Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Plumer Jacobs: Literary and Biographical In line with my promise to write you about Father, I think the biggest thing in his character was his absolute. Altruism. He lived, not for himself, but for others. This was based upon his deep religious convictions. As a theologian, he was dogmatic, and absolutely orthodox, but he was not formal. He took his religion as the greatest fact in life. He believed with an implicit faith, extraordinary in these times of formalism, and it was that faith which made possible his great altruism. He was a strong believer in the efficacy of prayer, and he proved experimentally through many years of experience that God would answer the prayer of faith. He believed that we should live as Jesus lived. He believed this, not merely in the way of assent to its truth, but in the way of consecration to its execution. It was a daily matter, an hour ly matter with him. I have no doubt that many a time he felt that he fell short of his duty and his obligation to live as Christ lived, but whatever temporary aberrations may have occurred which he may have been able to see, there were few others who were able to see any such short-comings, and the wonder is that a mere human being could have lived so closely to the doctrinal standards to which he so strongly adhered. The product of such a life every one can see, and all admire. They are amazed that, in his age, it was possible for a man to live for others, for the sake of his faith in God and his feeling of obligation to do his duty. Of course every one, to a certain de gree, is guided by his conscience and lives according to his doc trine, but there are few, if any, in our time and acquaintance who had so clear a vision of God and of the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who so absolutely believed and in his belief attempted to emulate, and there are precious few who in any time have been able so to Walk in His way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of William Plumer Jacobs HE value of a human life to his fellows and, I therefore, of any biography to a library con sists not in the name of the subject, nor in that of the town in which he lived. Neither do the names of his loved ones nor their number avail, nor his length of years with their praises and honours, to make the record of his days valuable. But if to these things which he holds in common with other men be added some new quality of struggle, some new fineness of sentiment, some new cleverness of thought; or if per chance there was discovered in his career an old truth, and one almost forgotten, to be set aglow with a mar vellons light, then, ere he has walked to the end of his lonely path - for it is always lonely - men are following in the glow of his torch and when his career is done the very glory of God is seen to illumine his footway. That is why the details of a man's life are usually uninteresting and the one thing he thought or felt or did fascinates. The details of Robert Fulton's days or the grandparents of Abraham Lincoln are only so much chaff swept aside by the wind of human thought seeking the kernel of their life-discoveries. So it is ever. A man must be just like his fellows to be of any value to them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diary of William Plumer Jacobs It is the story of a little boy in a great city who fell in love with all good things and who resolved to center his whole life upon obtaining them, and who did so. It is the story of a youth to whom a church, and an orphan age, and a college, and a library, and a printing office meant so much in the great city of Charleston, that he transplanted them to a wide place in the road which was Clinton of 1865. It is the story of an aged man whose faith, and love, and courage were sufficient to conquer sickness, and blindness, and deafness, and years, and death.

Download or read book Recovering the Piedmont Past written by Timothy P. Grady and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An anthology exploring the modernization of the South Carolina upcountry and the region's role in creating the New South Continuing the theme of unexplored moments introduced in Recovering the Piedmont Past: Unexplored Moments in Nineteenth-Century Upcountry South Carolina History, Timothy P. Grady joins with Andrew H. Myers to edit this second anthology that uncovers the microhistory of this northwest region of the state. Topics include the influence of railroads on traveling circuses, tourist resorts and visits by Booker T. Washington during the rise of Jim Crow, pioneering efforts by progressives to identify the cause of pellagra disease, a debate over populism involving "Pitchfork Ben" Tillman, the acculturation of Greek immigrants, and the daily lives of Civilian Conservation Corps workers during the New Deal. After years of being overshadowed by the coastal elite, upcountry South Carolinians began to play a vital role in modernizing the region and making it an integral part of the "New South." In a study of this shift in the balance of power, the contributors examine religious history, the economic boom and bust, popular recreational activities, and major trends that played out in small places. By providing details and nuance that illuminate the historical context of the New South and engaging with the upcountry from fresh angles, this second volume expresses a deep local interest while also speaking to broader political and social issues. Melissa Walker, the George Dean Johnson, Jr. Professor of History Emerita at Converse College and coeditor of Recovering the Piedmont Past: Unexplored Moments in Nineteenth-Century South Carolina History, provides a foreword.
