Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remembrances of a Pioneer He married Martha G.Campbell, of Pickaway County, Ohio. Her parents came to Ohio from Pennsylvania, and had lived in Kentucky. Samuel Campbell and Jane Fleming were married September 5, 1797. Her father had the honor of having Flemingsburgh, Kentucky, named for him. Samuel Campbell came from Ireland, and was a Presbyterian of the strictest kind, and had more love for his fellow-men than most of people have, and the most thankful person I ever saw. He never ate a meal without thanks when he commenced, and when he was done also; and how well do I remember his prayers at night when I was there! My grandmother Campbell knew the Scriptures from the first of the Bible to the last of the New Testament, and could tell where to find any text you could ask for. But the worst calamity that can come to us in this life fell to her lot many years before her death - that of insanity. After raising eight children to be men and women, to lose her mind and such a bright intellect is one of the saddest recollections of my life. There was no asylums for the insane at that time, and she had to be confined with roes and chains, - how well do I remember! - to keep her from killing her own children and all that she could get at, and had to be watched; and what a trial to the family it was!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of a Pioneer It is with this end in view, to preserve the life of the old days in its many colors, that these recollections are penned. There was more to this life than has been touched by the parlor romancers or makers of moving-picture films. Per haps some day these memories may serve to illumine the historian delving in the human records of the past. And perhaps, also, and this is the author's dearest wish, they may inspire young readers to hold to the hardy traditions of the 'fifties and to keep this spirit alive in a country des tined soon to be densely peopled with newcomers from the long-settled parts of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Journey Reminiscences of Pioneer Days The author is one of those who "crossed the plains," an achievement which at the time did not seem great in its inception nor mighty in its accomplishment, so crowded with pleasurable incidents was the journey and so full of the inspiration aroused by the necessities and ambitions of the undertaking were all. As the years have gone, however, and time has not only cast a sort of glamour over the event, but has given men an opportunity to reflect thoughtfully and in calmness and intelligence, that same journey assumes greatness in our eyes, both in inception and in its achievement. It finds a prominent place in the history of the nation, and will ever stand forth among great events. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From the green depths came the fluting of a lone wood-thrush. Through them an owl flew on velvety wings for his home in the heart of a primeval poplar. A cougar leaped from the low limb of an oak, missed, and a shuddering deer streaked through a forest aisle, bounded into a little clearing, stopped rigid, sniffed a deadlier enemy, and whirled into the wilderness again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adventures of Pioneer Children Adventures OF pioneer children was written that the rising generation might know the manifold trials endured by our forefathers in laying the foundations of the grandest republic the world has ever known, and to perpetuate the remembrance of the many acts of heroism performed by the younger patriots in the times that tried men's souls. It is hoped that its perusal by the youth of the present day may have a tendency to make them better appreciate the many great blessings and privileges they enjoy, by contrasting their life of comparative ease and comfort with the life of deprivation and peril led by pioneer children. Bearing in mind that the youth of our country is its hope; that by the immutable laws of nature you will soon take the place of those in advance of you, becoming the custodians of those precious jewels, liberty and self-government, bequeathed to us by our valiant forefathers, who purchased them at such great cost - I caution you to see to it that you do not lose them.
