Download or read book History and Government of West Virginia Classic Reprint written by Virgil Anson Lewis and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Government of West Virginia The idea of preparing a history of West Virginia as text-book for use in the public and private schools of the State was not born of a sudden impulse. For more than a quarter of a century the author has been engaged in public school work, and nearly all that time in active classwork in the schoolroom. While so engaged he became strongly impressed with the fact that any course of instruction is seriously defective if it does not include a study that enables pupils to grow familiar with the history of their own State and people. History is also entitled to a place in the curriculum because it possesses high value as a character-builder, because its subject-matter is in itself deeply interesting, and because it readily leads into other subjects of the school course. This book has been prepared for the use of schools, and its aim is to place in the hands of the children of West Virginia a faithful, non-sectarian and non-partisan history of the State in which they will eventually have to discharge the duties of citizens or residents. As West Virginia is one of the many States composing the Great Republic, enough of national history has been interwoven to enable the pupil to perceive in what manner and to what extent the local laws, customs and institutions of the State have been affected by events occurring in the progress of the Nation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Health and Wealth of the City of Wheeling: Including Its Physical and Medical Topography; Also, General Remarks on the Natural Resources of West Virginia Dry and unattractive as Sanitary Studies may appear, they belong to the patriot no less than the philanthropist; they touch very nearly the future prosperity and national greatness of England. Don't fancy that the mischief done by disease spreading in the community is to be measured by the number of deaths which ensue - that is the least part of the result, as in the battle the killed bear but a small proportion to the wounded. It is not merely by the crowded hospitals, the frequent funerals, the destitution Of families, or the increased pressure of the public burthens, that you may test the sufferings of a nation over which sickness has passed: the real and lasting injury lies in the deterioration of race, in the seeds of disease transmitted to future generations, in the degeneracy and decay which are never detected till the evil is irreparable, and of which, even then, the cause remains often undiscovered. - Lora' Stanley.
