After Marshall, Sparks, and Irving have written, who indeed need take up the subject Yet it was suggested that a boys' life of this great man might still be welcomed by the public, and would find readers among the rising generation those who would shrink from a larger work, and yet could find enjoyment in a little book like this.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Washington, Vol. 5: The Rise and Progress of an American State Every student and reader of history who strives earnestly to conceive what manner of fact and of man this or that vague historical name can have been, will, as the first and directest indication of all, search for a portrait, for all the reasonable portraits there are; and never rest till he has made out, if possible, what the man's natural face was like. Often I have found a portrait superior in real instruction to half a dozen biographies, as biographies are written; or rather, let me say, I have found that the portrait was as a small lighted candle by which the biographies could for the first time be read, and some human interpretation be made of them. - Thomas Carlyle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Influence of Washington The Old South Leaflets were prepared primarily for circulation among the attendants upon the Old South Lectures for Young People. The subjects of the Leaflets are immediately related to the subjects of the lectures, and they are intended to supplement the lectures and stimulate historical interest and inquiry among the young people. They are made up, for the most part, from original papers of the periods treated in the lectures, in the hope to make the men and the public life of the periods more clear and real. The Old South Lectures for Young People were instituted in the summer of 1883, as a means of promoting a more serious and intelligent attention to historical studies, especially studies in American history among the young people of Boston. The success of the lectures has been so great as to warrant the hope that such courses may be sustained in many other cities of the country. The Old South Lectures for 1883, intended to be strictly upon subjects in early Massachusetts History, but by certain necessities somewhat modified, were as follows: "Governor Bradford and Governor Winthrop," by Edwin D. Mead. "Plymouth," by Mrs. A. M. Diaz. "Concord," by Frank B. Sanborn. "The Town-meeting," by Prof. James K. Hosmer. "Franklin, the Boston Boy," by George M. Towle. "How to study American History," by Prof. G. Stanley Hall. "The Year 1777," by John Fiske. "History in the Boston Streets," by Edward Everett Hale. The Leaflets prepared in connection with these lectures consisted of (1) Cotton Mather's account of Governor Bradford, from the "Magnalia"; (2) the account of the arrival of the Pilgrims at Cape Cod from Bradford's Journal; (3) an extract from Emerson's Concord Address 1835; (4) extracts from Emerson, Samuel Adams, De Tocqueville, and others, upon the Town-meeting; (5) a portion of Franklin's Autobiography; (6) Carlyle on the Study of History; (7) an extract from Charles Sumner's oration upon Lafayette, etc.; (8) Emerson's poem, "Boston." The lectures for 1884 were devoted to men representative of certain epochs or ideas in the history of Boston, as follows: Sir Harry Vane, in New England and in Old England, by Edward Everett Hale, Jr. John Harvard, and the Founding of Harvard College, by Edward Channig, Ph.D. The Mather Family, and the Old Boston Ministers, by Rev. Samuel J. Barrows. Simon Bradstreet, and the Struggle for the Charter, by Prof. MarshallS. Snow. Samuel Adams and the Beginning of the Revolution, by Prof. James K. Hosmer. Josiah Quincy, the Great Mayor, by Charles W. Slack. Daniel Webster, the Defender of the Constitution, by Charles C. Coffin. John A: Andrew, the great War Governor, by Col. T. W. Higginson.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Washington, Vol. 3: The Rise and Progress of an American State The Indians on the west side of the mountains were quite as annoying as those on the east side, and in places far more dangerous. Many were murdered by them. In a few cases Whole families were killed. Late in 1851 the family of Walter G. Perry, and three other families with two unmarried men, in four wagons, were traveling together near White Horse Creek in Idaho. The larger train, with which they had come most of the way, had been divided in order to find better grazing for the stock, the large number of teams which had preceded them having eaten the grass so close that theirs were finding but scanty pasturage. Early in the morning, perhaps an hour after they had left camp, they saw an unusually large number of Indians approaching, some on horses and some on foot.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Americanization as a War Measure, Vol. 18: Report of a Conference Called by the Secretary of the Interior, and Held in Washington, April 3, 1918 You are men of iron and steel, and wood and copper. You are men who deal with these material things which go to make up the great prosperity of this country, but fundamentally each one of you is a religious leader. Each one of you has in his soul a mystical quantity which represents your Americanism. There is something bigger and finer in everyone of us than the individual himself. That thing that is finer is the thing that prompts us to do the work that we are doing; and why are we working; why are we strivmg; why are we fighting on the other side to-day? Because of a divine dissatisfaction within our own souls. We are compelled to move on and on by something that we know not of. That is the essence of Americanism.' Take out of our hearts the belief that the Battle Hymn of the Republic is true, that God's truth is marching on, and you defeat America; but until you take that from us, I care not what the battles of the world may show - the spirit of America, the real America can not be beaten in battle. I want to get into your hearts, if I can at this time, a passion for Americanism, not only because Americanism is the Spirit of our country, but because Americanism is the most advanced spirit that has come to man's spirit from above.
