Download or read book The Star Spangled Banner Classic Reprint written by Adam Fuhrmann Hon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Star-Spangled Banner The wilderness or multitude of stars in the Heavens commonly described as the Zodiac, was divided into twelve equal sections, and the stars contained in the prescribed area of thirty degrees were then spoken of as a horde or wandering tribe. Science has established for each area specific functions in life, and these attributes were expressed by the scientists at a very early period in a symbolic form, and when collectively taken and assembled, represent the Red, White, and Blue, and symbolize all the powers and elements of nature necessary to life. F mm the foregoing facts we may rationally conclude that flags of some kind have been used at all times and places since the beginning of creation, and we may also assume, that many of these were either whimsical or merely serving but a limited or fancied expression of thought, but in the star-spangled Banner or perfect banner, we have all of the varied banners previously established symbolizing the forces and elements necessary to life assembled in one great whole, and while they are not discernible to the eye as such can nevertheless be comprehended and under stood by the contemplative mind. The fact remains that in all of God's kingdoms nothing can live and thrive under conditions other than those symbolized by the star-spangled Banner, affec tionately called the Red, White, and Blue, or the Stars and Stripes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Victor Hugo These Greek capitals, black with age, and quite deeply graven in the stone, with I know not what signs peculiar to Gothic caligraphy imprinted upon their forms and upon their attitudes, as though with the purpose of revealing that it had been a hand of the Middle Ages which had inscribed them there, and especially the fatal and melancholy meaning contained in them, struck the author deeply. He questioned himself; he sought to divine who could have been that soul in torment which had not been willing to quit this world without leaving this stigma of crime or unhappi ness upon the brow of the ancient church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Wake of the Green Banner The room was high and wide. A trefoil-shaped opening faced the door. Through the trefoil the glance swept the European town. A glimpse through the door revealed a Moorish peristyle, a pergola, an Oriental city bathed in the transparencies of late afternoon's atmosphere, and an endless perspective of palm gardens. There was little light in the solemn apartment. Blue on the limewash of the vaulted ceiling, violet on the pink walls where the arabesques of a whimsical frieze shone with a glitter of molten brass, twilight shadow was the true inmate of the room. A thick Persian rug covered the mosaic. Three onyx steps led to an alcove. The most conspicuous piece of furniture was a low Moorish bed of red damask and green linen. A large coffer, such as native women use to hoard their jewels and finery, standing close to the wall and covered with a leopardskin, constituted a very decorative, if not a very comfortable, divan. Upon the rug of old-rose color, near an unlighted brasero of mediaeval Spanish pattern, a mandolin rested on cushions of brocade and velvet.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from When the Star Spangled Banner Cheered His Lonely Heart and Sounded Best to Him: Being the Experience of a Soldier of the A. E. F. And a French Child This literary trifle was written in a hurry and under very unfavorable circumstances. The war was over. The only son was safely back. The household goods from the home in Chicago, were packed and stored. My lares and penates were abandoned. If Dick was going back to Oklahoma, so was I. We turned our backs on the city and went to the country the old home Oakland on the Mississippi River. After a few days' rest, Dick went on to the south west. Left alone, as it were, I began to realize that war is never paid for until afterwards. The strain under which I had worked during the war, was telling on me. I felt worn and weary beyond expression. The daily rural route brought me a stack of mail. All magazines and papers were turned over to the tenants. I told them I did not want to look at a magazine or read a paper. They took me liter ally and very carefully tried to keep all reading matter out of my sight, though occasionally, I would hear a newspaper rustling in another room. One day in walking around the yard, I noticed in the blue grass, a torn yellow, dirty, jagged-edged piece of news paper, not as large as the palm of my hand. I stooped and picked it up, intending to put it in the stove. My eye lit on. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

After the voyage of Henry Hudson, a company of Swedes made a settlement on the Delaware River. This had been planned by the great Gustavus Adolphus, King of Sweden. That colony will be the jewel of my kingdom, he said; but the Lion of the North was Slain in battle, and his twelve-year-old daughter Chris tina had become queen. That is why the loyal Swedes named their little fortification Fort Christiana, and over it they raised the flag of their country, a blue banner with a yellow cross.

This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Around the World With the Blue Jackets, or How We Displayed the American Flag in Foreign Waters Such an expedition partook largely of the nature of an excursion. Applications for service were numerous, and the influence of the powers that be was sought by many officers to enable them to be detailed to the Iroquois. Our twenty-four officers, our one hundred and seventy-five sailors and marines all looked forward to the trip with eagerness, and there was less of the conventional grumbling that is the accompaniment of every voyage - unless it was at the delay in starting. Tiresome business, this of the navy? You ask. Well - no! And yes! The bitter experiences are the long three-years' separa tions from loved ones at home, the weary waiting for news from them, and for the often delayed orders to return after the term of the cruise has expired. Each officer is supposed to be entitled to a certain amount of sea-service, and a corresponding amount of shore-service. Too often, however, favoritism has interfered and permitted certain officers seven and eight years of service at home, while others less fortunate have been compelled to spend more than their rightful Share at sea.

Download or read book John Black the Apostle of the Red River written by George Bryce and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Black, the Apostle of the Red River: Or, How the Blue Banner Was Unfurled on Manitoba Prairies We are in the habit of referring to the heroic deeds of our fathers, whether English, Scottish, Irish or French, in the struggles they endured and the sacrifices they made for country or religion. The service rendered to liberty and religion by Cromwell and his Ironsides at Marston Moor or Naseby, by Hamilton and his Covenanters at Drumclog, by King William and his followers at Boyne and Londonderry, or by Henry and his Huguenots at Ivry, may well stir our bosoms with emotion. But this century has, in the piping times of peace, developed a new and, perhaps, greater heroism in the army of Christian adventurers going to all lands, and proclaiming under King Jesus a war against sin and idolatry, in which battles for the truth are fought against "principalities and powers" as real as those against Prince Rupert, or the bloody Claverhouse.
