Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life Story of Albert Pike I have said to you that I very much prefer not to comply with this request, but because both yourself and Mr. Allsopp are so deeply interested in this subject, and because you are both friends of mine, I very reluctantly yield. After all, what is there to be said in a brief space, of this truly Great Man, great in so many ways, after the very readable and very attractive story contained in this volume? Surely there is little I might add, beyond expressing my sincere appreciation of the work itself, and that Mr. Allsopp and yourself will give many, very many Masons, throughout the United States, an opportunity of reading much of the history of the Man and Mason so well loved in life, and whose memory is so sincerely and affectionately cherished. There might be volumes written of the works of General Pike, and then the half would not be told. But it seems to me this Life Story well covers incidents and characteristics of his life, many of which never before have been touched on, that will prove of great interest to all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gen. Albert Pike's Poems: With Introductory Biographical Sketch I need offer no apology for presenting to the public this volume of Gen. Albert Pike's Poems; the poems are too good to be lost, and I wonder that a collection of the author's writings has not been published for general circulation long since. Being a great admirer of those of the poems which I had read, I sought and obtained the sanction of the celebrated author's daughter, Miss Lilian Pike, since become Mrs. Roome, to publish same, and induced her to write the accompanying splendid biographical sketch of her honored father.

Download or read book A Life of Albert Pike written by Walter Lee Brown and published by . This book was released on 1997-07 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Life of Albert Pike, originally published in 1997, is as much a study of antebellum Arkansas as it is a portrait of the former general. A native of Massachusetts, Pike settled in Arkansas Territory in 1832 after wandering the Great Plains of Texas and New Mexico for two years. In Arkansas he became a schoolteacher, newspaperman, lawyer, Whig leader, poet, Freemason, and Confederate general who championed secession and fought against Black suffrage. During his tenure as Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite—a position he held for more than thirty years beginning in 1859—Pike popularized the Masonic movement in the American South and Far West. In the wake of the Civil War, Pike left Arkansas, ultimately settling in Washington, D.C., where he lived out his last years in the Mason's House of the Temple. Drawing on original documents, Pike’s copious writings, and interviews with Pike’s descendants, Walter Lee Brown presents a fascinating personal history that also serves as a rich compendium of Arkansas’s antebellum history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bibliography of the Writings of Albert Pike: Prose, Poetry, Manuscript Albert Pike, son of Benjamin and Sarah (Andrews) Pike, was born in Boston, Massachusetts, December 29, 1809. About four years afterward his father removed to Newburyport in the same State. Here the child grew to manhood, getting the usual education of the times in the common schools, supplemented by a few terms at a private school in the same town and at the academy in Framingham. He began to teach school at the age of fifteen and when he was sixteen, he passed an examination for and entered the freshman class at Harvard. Owing to the straitened circumstances of his family, it was necessary for him to earn the money to pay for his board and tuition, which he did by teaching during the fall and winter at Gloucester. He fitted himself while teaching to enter the junior class in the fall of 1826 and passed the necessary examination, but owing to a misunderstanding with the faculty regarding his tuition fees he returned home and educated himself, going through the prescribed course of studies for the junior and senior years while teaching. He taught in Fairhaven and afterward as assistant and principal in the grammar school at Newburyport, and then for several years in a private school in the latter town, until March, 1831. In the spring of 1831 he started for the west walking much of the way, and for the next few years traveled, explored, traded and lived among the Indians, learning their language and customs, and by his honest and straightforward association with them, gained a confidence which thirty years afterwards, during the great Civil War, made him so useful and powerful among them for the cause of the Confederacy which he espoused. He finally settled in Little Rock in 1833, and it was there that he became editor of the Arkansas Advocate, studied law and wrote for some of the magazines. His series of poems entitled "Hymns to the Gods," which were written earlier, he sent to the editor of Blackwoods Magazine, John Wilson (Christopher North), who published them about 1838, pronouncing him "The coming poet of America" and remarking that "These fine hymns entitle their author to take his place in the highest order of his country's poets" and that "His massive genius marks him to be the poet of the Titans." He was a Captain of Cavalry in the Mexican War, where he served with distinction, participating in the battle of Buena Vista and afterwards riding a distance of five hundred miles, from Saltillo to Chihuahua, through a country swarming with the fugitive soldiers from Santa Anna's defeated armies, with only forty-one men of his command, receiving the surrender of the city of Mapini on the way.

Mackey and published by Strelbytskyy Multimedia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 2749 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ethics and philosophy of Freemasonry depend on monotheistic religions and the ancient constitution of the Freemasons. The constitution describes the rules and rituals that members must follow. Some of the ceremonies incorporate stonemasonry tools, which symbolize not only the construction of Solomon’s Temple, but also the forging of partnerships. While masonic practices are cloaked in secrecy, this collection gathers the best-known sources portraying the statutes, laws, symbols, rituals, and customs of Masonic societies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lyrics and Love Songs Before we issued the first edition of my father's poems, I had commenced collecting material for a complete bi ography of him; and a part of this material was used by me to write the biographical sketch which served as a preface to the poems. When we concluded to issue the second edition, having considered the matter carefully, I felt that the time had come to complete the full biography, and to edit the prose writings, publishing the entire col lection as the Life and Works of General Albert Pike. Mr. Allsopp assured me of his entire accord with these views, and the present edition is the result of our hearty co-operation. I thought it would be a good plan to have the Life and Recollections precede the prose writings, and I h0pe the public will approve of this innovation. The announcement of the forthcoming edition, with the full life and prose writings, in addition to the complete collection of his poems, was heartily welcomed by the friends and admirers of my father in every section of the country, which has been a great encouragement to me in such an important undertaking. I have been specially careful to nothing extenuate nor aught set down in malice, and have edited the writings with the utmost care and conscientiousness; and the readers may rely upon the absolute correctness of any statement made by me as of my own knowledge.
