Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Putnam's Monthly and the Critic, Vol. 1: A Magazine of Literature, Art and Life; October, 1906-March, 1907 The rest survives only in this dusty crypt of darkened forms and faces, this set of the bound files of the old putnam's. One may, and perhaps even must, agree with the rhymer that his design was a mistake, and that the subject ought to be continued in prose, without on that account being willing to let the verse altogether die. It stands to reason that young Lowell could not have written two thousand lines or so of verse without falling upon felicities worthy of preservation, however mis taken the design may have been or, for that matter, however irrelevant and obscuring the very beauties may have been to the design. The thing is worth rescue and reprint, and I com mend it to you. As to the random felicities, take this one for an example.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ...At first glance, one would think this was a cover design of Country Life in America, but a soberer second glance would show that it was merely a burlesque of the cover of that magazine. The letter-press (in fact, I believe, the whole thing) was got up by Mr. VVallace Irwin, and it shows that he is a very clever parodist. Other magazines and weeklies were represented by facsimiles of their letter-press and general style. There were the Ladies' Home jungle, the Rebuke of Rebukes, Country Life in Africa, etc. Each guest was presented with a portfolio containing copies of these "advance sheets," which formed a most interesting and valuable souvenir of the occasion. If all souvenirs were as interesting and original as this, they would be much more worth while than they usually are, but as a rule people do not spend as much time and trouble and money on them as were spent in getting up these "Advance Sheets from Africa." J8 President Taft is said to be opposed to wealthy diplomats. He is reported as not being much in sympathy with the notion that only very rich men can be sent to London, Paris, St. Petersburg and Vienna, and as on the lookout for men who "will be able to know an American when they see him." That is rather a dig at some of our wealthy diplomatists; whether it is deserved or not I do not know; but I do know that an ambassador to England, or France. or Rus sia or Austria who is not well fixed in this world's goods will have a hard time. He has to have a house, and he is obliged to entertain. James Russell Lowell was not rich, but he did not have to en-tertain, because his wife was an invalid. Edward J. Phelps, though a comparatively poor man, was very popular in London, but he had a hard time...

Observing the men at the wheels of the different machines in any big event, one is struck by the predomin less of consequences, have left their marks on those lean, strong, weatherbeaten faces waiting at the line forthe starter's signal. Not reckless, but absolutely fearless, every man is ready to offer up his life to the spirit of speed. A driver who was seriously injured while practising for the Briarcliff race said as soon as he recovered consciousness: "This makes nineteen times in nine years that I have had broken bones, but I 'm going to keep right on racing." George Robertson's narrow escapes from death on the track would fill a volume. Speed contests and endurance runs certainly weed out the weaklings; no man who is a coward can hope to drive a racing-car to victory, and several drivers now in the public eye have proved themselves to he possessed of courage, endurance and heroism equal to any ever displayed on the battle-fields of history. I. B. Ryall won the hill-climb up Giant's Despair at Wilkesbarre, in May, 1907, driving with a sprained wrist and taking twelve seconds off the world's record for such a feat. Later on, in the twenty--four-hour endurance race at Brighton Beach, the same man drove with a broken leg in a plaster cast strapped to the car. He clung to the wheel all night in this condition, and for one hundred miles of the distance he travelled between dark and daylight, averaging one minute and two seconds to the mile. After driving sixteen out of eighteen hours, he called upon Charles Rifen him off out of pure humanity. Any one who saw his face in the ghastly glare of the arc-lights, drawn and distorted with agony and streaming with sweat, will not soon forget it. Another striking instance...

Book A History of American Magazines  Volume II  1850 1865

Download or read book A History of American Magazines Volume II 1850 1865 written by Frank Luther Mott and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1938 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of this work, covering the period from 1741-1850, was issued in 1931 by another publisher, and is reissued now without change, under our imprint. The second volume covers the period from 1850 to 1865; the third volume, the period from 1865 to 1885. For each chronological period, Mr. Mott has provided a running history which notes the occurrence of the chief general magazines and the developments in the field of class periodicals, as well as publishing conditions during that period, the development of circulations, advertising, payments to contributors, reader attitudes, changing formats, styles and processes of illustration, and the like. Then in a supplement to that running history, he offers historical sketches of the chief magazines which flourished in the period. These sketches extend far beyond the chronological limitations of the period. The second and third volumes present, altogether, separate sketches of seventy-six magazines, including The North American Review, The Youth's Companion, The Liberator, The Independent, Harper's Monthly, Leslie's Weekly, Harper's Weekly, The Atlantic Monthly, St. Nicholas, and Puck. The whole is an unusual mirror of American civilization.
