Book excerpt: Excerpt from Where Town and Country Meet Sometimes in January, oftener toward the close of February, there comes to our winter-bound Northern States a day or two, perhaps a week, of balmy, springlike weather, that uncovers the brown earth and sets the streams a-brawling, and makes one think that verily old winter's fetters have been broken.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pottleton Legacy: A Story of Town and Country Life About fifty miles from town, taking a somewhat westerly direction, there is a little village, which has generally been considered so very unimportant a place, that it has not found its way into any gazetteer; nor, indeed, can the most microscopic eye discover its name in the county map. It has even been accounted too out-of-the-way a spot to be published as the abode of any patient marvellously cured by a patent medicine. In fact, until very lately, nobody was known who had ever been there, except the candidates for the shire, on their canvassing expeditions preceding a contested election; the carrier, who met the mail on the high road, at the finger-post, some three miles away, and was also the postman; or the literary missionary, who left works in numbers at the farm-houses, whereof the gentle excitement was well sustained, by sewing up the most startling illustrations with the heavier reading, opposite remote parts of the story; which was an admirable notion, and very promotive of continued curiosity. This little village, then, which was called Pottleton - or Pot'ton, by popular rustic elision - was situated in a valley, along the centre of which ran a small stream, whose only mission was to turn a couple of mills, and then babble pleasantly through some rich meadows, spangled with water-lilies, and edged with round-headed pollards, until it tumbled over the lock of a canal near the high road. The valley ran from east to west, and so the village had the sun all day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Our Town written by Cynthia Carr and published by Crown. This book was released on 2007-03-27 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brutal lynching of two young black men in Marion, Indiana, on August 7, 1930, cast a shadow over the town that still lingers. It is only one event in the long and complicated history of race relations in Marion, a history much ignored and considered by many to be best forgotten. But the lynching cannot be forgotten. It is too much a part of the fabric of Marion, too much ingrained even now in the minds of those who live there. In Our Town journalist Cynthia Carr explores the issues of race, loyalty, and memory in America through the lens of a specific hate crime that occurred in Marion but could have happened anywhere. Marion is our town, America’s town, and its legacy is our legacy. Like everyone in Marion, Carr knew the basic details of the lynching even as a child: three black men were arrested for attempted murder and rape, and two of them were hanged in the courthouse square, a fate the third miraculously escaped. Meeting James Cameron–the man who’d survived–led her to examine how the quiet Midwestern town she loved could harbor such dark secrets. Spurred by the realization that, like her, millions of white Americans are intimately connected to this hidden history, Carr began an investigation into the events of that night, racism in Marion, the presence of the Ku Klux Klan–past and present–in Indiana, and her own grandfather’s involvement. She uncovered a pattern of white guilt and indifference, of black anger and fear that are the hallmark of race relations across the country. In a sweeping narrative that takes her from the angry energy of a white supremacist rally to the peaceful fields of Weaver–once an all-black settlement neighboring Marion–in search of the good and the bad in the story of race in America, Carr returns to her roots to seek out the fascinating people and places that have shaped the town. Her intensely compelling account of the Marion lynching and of her own family’s secrets offers a fresh examination of the complex legacy of whiteness in America. Part mystery, part history, part true crime saga, Our Town is a riveting read that lays bare a raw and little-chronicled facet of our national memory and provides a starting point toward reconciliation with the past. On August 7, 1930, three black teenagers were dragged from their jail cells in Marion, Indiana, and beaten before a howling mob. Two of them were hanged; by fate the third escaped. A photo taken that night shows the bodies hanging from the tree but focuses on the faces in the crowd—some enraged, some laughing, and some subdued, perhaps already feeling the first pangs of regret. Sixty-three years later, journalist Cynthia Carr began searching the photo for her grandfather’s face.
