Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old South Work The Old South Leaflets gradually began to attract the atten tion of teachers of history outside of Boston; and ten years ago the publication of a general series was begun, to meet the needs of schools and colleges and literary societies and classes. Every teacher of history from Maine to California now knows, we think, of the Old South Leaflets. They are sold at a price just covering the cost, five cents-a copy, or four dollars for a hundred copies, the aim being to bring them within easy reach of everybody, especially of schools and of those wishing to circulate them in connection with lectures.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bethany: A Story of the Old South IN the effort to show the state of opinion and of feeling in the South immediately prior to the Civil War, it seemed to me that no method could be better than to let the historical characters speak for them selves. Into the mouths of Toombs, Stephens, J ohn ston, and others I have put their real sentiments, though I have seldom used their own words.

Download or read book Honor and Violence in the Old South written by Bertram Wyatt-Brown and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a classic by reviewers and historians, Bertram Wyatt-Brown's Southern Honor now appears in abridged form under the title Honor and Violence in the Old South. Winner of a Phi Alpha Theta Book Award and a Jefferson Davis Memorial Book Award and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in History, this is the first major reinterpretation of Southern life and custom since W.J, Cash's The Mind of the South. It explores the meaning and expression of the ancient code of honor as whites—both slaveholders and non-slaveholders—applied it to their lives. Wyatt-Brown ranges widely—covering topics such as childbearing, marital patterns, duelling, slave discipline, and lynch-law—to discover the role of honor in the psyche of white Southerners.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old South and the New: A Series of Letters This volume is the result of an earnest desire on the part of its author to understand the industrial and social condition of the people of the Southern States. The better to gratify this desire, he revisited in 1887 substantially the field he had traversed in 1867. A few days sufficed to convince him that to chronicle his observations with photographic fidelity, and to report them, with his conclusions therefrom, to his countrymen at large, might prove to be a fitting close to the labors of a long life which has been devoted chiefly to the investigation of social and politico-economic questions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old South: A Monograph I was born in and of the Old South. At six teen, after a year under General Lee, I received my parole at Appomattox, and went home to look upon the ruin of the Old South. Whatever is good or evil in me I owe chiefly to that Old South. Habit, motive, ideal, ambition, passion and prejudice, love and hatred, were formed in it and by it. My life work as a man has been wrought under what is called the New South, but inspiration and aspiration to it came out of the Old South. The spell it cast upon my boyhood is strong upon me after more than a generation has gone. It is not the Spell of enchantment. It has not blinded me to bad or good qualities, and after the lapse of a half century and de spite the tenderness for it that grows with the passing years, I think I can see and judge the Old South and give account of it more impartially than one who received it at second-hand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old South Leaflets The old south leaflets were prepared primarily for circulation among the attendants upon the Old South Lectures for Young People. The subjects of the Leaflets are immediately related to the subjects of the lectures, and they are intended to supplement the lectures and stimulate historical interest and inquiry among the young people. They are made up, for the most part, from original papers of the periods treated in the lectures, in the hope to make the men and the public life of the periods more clear and real. The Old South Lectures for Young People were instituted in the sum mer of 1883, as a means of promoting a more serious and intelligent atten tion to historical studies, especially studies in American history among the young people of Boston. The success of the lectures has been so great as to warrant the hope that such courses may be sustained in many other cities of the country.

His career suggests the significance Of the time, for in his personality are the storm, the lightning and the swift changes Of war. Born in the midst Of the great civil struggle, he reached his most impressionable period in the stern hours Of the Reconstruction, was a college student when the New South called for a new generation, and entered manhood during that wide readjustment, North and South, that has brought forth a nation. He was sensitive in the highest degree, endowed with rare genius for expression, passionately fond Of the tragic and heroic, and drew from his environment the essence Of the Old South both in its glory and its doom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irene Liscomb: A Story of the Old South There was hardly ever a more perfect blonde than this Southern girl, with her graceful, self-poised personality. Her brides outfit was all finished; even the last package of toilet knickknacks had been received from Philadelphia, and duly commented on by her nearest friends. The house party had been assembled for two days already. Games, and the ball, which was yet to occur before the departure of the interesting couple, were enthusiastically discussed. In the grand old mahogany room of the large plantation house, the bridal gown had been spread out on the bed for a last inspection of its rich lace, and silken, vapory fabric. The veil was rose point lace; one her mother had worn. It had been manufactured at Venice. "No, no, I cannot try it on. It is bad luck to try on the wedding dress and remove it before being married in it," asserted the bride-to-be. "Dats right, Mis' Rene.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old South Historical Work IN connection with each of the lectures in the Old South summer course, a historical tract or leaflet is prepared for circulation among the young people. These Old South Leaflets are usually reprints - a dozen or twenty pages in extent of important original documents, often not in easy reach of the ordinary student, related-more or less directly to the special subject of the lec ture for the week. The leaflets are given to all those attending the lectures as they enter the Meeting House, and at the end of the course those who have carefully preserved their leaflets can have them neatly bound for a few cents, giving them a useful little manual upon the gen eral subject of the course. A good idea of the nature of the leaflets may be gathered from the following list of the subjects of those for the present year. The reader is asked to compare the list with that of the corresponding lectures, given above. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lyddy: A Tale of the Old South Officers and men that for four years struggled to tear down the Stars and Stripes, are to-day proudly planting Old Glory over a land oppressed by cruelty. In the words of Commodore Dewey, "There is no South, no North, but one united country." Old lines of differences are for ever obliterated. Descendants of Lee and Grant shouldered arms, and have been standing side by side, doing battle, at the will of the American Government. And in this cause of humanity men that were once bound by the yoke of servitude are taking an active part. Southern negroes have now enjoyed the blessings of freedom for more than thirty years, yet their faithfulness and devotion remain fresh in the minds of former owners; even as the harrowing scenes depicted by Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe continue to attract throngs of men, women, and children to theatres and halls.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uncle Isaac; Or Old Days in the South: A Remembrance of the South One morning toward the summer of 1865, a lady sent her card into the private office of a well-to-do New York gentleman. She was admitted. The gentleman, after courteously receiving her, asked to what he owed the honor of the call. She replied, that she was a Southern lady in some distress, and had called to solicit his assistance. Through the devastation incident upon the war, just closed, she added, she had been left with a plantation, but without seed or implements or mules, or money to purchase these necessary articles of equipment, and with no other possible source of sup port. Could she procure five hundred dollars, she was quite sure that she could make the plantation yield an income sufficient for the maintenance of her family, the payment of the interest, and presently for the liquidation of the debt. She then requested of him the loan of the five hundred dollars. In utter astonishment at her request, he said: Why, madam, I do not know you at all.
