Book excerpt: Excerpt from Materials for a History of the Wither Family The Wither family may not have produced any, or many, world-famous men and women; but it is not without just pride that its representatives to-day look back to forbears of distinction in all branches of Church and State, of literature, law and commerce; and especially to a long succession of country squires living on their estates, good old English gentlemen, serving their country as magistrates, their parish as benefactors, honoured by their neighbours, and beloved by the poor. As the sheets were going through the press the author of this family history experienced an irreparable loss in the death, at the early age of eighteen, at Winchester College, of his only surviving son. This fact may be a sufficient excuse for some errors in correcting proofs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Campbell Family All races of men seem to have an intuitive feeling that it is a subject of legitimate pride to be one of a clan or family whose name in written large in past history and present affairs. Everybody likes to know something about his forefathers, and to be able to tell to his children the tales or stories about their ancestors, which he himself has heard from his parents. The commandment Honor thy father and thy mother is good and sufficient authority for that feeling of reverence which is so generally shown towards a line of honorable ancestry. The history of the family was a matter of much importance to the Greeks; it was the custom of the early Roman to place in the aula of his house the images of the illustrious men of his family; the Chinese go so far as to magnify such reverence into ancestor worship, and even the red Indian of our own Northwest recorded the traditions of his ancestors on the totem of his tribe. Well, then, may the story of the chivalry, courage and even lawlessness (so often the mate of courage) of their forefathers find a responsive echo in the hearts of Campbells of the present generation, who come of ane house and are of ane surname, notwithstanding this lang time bygane."

Download or read book A Narrative History of the Harding Family written by Anne Katherine Holt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Narrative History of the Harding Family: With Illustrations This narrative was commenced in 1899, out of love for and in the interest of the little cousins, Allan Cope Harding and Barstow Harding Miller, so that wherever the word your appears it refers to them. As often happens in writing such little histories, this has become more extensive than originally intended, until it includes each and every member of our American line. In the book of Royal Descent compiled by Miss T. E. Sharpe of England, the descent is brought down to the American branch, and the object of this book is to continue that descent in a narrative form; to relate any interesting incidents of people or history of places mentioned in the former book, thus bringing those characters of bygone centuries into closer relationship with the present genera tion; and to give a little explanation and description of the ancestral pictures included in the illustrations of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller • Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize • An Oprah's Book Club Selection “Powerful . . . [Kingsolver] has with infinitely steady hands worked the prickly threads of religion, politics, race, sin and redemption into a thing of terrible beauty.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review The Poisonwood Bible, now celebrating its 25th anniversary, established Barbara Kingsolver as one of the most thoughtful and daring of modern writers. Taking its place alongside the classic works of postcolonial literature, it is a suspenseful epic of one family's tragic undoing and remarkable reconstruction over the course of three decades in Africa. The story is told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce, evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in 1959. They carry with them everything they believe they will need from home, but soon find that all of it—from garden seeds to Scripture—is calamitously transformed on African soil. The novel is set against one of the most dramatic political chronicles of the twentieth century: the Congo's fight for independence from Belgium, the murder of its first elected prime minister, the CIA coup to install his replacement, and the insidious progress of a world economic order that robs the fledgling African nation of its autonomy. Against this backdrop, Orleanna Price reconstructs the story of her evangelist husband's part in the Western assault on Africa, a tale indelibly darkened by her own losses and unanswerable questions about her own culpability. Also narrating the story, by turns, are her four daughters—the teenaged Rachel; adolescent twins Leah and Adah; and Ruth May, a prescient five-year-old. These sharply observant girls, who arrive in the Congo with racial preconceptions forged in 1950s Georgia, will be marked in surprisingly different ways by their father's intractable mission, and by Africa itself. Ultimately each must strike her own separate path to salvation. Their passionately intertwined stories become a compelling exploration of moral risk and personal responsibility.
Download or read book A Patriot s History of the United States written by Larry Schweikart and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-12-29 with total page 1350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.
