Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lake Erie and the Story of Commodore Perry The author and the publishers of the Great Lake Series feel that it is proper for them to set forth briefly the principles which have guided them in preparing these supplementary readers. Though we realize that our work needs to be inter esting, we do not wish it to be merely entertaining. These readers are school books and are not intended as a recrea tion for idle hours. Therefore we have been careful not to give too much space to stories of battles and skirmishes or to picturesque Indian legends. Because the reading lesson is too' often but slightly related to the rest of the curriculum, we have tried to supplement the work in other studies by laying stress upon the more obvious relations between geography, history and com merce. Exploration and trade in America have both romantic and practical aspects, and one or the other of these is sure to appeal to widea'wake children. The scenes visited in these books offer abundant material of both kinds - the chief difficulty has been to select.

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry and the War on the Lakes "We have met the enemy and they are ours." It is a national slogan, passed in perpetuity down through the generations that own allegiance to this iron-thewed, majestic young giant of the West, the United States of America. First learned in the schoolroom, it may lie dormant in some dark cranny of the brain in the after-time, when the boy has become a man and is battling with the world in search of pelf or power or whatever bubble he pursues; but let that phrase once more chance to fall beneath his eye, though he be gray and grim with the conflict, across the gap of years there sweeps the odd, remembered thrill, and he tingles to his finger-tips. For it is through the immortal inspiration of such traditions that the men of a nation hold in fee their birthright, a birthright that demands and receives the sacrifice of blood and brain and brawn for the simple, God-sent joy of giving them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, Vol. 1 of 2 The following work was undertaken at the request of Doctor Grant Champlin Perry, the eldest son of Commodore Perry, who, perceiving in the Naval History of Mr. J. F. Cooper an attempt to diminish that admiration with which the people of the United States have been accustomed to regard the memory of Perry, with a view of raising the standing of his second in command in the battle on Lake Erie, was desirous that a full account should be published of his father's life and services. This request having been willingly assented to, he accordingly forwarded to the writer the papers of his father, consisting almost entirely of public correspondence and log-books of various cruises, of which, however, the series was incomplete, and a vast mass of documents relating to the battle of Lake Erie, the whole forming rather materials for writing the history of that event than the life of Commodore Perry.
