Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memory Sketches These bits of life, picked up from the morning, are brief, simple memories. They are recorded now, in the hope that the men and women of the race may catch from them the joy of recognition. For it has come to me they will see in my Father John, a Father John of their own; in the Deel gliding past Athery and Creelabeg, a Deel making music elsewhere; in the hedge, the garden, the bogfield of my small world, a hedge, a garden, a bogfield in the world where their young lives were lived. I cannot tell you all the quiet comfort that has come to me following the unrecorded paths of our dear priest. That he is worthy a more ambitious chronicle, I well know; and that his unforgettable goodness did not appear to one of more temperament and seeing will always seem to me a loss. These bits, however, are given out of the unwritten, larger life of the man in the trust that they may edify and please. There is no attempt at analysis, no trying to present spiritual seeing and inwardness. Just what a country lad saw and heard as from afar. God rest Father John! He had the mind of a poet and the heart of a soggarth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Drawn From Memory: Containing Many of the Author's Famous Cartoons and Sketches John mccutcheon could remember me when I wasn't much more than a wide grin. He had, therefore, the advantage of me, because my first clear memory of him is on a June week end in 1902 when I hung over his shoulder while he drew pictures of me in assorted attitudes and riding on various animals. I was growing rather lanky by that time and he did not fail to record the fact. Whenever he was a guest at my parents' table, at Ragdale, I crept part-way down the stairs in my nightgown to peek into the dining room where I could watch him happily. Sometimes the whole family sat by the fire while he told tale after tale of his adventures. Especially I liked the one about the Sultan of Sulu.

Download or read book Art Of Memory written by F A Yates and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1999. This title is the third volume in the ten-volume set titled the Selected Works of Frances Yates. Greyscale illustrations and figures are included throughout - alongside the related descriptive work where applicable. The art in this volume seeks to memorise through a technique of impressing 'places' and 'images' on memory. It has usually been classed as 'mnemotechnics', which appears an unimportant branch of human activity. However, the author discusses in this title that the manipulation of images in memory must always, to some extent, involve the psyche.

Download or read book California Sketches written by O. P. Fitzgerald and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Sketches: New and Old These Sketches wrote themselves, as it were. About three years ago my friend, Prof. Alonzo Phelps (formerly of Harvard University), in reply to my remark that somebody ought to preserve the vanishing phases of the early California life, said, "Yes, it ought to be done, and you are the man to do it." The matter was then dismissed from my mind as the flattering suggestion of a partial friend. After leaving California, every thing connected with my life, or that had come under my observation while there, assumed a fresh interest to my own mind. The remark of my friend was remembered, and, more to gratify a kindly impulse than with a view to make a volume, in snatches of such leisure as an editor gets, the penciling of these humble Sketches began. Now that the little book is finished, I am at least half sorry it was ever begun. Yet there has been a pleasure in writing it. The old days have come back to me again, and images that were fading have stood before me in the form and color of life. Ah! if I could make them stand thus before my kind readers! The Sketches are all from real life. In one or two instances names are disguised for obvious reasons. I have told the story as I saw it, and as I remember it. There is no fancy-sketch among these chapters. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The type that gives one the impression of manual work and privation in early years and luxury and leisure in later life. The train stopped at a small station where the principal citizens stood about the platform in copper-riveted overalls scratching their shins with their boot-heels. "I was reared in just such a place," he said. "In a central Indiana town consisting of a drab depot, a red elevator, a hog-chute and a saw-mill, all adjoining a trunk-line railroad track; a public square, a court-house in the center, surrounded by stores of an agricultural district - the hub of the community, with four streets extending in as many directions on which the abodes of man and beast became further apart till they diminished to open roads with green pastures on either side.
