Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs of the Prairie The Prairie The City? Oh, yes, the City Is a good enough place for a while, It fawns on the clever and witty, And welcomes the rich with a smile; It lavishes money as water, It boasts of its palace and hall, But the City is only the daughter - The Prairie is mother of all! The City is all artificial, Its life is a fashion-made fraud, Its wisdom, though learned and judicial, Is far from the wisdom of God; Its hope is the hope of ambition, Its lust is the lust to acquire, And the larger it grows, its condition Sinks lower in pestilent mire. The City is cramped and congested, The haunt and the covert of crime; The Prairie is broad, unmolested, It points to the high and sublime; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Winston of the Prairie Classic Reprint written by Harold Bindloss and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winston of the Prairie It was a bitter night, for the frost had bound the prairie in its iron grip, although as yet there was no snow. Rancher Winston stood shivering in a little Canadian settlement in the great lonely land which runs north from the American frontier to Athabasca. There was no blink of starlight in the murky sky, and out of the great waste of grass came a stinging wind that moaned about the frame houses clustering beside the trail that led south over the limited levels to the railroad and civilization. It chilled Winston, and his furs, somewhat tattered, gave him little protection. He strode up and down, glancing expectantly into the darkness, and then across the unpaved street, where the ruts were plowed a foot deep in the prairie sod, towards the warm red glow from the windows of the wooden hotel. He knew that the rest of the outlying farmers and ranchers who had ridden in for their letters were sitting snug about the stove, but it was customary for all who sought shelter there to pay for their share of the six o'clock supper, and the half-dollar Winston had then in his pocket was required for other purposes. He had also retained through all his struggles a measure of his pride, and because of it strode up and down buffeted by the blasts until a beat of horses hoofs came out of the darkness and was followed by a rattle of wheels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Stepdaughter of the Prairie I had no sense of making an allegory out of it. At that age, to the fairy-tale-fed child, the line between allegory and reality is scarcely perceptible, anyway. The Word on the horizon was only a matter of course to me. An older person, had it occurred to me to mention the matter, would perhaps have seen something significant, even worthy of sentimental remark, in 'the child's spelling out life on her far hori zon. But to me, mystery as it was, it was also a matter of fact; there it stood, and that was all. Yet it was also a romance, a sort of nu formulated promise. It was related to the far distant, to the remote in time, to the thing that was some day to be known. So I rested my chin on my little arms and watched.

He was a stout lad of sixteen, with frowzy brown hair, crowned by a brimless straw hat, and his pants looked as if they had been turned inside out and outside in, upside down and down side up, and darned and patched and re-darned and patched again, until time, and labor, and cloth enough, such as it was, had been used to fabricate a number of pairs of pants. As for boots, for his lower extremities werenot wholly destitute of protection, - they might have come down to him as an heir-loom from a pauper of a preceding generation. But What mattered it to him that his clothes were threadbare, many-hued. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Boy Life on the Prairie I ploughed and sowed, bound grain on a station, herded cattle, speared fish, hunted prairie chickens, and killed rattlesnakes quite in the manner here set down, but I have been limited neither by the actualities of my own life, nor those of any other personality. All of the inci dents happened neither to me nor to Rance, but they were the experiences of other boys, and might have been mine. They are all typical of the time and place. In short, I have aimed to depict boy life, not boys; the characterization is incidental. Lincoln and Rance and Milton and Owen are to be taken as types rather than as individuals. The book is as faithful and as accurate as my memory and literary skill can make it. I hope it may prove sufficiently appealing to the men of my generation to enable them to relive with me the Splendid days of the unbroken prairie-lands of northern Iowa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kissimomee Prairie It is perhaps fortunate for America - certainly it is fortunate for the present generation -that the development of the South has been held back so long. Had not the slave system, the Civil war, and the mistakes of reconstruction discouraged immigration, investment and development, the South, with its mild climate. its fertile soils and its abundance and variety of agricultural production, would have been so alluring that the subsequent settlement of the colder North would have been very difficult. But. as it was, the stream of settlement flowed North and West, with the result that that portion of our great republic in which nature is the sternest and the conditions of living the hardest, has become densely settled while the South still has vast areas of unsettled lands, and natural resources that have been little more than touched The prejudice born of habit has been so strong heretofore that half a million American citizens have migrated to Canada within the last fifteen years, and have in many instances paid more for land than they could have acquired good land for in the southern states. But now the times have changed. The South's time has come. The historic routes of migration have been changed and even reversed.
