Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the Old Settlers' Meeting: Held at Catlin, Illinois, Saturday, September 26th, 1885 Ladies and Gentlemen: Two weeks ago, at a meeting held in Catlin, and called by John W. Newlon and myself, it was determined to hold a reunion of old settlers, and to organize an Old Settlers' Association. Between the years 1820 and 1834 this country passed from the control of savage to that of civilized men. One of the principal objects of this contemplated organization is to gather up and preserve whatever we can of the history of this transition, and of the history of later years. Most of the pioneers have passed away, and the history that they alone knew is forever lost. Others are passing away year after year, and soon all will have gone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2004 Minnesota Book Award Winner The Midwestern small town has long held an iconic place in American culture--from the imaginings of Sinclair Lewis's Main Street and Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg, Ohio to Garrison Keillor's Lake Wobegon. But the reality is much more complex, as the small town has been a study in transition from its very inception. In A Place Called Home, editors Richard O. Davies, Joseph A. Amato, and David R. Pichaske offer the first comprehensive examination of the Midwestern small town and its evolving nature from the 1800s to the present. This rich collection, gleaned from the best writings of historians, novelists, social scientists, poets, and journalists, features not only such well-known authors as Sherwood Anderson, Carol Bly, Willa Cather, Hamlin Garland, Langston Hughes, Garrison Keillor, William Kloefkorn, Sinclair Lewis, Susan Allen Toth, and Mark Twain but also many lesser known and exceptionally talented writers. Five chronological sections trace the founding, growth, and decline of the Midwestern town, and introductory comments illuminate its ever-changing face. The result is a wide-ranging collection of writings on the community at the heart of America.
