Download or read book A Short History of Carleton County written by T. C. L. Ketchum and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Carleton County: New Brunswick Page Fivereader their lies a well of knowledge on the subject in the fascinating writ ings of Francis Parkman. In this brief and running sketch, one can only pause to remark that the impress of French civilization has been left on the physical outline of the country, not alone, in the name of the great river which flows through its midst, originally Riviere S. Jean, but also in the smaller streams which still carry the names of Presqu'ile and (riviere) or River des Chutes. It is to be hoped that these designations will be allowed to remain and that, in an iconoclastic age, they will not be obliterated to make room for memorials to plutocratic magnates, who would otherwise soon be forgotten. Two names, indeed, there are that might well be ap plied to future settlements or locations, suggested by mention of Archdeacon W. 0. Raymond and Dr. W. F Ganong, since by their research and writings they have contributed invaluable material dealing with the history of this part of the province.

Download or read book A Patriot s History of the United States written by Larry Schweikart and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-12-29 with total page 1373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.

Book excerpt: Corporal Harold J. Skaarup of Carleton County, New Brunswick was a Sherman tank commander in A Squadron of the 5th Armoured Regiment, 8th Princess Louise's New Brunswick Hussars during the Second World War. On the morning of the 31st of August 1944, he and his tank crew were fighting the Germans in Italy near a hill known as Point 136. His Squadron had already lost twelve of 19 tanks, ten to German 88mm anti-tank shells and 2 to breakdowns. That morning, Harold's tank was hit by a shell fired from a German 88mm anti-tank gun, and Harold was badly injured. Although he and his tank crew bailed out of the burning Sherman, mortar rounds began to land on them. Harold was hit again, this time taking shell fragments in his chest. He was evacuated to a field hospital in the rear area, but died later from his wounds on the 6th of September 1944. He was 24 years old. Today he lies buried in a Commonwealth War Grave in Montecchio, Italy. He never got home to tell his story. This record is a partial chronicle of his service, by his nephew. We never met, but I do carry his name.
