Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 151 In regard to the first of these objections (that based upon the inadequacy of the measure), I have to observe that Mr. Parnell has overstated his case. If we take into account the advances authorized under the existing land-purchase acts, the total amount to be expended in the first instance on land-purchase in Ireland will not be thirty-three millions, as Mr. Parnell appears to suppose, but over forty millions. Moreover, this forty millions does not, as Mr. Parnell would have his readers believe, repro sent the whole amount to be expended under the government bill. On the contrary, as the loans are repaid by the first set of purchasing tenants, they can be reissued for the purpose of facili tating sales to a new set of tenants, so that, in reality, the govern ment bill not only provides an enormous fund immediately avail able for the creation of a peasant proprietary, but it supplies, in addition, a constant revenue applicable to the same purpose.

Book The North American Review  Vol  48  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 48 Classic Reprint written by Making Of America Project and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 48 But no part Of his early studies was so advantageous to him, as the long series Of diligent researches, which he carried on upon the Site of the principal Cities of Ancient Italy fre quently directing in person the excavations from which his materials were to be derived, and pursuing with his own eyes the numerous topographical investigations, the neglect of which had hitherto formed one of the Chief obstacles to a Satisfactory history of that remote period. An attentive Study of numismatics strengthened and confirmed the views, which these preparatory researches had suggested and, when he first put his hand to the composition of his history of Italy before the Roman Conquest, there was hardly a spot of the peninsula which he had not visited, or an important monu ment which he had not examined. This work was published in Florence, in 1810, in four volumes octavo, together with a folio Atlas, containing sixty plates, illustrative of the manners and customs of the ancient Italians. Its object was as important as its plan was new. Ancient Italy had till then been the subject of puerile fables, or of researches purely antiquarian. Micali was the first who ventured to engage in the bold and hazardous task of separating the false from the true, in the fragments which have come down to us Of the old writers, and of restoring the history of this primitive civilization, by drawing from its numerous monuments their varied and enigmatic records. His work was divided into two parts. The first is devoted to a descriptive examination of the original divisions and Of the primitive inhabitants of the country. The second is a narrative of their revolutions and of the various incidents of their history. The History of Italy before the Roman Conquest, preceded the Roman History of Niebuhr, and, if we may be allowed to judge by the rank which these two celebrated works seem now to have permanently taken, has survived it. Niebuhr himself, who had attacked many of the positions of Micali in his first edition refracted his accusations in the last.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 131 Prince Bismarck's sentiments toward America are mainly those of the German people as a whole so that it is enough to say that these sentiments may be further explained by the fact that the tem per of the American people and that of our great regenerator have some qualities in common with each other, of which I need only mention here the daring and far-sighted policy, the bold and per sistent triumph over all difficulties, and, above all, the realistic views and treatment of affairs observable in the entire conduct of them both.

Book The North American Review  Vol  54  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 54 Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 54 The barrens are moved over by troops with comparative fa cility, but, being everywhere intersected by spurs of hum mocks, or by the hummocks themselves, no march of many hours can be made in any section of the territory, that does not encounter impediments which obstruct, delay, or, per haps, entirely turn it aside. Besides, in the more southern portions of the peninsula, there are cypress swamps, the most impracticable of all the embarrassments that beset military Operations in Florida. The cypress has a base that spreads like a trumpet's mouth, and, though the trees may stand many feet apart, they almost crowd at the surface of the earth; while nearly every interstice is filled up by cypress knees, which are Sharp, slender, and short cones, seemingly set there like artificial obstructions to a march. These swamps are moreover mostly inundated, as their name bespeaks. In this enumeration of difficulties, we must not forget the saw-grass and saw-palmetto, both of which have ser rated edges, made harsh and unyielding by the mineral sub stance they take up in their growth, which tear the clothes, and lacerate the legs and feet of the soldiers moving through them, to a degree that can scarcely be comprehended by those who have not seen or felt their effects. The trace of a column through these lets and hinderances has often been marked by blood and the tatters of clothing.

Download or read book How They Lived written by András Koerner and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-10 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the physical aspects of the lives of Hungarian Jews in the late 19th and early 20th centuries: the way they looked, the kind of neighborhoods and apartments they lived in, and the places where they worked. The many historical photographs—there is at least one picture per page—and related text offers a virtual cross section of Hungarian society, a diverse group of the poor, the middle-class, and the wealthy. Regardless of whether they lived integrated within the majority society or in separate communities, whether they were assimilated Jews or Hasidim, they were an important and integral part of the nation. We have surprisingly few detailed accounts of their lifestyles—the world knows more about the circumstances of their deaths than about the way they lived. Much like piecing together an ancient sculpture from tiny shards found in an excavation, Koerner tries to reconstruct the many diverse lifestyles using fragmentary information and surviving photos.

This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 146 It is easy to underrate the force of the attack which President Cleveland leads. That attack has specious and plausible feat ures. It courts the favor of woolen manufacturers who wish to use foreign wool, and of iron manufacturers who want to use the ores of Cuba, the steel ingots of England, and the wire rods-of Germany. It fits with the free trade theories which Mr. George has been preaching to workingmen, and with the tariff reform conception which men have adopted whose only idea of wisdom is to be'on neither side very much, and to meet every Irrepressible Conflict with a Peace Conference or a Compromise bill. Espe cially it kindles the enthusiasm of Southern politicians and plant ers, and opens the exhaustless money chests of foreign bankers, importers, and manufacturers' agents, whose help in a city where votes were bought in November is not to be despised. Millions of money will be spent to prevent the defeat of the first American President to propose that Americans shall perpetually tax their pipes and their glasses in order to get their clothing from Germany, their ore from Cuba and Spain, and their steel rails from England. Millions of money can be defeated only by millions of well-informed and unpurchasable votes in the shops and on the farms. There are only ten months in which to educate the millions. This attack cannot be met by shouting free trade as one cries mad dog in hot weather, with assured confidence that nobody will stop to inspect the dog until he is' dead. Of the Americans who once knew well the sharp dividing line between free trade and protective policies, two-thirds sleep in the church yards. Seven millions of emigrants since 1860 do not know why freedom, free speech, free land, and free trade should not go to gether. Six millions of colored persons, where they are permitted to vote at all, think only of protection as something they have always lacked. One generation has grown up in the belief that more money, or white money, or sound money, would cure all ills. Another generation has come upon the stage whose eyes never saw the dependent and industrially subjugated nation which tarifi-for-revenue-only was meant to produce and did produce, and who imagine that sheep, a woolen manufacture consuming pounds of wool, mines yielding 000 tons of iron ore, and mills making more than a third of the steel in. The world, are as natural and necessarily permanent parts of4 the north american review. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 167 Classic Reprint written by A. T. Rice and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 774 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 167 When I left for Egypt last December I took with me the North American Review for that month, containing Mr. Penfield's remarkable article, entitled "England's Absorption of Egypt." I may mention at once that neither in Britain nor in Egypt have I ever heard the term "absorption" applied to the British "occupation" of Egypt; and I have never received, either at home or abroad, any, corroboration of Mr. Penfield's assertion that my countrymen led strangers to believe that Egypt has "been severed from the Ottoman Empire and incorporated as an integral part of Queen Victoria's realm." He maintains that by unparalleled audacity Britain has taken possession of Egypt, the fact being that Britain intervened in 1882 to save Egypt from anarchy and that the occupation of Egypt by Britain was and is desired and sanctioned by four out of the six Great Powers of Europe. The reason why the British occupation continues is that, if it ceased, the prosperity of Egypt, the result of Britain's magnificent work there since 1882, would come to an end.
