Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of My Youth, 1844-1865 For the labour of shaping for the press the present volume, I am under obligations, as has been the case with the several books that preceded it, to the skill and devoted service of my home secretary, my daughter Ethel. My eyesight has always been restricted, and as since 1864 my writing arm has been disabled, I am, in preparing material for the press, dependent upon the help of others. My record of the events of the earlier years is based in part upon some home letters of my own which had fortunately escaped destruction, and in part upon my memory of conversations with my father. It is quite possible that for some portions of the narrative which were not covered by such letters or conversations, my memory may be at fault in regard to one detail or another, but I hope that the oversights will not be found important. If the time and the strength are spared, it is my purpose to continue this narrative later with a record of the succeeding half-century, under the title of Memories of a Publisher.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections: 1837 1910 So many memoirs, reminiscences and recollections, by authors of distinction, have been published during recent years that a person so little known as I am would nat urally hesitate to appear in the same field. But such pro ductions usually describe events, incidents or person ages notable in court, camp or forum, and no one, so far as I know, has attempted to present the recollections and experiences of an ordinary life through the changes and advances of this progressive era. I had not thought of making such attempt until strongly urged to do so by my family, and by friends to whom I had related many occurrences - in answer to inquiries or as brought to mind by some new development - which they regarded as suffi ciently interesting or instructive as to be worthy of pub lication. Such urging, and also my desire to correct cer tain misstatements in harvester history and some other popular misunderstandings, finally induced me to under take the work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of Life in Ohio: From 1813 to 1840 It was at my suggestion that my father began, ten or twelve years ago, to set down the facts of his early life. At first the record was meant for his family only, but when I came to read it over I found it so full of experiences and observations of general interest, that I urged him to continue it, with a view to its final publication, and yet keep it as simple and informal as he had originally intended. This will account for its appearance and character in the present shape. He was never able to finish it, and the work of revision fell to me after his death. In doing this work I felt that the value of his reminiscences to the public was, of course, in the perspective they afforded of times and conditions long past away, and I have tried to free them from all personalities not essential to this. Necessarily, however, they remain very personal, as far as the writer and his immediate family are concerned. These, indeed, constitute the background of a picture, which could not have had due relief without them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Recollections and Impressions 1822 1890 Classic Reprint written by Octavius Brooks Frothingham and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections and Impressions, 1822-1890 My father was, as I have said elsewhere, a clergyman in Boston, Massachusetts, a Unitarian minister to the First Church, standing in a long line of men, of whom the earliest was severely orthodox, while he abhorred orthodoxy. Yet he was ordained without hesitation, was more than acceptable to the best minds through a service of thirty-five years, and continued more and more unorthodox to the end; so gradually and insensibly did the Puritan tenets disappear one by one until the shadow of them only remained. We are assured that by 1780 nearly all the congregational pulpits were filled by Arminians. In 1815, the year of my father's ordination, they were well domesticated in New England, Calvinism having lost its hold on the minds of thinking people, and none but keen-eyed watchers on the tower seeing what course opinion was taking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of Past Life The few copies so printed have long been exhausted; and I have been urged by friends whose judgment I rightly respect, to publish the volume at once, with larger additions than those hitherto made. This, I am aware, is a very old and often abused plea for publication. But in the present instance other motives concurred to justify what indeed may almost be deemed a posthumous act, seeing that I go to the press when already advanced in my eighty-fourth year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Recollections When I entered society, the German Empire had been scarcely three years in existence. France was writhing still in the convulsions of her late defeat; Russia was slowly trying to re cover the many advantages of which the Crimean war had deprived her. Motor-cars were unknown, electric light was still spoken of as something quite extraordinary, and the telephone was not yet one of the resources of civilisation. Manners, too, were different from those which prevail to-day. The hunt after notoriety had not transformed individuals into self-advertising per sonages of a stamp which is only too familiar. Society was quieter, more sedate; adventurers had still a bad time of it, and the American ele ment had not altogether invaded us. Whilst I was writing this book, I often asked myself whether it was possible that I had lived in times so entirely different from the present.
