Download or read book A History of Longfellow s Wayside Inn written by Brian E. Plumb and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011-11-04 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longfellow's Wayside Inn in Sudbury, Massachusetts, is the most venerable of all the old historic taverns still operating in America. Built three hundred years ago by the How family, it has witnessed Indian affairs, colonial wars and the coming of the stagecoach, railroad and automobile. The poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow immortalized it in verse with his 1863 collection Tales of a Wayside Inn, suddenly making it a desired destination for travelers. Longfellow's romanticized description of the inn later so inspired Henry Ford that he purchased and restored the building and its surrounding three thousand acres. Join author Brian Plumb as he traverses the highways of New England's history to discover the stories of Longfellow's Wayside Inn.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Mary and Her Little Lamb, as Told by Mary and Her Neighbors and Friends: To Which Is Added a Critical Analysis of the Poem There was a Mary, and there was a lamb. It is not an imaginary tale about an imaginary Mary and a mythical lamb that the poem celebrates, for Mary herself lived until 1889, and the old Redstone Schoolhouse of District No. 2, in Sterling, Massachusetts, is still to be seen in use. But the schoolhouse is not in Sterling now. When it became known as the scene of the immortal children's classic it was removed for preservation and now stands in the shadow of deep woods on a side road near Longfellow's Wayside Inn, at Sudbury, Massachusetts, where its old walls echo to songs and lessons again.

Download or read book Slow Print written by Elizabeth Carolyn Miller and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-09 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the literary culture of Britain's radical press from 1880 to 1910, a time that saw a flourishing of radical political activity as well as the emergence of a mass print industry. While Enlightenment radicals and their heirs had seen free print as an agent of revolutionary transformation, socialist, anarchist and other radicals of this later period suspected that a mass public could not exist outside the capitalist system. In response, they purposely reduced the scale of print by appealing to a small, counter-cultural audience. "Slow print," like "slow food" today, actively resisted industrial production and the commercialization of new domains of life. Drawing on under-studied periodicals and archives, this book uncovers a largely forgotten literary-political context. It looks at the extensive debate within the radical press over how to situate radical values within an evolving media ecology, debates that engaged some of the most famous writers of the era (William Morris and George Bernard Shaw), a host of lesser-known figures (theosophical socialist and birth control reformer Annie Besant, gay rights pioneer Edward Carpenter, and proto-modernist editor Alfred Orage), and countless anonymous others.

Austin Freeman: Thriller Classics, Adventure Novels & Detective Stories (Illustrated)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Richard Austin Freeman (1862-1943) was a British writer of detective stories, mostly featuring the forensic investigator Dr. Thorndyke. He introduced the inverted detective story; a crime fiction in which the commission of the crime is described at the beginning, usually including the identity of the perpetrator, with the story then describing the detective's attempt to solve the mystery. Many of the Dr. Thorndyke stories involve genuine, but often quite arcane, points of scientific knowledge, from areas such as tropical medicine and toxicology.
