Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Portage Path The Primitive Cuyahoga Valley There are very many vallies, vallies of renown. But the Cuyahoga valley was fairer than these. And greener its grasses and taller its trees 'Ere the sound of the ax in the forest had rung, Or the mower his scythe in the meadows had swung. I n their sheltered repose looking out from the wood, The bark-builded wigwams of the Ottawas stood: There glided the corn dance, the council-fire shone. And against the red war-post the hatchet was thrown. There the old smoked in silence their pipe, and the young To the pike and the white perch their baited lines flung! There the boy shaped his arrows, and there the shy maid Wove her many-hued baskets and bright wampum braid. 0 stream of Hopocan! if answer of thine Could raise from thy waters to question of mine, Methinks through the din of thy thronged banks a moan Of sorrow would swell for the days that are gone. Not for thee, dull jar of the loom and the wheel. The gliding of shuttles, the ringing of steel: But that old voice of water, of bird and of breeze. The dip of the wild fowl, the rustling of trees.

Portage Path The Center Of Indian Communication Long before Lake Erie was located on the map of the world, or the La Belle Riviere known to the geographers of Europe, many decades before the Argonauts of civilization had penetrated westward beyond the St Lawrence, great aboriginal highways existed connecting the distant waters of the large lakes with the great salt sea, and with the mighty Mississippi, the father of all living rivers on the wild American continent. Journey with us to that distant, forest-clad land, and pass over with us some of these ancient trails that push their winding, tortuous way by the banks of sedgy lakes, across wide and swift rivers, or else following the early conformation of the shore line of the immense fresh water lakes, or striking out into the heart of the wilderness for hundreds of miles, turning, twisting but: ever moving forward to a known objective point without loss of time. These were the highways of that restless, adventurous, migratory race or races which held tha country by virtue of original possession. Along these routes they came with swift and tireless feet, bent, either upon the delights of the chase, or upon the much-to-be-desired war of the race. W ar brought distinction, made mighty chiefs, furnished an exercise for their naturally cruel instincts, brought plunder and pelf and profit; abounded in change of scene, exciting episodes and startling features. Its climaxes were not always pleasant or desirable, but they were accepted with the stoic philosophy of the red man as the fortune of war. Along these lengthening trails came and went these feather-bedecked, sinister-painted, wild men of the forest. Swiftly, surely, without noise or bluster, these hyenas of the wilderness sped on their...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Long Portage There were streaks of snow on some of them, for win ter threatened to close in unusually early. With a lowering sky overhead and the daylight beginning to fade, it was a desolate picture; one into which the lonely figure of the man in tattered deerskin jacket and shapeless hat somehow fitted. His attire matched the gray-white coloring of rock and boulder; his spare form and agile movements, together with the intentness of his bronzed face and the steadiness of his eyes, hinted at the quickness of observation, the stub born endurance, and the tireless activity, by which alone life can be maintained in the savage North. He had the alertness of the wild creatures of the waste; and it was needed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Men 01 every race, nation and faith have fled, wan dered and drifted to this great and inviting land, till we may boast of an aggregation the like of which can not be seen elsewhere on earth. And the charm of the New World has possessed them like a spell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from By Path and Trail The romance and weird fascination which belong to immense solitudes and untenanted wilds are fading away and, in a few years, will be as if they were not. The in tangible and the immaterial leave no memories after them. The march of civilization is a benediction for the future, but it is also a devastation before which savage nature and savage man must go down. Unable or unwilling to adapt himself to new conditions and to the demands of a life foreign to his nature and his experience original man of North America is doomed, like the wild beast he hunted, to extinction. For centuries he stubbornly contested the white man's right to invade and seize upon his hunting grounds; he was no coward and when compelled, at last, to strike a truce with his enemy, he felt that Fate was against him, yielded to the inevitable and - all was over. In the Bacatete mountains, amid the terrifying solitudes of the Sierras of Northern Mexico, the Yaquis - last of the fighting tribes - is disappearing in a lake of blood and when he is submerged the last dread war-whoop will shriek his requiem. It will never again be heard upon the earth. The lonely regions of our great continent, over which there brooded for unnumbered ages the silence which was before creation, are disappearing with the vanishing Indian; a new vegetable and a new animal life are sup planting the old now on the road to obliteration. The ruin is pathetic, but inevitable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
