Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winning a Cause, World War Stories Lest We Forget, the first volume of World War stories, gave an outline of the struggle up to the time of the signing of the armistice, November 1918, and contained in general, chronological order most of the stories that to children from ten to sixteen years of age would be' of greatest interest, and give the clearest understanding of the titanic contest. This, the second volume of the same series, contains the stories of the war of the character described, that were not included in Lest We Forget, stories of the United States naval heroes, of the Americans landed in France, of the concluding events of the war, of the visit of President Wilson to Europe, and of the Peace Conference. In a word, emphasis is placed upon America's part in the struggle. This volume should be of even greater interest to American children than the first, for it tells the story of America's greatest achievement, of a nation under taking a tremendous and terrible task not for material gain, but for an ideal.

Download or read book War Stories and School Day Incidents for the Children Classic Reprint written by B. M. Zettler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Stories and School-Day Incidents for the Children The appearance of these war stories in book form is due largely to the interest manifested in them by two of my most efficient and helpful colaborers during my superintendency of the Macon public schools, Mrs. A. E. Keenan, Principal of Second Street School, and Miss Clara I. Smith, Principal of Nisbet School. These teachers constantly insisted that my talks to their classes on history, which usually included an incident from my personal experience in the Confederate Army, were helpful to them in teaching United States history. If the stories contributed to the splendid work they did in history with the classes that successively came under them from year to year, they must have merit and ought to be preserved. Also, the children of all ages, with the "grown ups" as well, like the way I tell the stories, and I think they will want my book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crowning an Ideal: A Story of the World War A fond mother and a proud father thought their only boy the dearest little chap at the age of seven, and strange to say neighbors and friends agreed with them. Paul Gibson was such a slender little fellow and had sugh big, appealing brown eyes under long lashes that every one loved him at sight. He was no infant prodigy, by any means, - just an ordinary little fellow with a good disposition and lovable ways. He had a strong little will of his own to be sure, but it was in evidence only on rare occasions. If mother talked things over with him very quietly, he was pretty sure to see the reason and yield to her wishes.

Download or read book Winning a Cause written by Inez Bigwood and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-09-08 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: President Wilson declared in a speech at Philadelphia on May 10, 1915, that there is such a thing as being too proud to fight. He was severely criticized for his statement, and yet it is very true, and for more than a generation it had been taught to American boys and girls. Peace societies had sent lecturers to the public schools to point out the wickedness of war and the blessings of peace. Prizes had been offered to high school, normal school, and college students for the best essays on Peace, How to Maintain the Peace of the World, and other similar subjects. To get ready for war by enlarging the army and navy was declared to be the very best way to bring on war. School reading books made a feature of peace selections, and school histories were making as little of our national wars as possible. These teachings and the very air of the land of freedom made people too proud to fight, if there were any honorable way of avoiding it.

In the city the people on the sidewalks hummed little snatches of song to themselves as they went about their work and remembered all the pleasant things that they had ever wanted to do. - Old plans long put away as impossible were brought out and eagerly reconsidered, for in the Spring every thing is possible.

All the world loves Spring, for it is the time of year when the spirit of adventure is strongest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
