Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictures of Rhode Island: In the Past, 1642 1833 The plan pursued by Miss Kimball has been to re print the texts exactly, copying, in cases where there are several editions of a book, from the earliest acces sible edition in which her extract is contained. The extracts are arranged in a chronological order, the date assigned to each being that of the year in which it was written rather than that in which it was published, if the two are known to differ. To each piece she has prefixed a short heading, intended to show who the author was, what was the point of view from which he looked at Rhode Island, or under what circumstances he wrote. The source whence the text is derived is scrupulously stated, for Miss Kimball has desired that the book should be, as I am sure it will be, of use and value to careful historical students, as well as a source of entertainment to those who love to read Rhode Island history with their feet on the fender.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 1022 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Providence County, Rhode Island, Vol. 1 of 2 And it is no matter of wonder to the editor of this work that he should have found some traces of prejudice against him in his work of reviewing the history of this locality on account of his not being identified with it by native or residuary interests. The fact that he has found so little of this prejudice, is to him but additional evidence of the liberality of sentiment which has grown up from the planting of Roger Williams. It has been said that the true soul of Providence history could not be faithfully portrayed by a historian not identified with it by personal ties. We believe the candid mind will recognize in this volume the refutation of such an assertion. We do not mean that our work 18 without defects. We only claim that it is a no less faithful representation than could have been expected even from a son of the soil. In common with all historic efforts it has its defects, all of which we freely submit to the gracious consideration of the candid critic.

Download or read book Collections of the Rhode Island Historical Society Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Rhode Island Historical Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Rhode Island Historical Society, Vol. 1 ON presenting the public with the second volume of the Collections of the rhode-island Historical Society, the Committee of Publication deem it proper, very briefly to state the reasons which have induced them to select the present work, for that purpose. It has been the wish of the Society, to publish, in chronological order, all those works of the early settlers in rhode-island, which contain mate rials relating to the history of the State, or which would furnish means fora just estimate of the characters and conduct of those who were most distin guished during its early periods. That course would have been adopted and steadily pursued, had the resources of the Society been sufficiently ample, or 'had a sufficient degree of interest in its general objects, been manifested by the public, to warrant such an undertaking. In the prosecution of that design, all the writings of Roger Williams which could answer either of the above purposes, would have been first republished, and have been followed in regular order, by those of his cotemporaries and successors. But with the limited degree of encouragement and assistance which the Society has as yet received, the course which it was so desirable to have pursued, and which would have added so materially to the value of the Collections as a whole, is known to be entirely impracticable. Such being the case, the Committee felt it to be their duty, to select from the mate rials at their command, some work, not only valuable in a historical point of view, but which, from its own peculiar character, would prob ably excite the most general interest. They were, therefore, happy to avail themselves of the labors of Mr. Staples, who had been for some time preparing for the press, an edition of Simplicity's Defence; and who, as the Committee were well aware, had been indefatigable in his researches for such materials as might, in the form of Notes and Appendixes, enhance the value of the work, by explaining the references and allusions which it con tains, or which could throw any light upon the biography, the characters or motives of the individuals who are mentioned in the Narrative. This task, Mr. Staples has performed, fully and impartially. He has given every au thentic means of information in his power, on both sides of the question.
