Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cavalier in America The twin sponsors of American colonization were two cavaliers during the days of Queen Elizabeth - Sir Humphrey Gilbert and his half-brother, Sir Walter Raleigh. They conceived the idea, that to destroy the superiority of Spain, England must plant a colony in the New World. Accordingly the former obtained a patent of colonization in 1678, and attempted to establish a settlement in the neighborhood of Newfoundland. The attempt proved futile, and in the effort the noble Gilbert was drowned in the waves of the angry ocean. His last words will ever be kept in precious remembrance: "We are as near heaven by sea as by land." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cavalier, Vol. 2 of 3: A Romance The grey woman had her eye upon the troopers, as they mounted the rugged road, which passed over the crown of the moor; they attained the height, and in a few minutes their whole troop disappeared over the hill. She sat down to repose herself upon a stone which ha fallen, and which being of great size, supported the remainder of the wall, whence it had detached. "Aye, aye," said she, "after a', these reckless lads are the down o' the heather - when wad the Round-heads have offered a body a horn o' liquor?

Download or read book The Colonial Cavalier Classic Reprint written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Colonial Cavalier When the earliest colonists left England, the Cavalier was at the height of his glory. Now he represents a lost cause, and none so poor to do him reverence. The sceptre of royal authority is shattered; society has grown dull and decorous. Even in dress, the Puritan has prevailed. The peo ple who speak of Cromwell's followers as Round heads and, Cropped Ears, go closer cropped than they, and the costume of a gentleman of to day is uglier and gloomier than any the Puritan ever dreamed of introducing. These concessions of the modern world make the Puritan a familiar figure, as he stands out in the page of Hawthorne, or on the canvas of Bough ton. But the Cavalier fades into the dim and shadowy background of the past. We cannot af ford to have him slip away from us so, if we wish really to understand the history of our country; we must know both sides of its development.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Time Belles and Cavaliers The stories which form the chapters of this work have been collected with the sincere h0pe that our own and the mother country will find in them much of which to be proud. The Colonies of America, so famed in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries for their brave men, were equally rich in their beautiful women who exhibited so marvellously well the power of the highest feminine influence during the most historic and trying age the country has known. The Revolutionary days, so filled with despair and gloom, the early hours of the first Republic, were productive of some of the noblest spirits ever given to the world, and it was the staunch devotion and truth of her lovely women, the stalwart patriotism of her high-born men, that cast the lone glimmer of radiance over the appalling scenes of war.

Download or read book Washington written by William H. Mace and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Washington: A Virginia Cavalier The purpose Of the author has been not to lay stress upon the so -called' 'true George Washington, or the great planter as he over saw his plantation or read the London markets; not even to lay emphasis on the great soldier as he flamed forth in war, or the first president as he marked the pathway of the new republic. The chief aim has been to point out those qualities which endeared him to his generation, to the end that boys and girls may have stirred in them some of the affection and admiration accorded Washington by those of his own time. This is no easy task. Americans have placed Washington on a pedestal. Some of his biographers have idealized him so that he seems a demi - god. Others, in trying to avoid this mistake and give a true story, have been too realistic and have pictured only that which was commonplace in his life, calling attention to little human weaknesses which at certain times and under some circum stances he gave expression to. But you can no more tell a true life story Of a man by magnifying his faults than by overrating his virtues.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Princess Cavalier, Vol. 4: The Age of Colonization, 1570-1620 His generation in America is ushered in by the pass ing from the stage of history of Philip II, where he had played the part of villain to every nation of Europe, not excepting his own Spain. He had constituted himself the watch-dog of the New World, and no man might tread its soil without his consent. Relieved at last of the terror of Philip, France felt strong enough to begin anew her efforts at colonization in the vast unbroken territory that stretched northward from Florida over fertile fields and valleys um tenanted save by wild beasts and savage men. But, unable to forget Philip's ghost, she removed herself far to the north, where, almost simultaneously with the foundation of James town, she set her foot firmly upon the rock of Quebec.
