarkable compendium that includes chapters on the state?s history, environment, peoples, flora and fauna, government, agriculture and industry, folklore, architecture, art, and literature. Rewarding reading for the armchair traveler and a companion for the tourist, Nebraska captures an era and makes accessible to readers information that is not readily available outside archives.
