Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Glory: And Other War Poems A loan for liberty, like love, repays Both borrower and lender wealth untold; And bread on waters cast, in future days Returns the righteous giver many fold; Thus we have come, to face a common foe And pay you, Lafayette and Rochambeau. We borrowed you against a time of need; And in behalf of liberty you came, Inspiring us by your heroic deed, Your only recompense undying fame; Now France needs bread, shall we return a stone? No, God forbid! Instead we pay our loan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Old Glory written by Robert Hedin and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This anthology encompasses the entire tradition of American war poetry, from our nation's birth in the Revolutionary War to the present-day War on Terrorism. Some of the most memorable and enduring poems in our literature have been written about war, and many of our major poets are represented in these pages. From "Paul Revere's Ride" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow to Quincy Troupe's "Transcircularities," this gathering of nearly two hundred poems establishes the standard for the genre while providing a historical record." "Narratives, meditations, elegies, lamentations, odes, tributes, and battle hymns - all deeply felt - reflect love of country, sacrifice, tragedy, glory, and sometimes disillusionment and dissent. This is poetry that establishes and preserves our national continuity, a poetry that remembers and gives voice to those who have fallen silent."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book Because of You Old Glory Flies written by Julie Dueker and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of You Old Glory Flies is a collection of heartfelt poems and illustrations to say thank you to all who have served, or currently serve in the United States military. In creating this book, Julie Dueker and Ray “Bubba” Sorensen II, a.k.a. The Freedom Rock Painter, have combined their unique talents and passions for God and country to show America’s heroes we are forever in their debt. They pray this book touches the hearts and lives of those who open it and share it. “I’m impressed with Julie’s work to capture the essence of hero. There are heroes all around us and some we would never know served in our nation’s military to defend the rights and privileges that we hold dear. We can never repay them enough for all that they and their families have given to the rest of us. Many are in cemeteries across our land and overseas. Some didn’t return at all. Others live quietly in our communities continuing to give of themselves for the good of others. America’s greatness lies on the backs of our veterans and those who serve today. They have fought and died for us. I believe Julie’s works depict that very well.” –Colonel Robert C. King (Ret)
Download or read book The Name of Old Glory written by James Whitcomb Riley and published by Fredonia Books (NL). This book was released on 2002-12-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Name of Old Glory: Poems of Patriotism is a collection of 20 patriotic works by James Whitcomb Riley which were written between 1890 and 1913. The cover is by artist Howard Chandler Christy, well-known for his patriotic World War I paintings and posters. Booth Tarkington, the Indiana novelist, has written an introductory "appreciation of the poet." "James Whitcomb Riley is the American people's poet. ... America has produced poets who could have been English poets, or, translated, French poets, or German; but Mr. Riley was never anything except American; translation into other tongues leaves him still purely American. Translation could not make one of his patriotic poems into a tribute to an emperor or a king. For what he loved above all else, throughout his life, was the American people; and he saw the great common soul of that people in the symbol of the Republic - Old Glory!" - Booth Tarkington

Download or read book As If It Were Glory written by Michael E. Stevens and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2007-08-10 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this powerful and moving memoir, Robert Beecham tells of his Civil War experiences, both as an enlisted man in the fabled Iron Brigade of the Army of the Potomac and as an officer commanding a newly raised African-American unit. Written in 1902, Beecham recounts his war experiences with a keen eye toward the daily life of the soldier, the suffering and brutality of war, and the remarkable acts of valor, by soldiers both black and white, that punctuated the grind of long campaigns. As If It Were Glory is an unforgettable account of the Civil War, unclouded by sentimentality and insistent that the nation remain true to the cause for which it fought. Beecham's war was a long one--he served from May 1861 through the completion of the war in the spring of 1865. With the Iron Brigade he saw action at such momentous battles as Chancellorsville and then at Gettysburg, where he was taken prisoner. Returned to service in a prison exchange, Beecham was promoted to first lieutenant of the 23rd United States Colored Troops whom he lead in fierce fighting at the Battle of the Crater. At the Crater, Beecham was wounded, again captured, and, after eight months in a Confederate prison, escaped to find his way to Annapolis just before the conclusion of the war. In his narrative, Beecham celebrates the ingenuity of the enlisted man at the expense of officers who are often arrogant or incompetent. He also chides the altered recollections of fellow veterans who remember only triumphs and forgot defeats. In one of the most powerful parts of his memoir, Beecham pays tribute to the valor of the African Americans who fought under his command and insists that they were "the bravest and best soldiers that ever lived."
