This book was released on 2017-12-25 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Court Life of the Second French Empire Tuileries, and it' is not surprising, perhaps, that it should have occurred to him to pen a record of the last years which he spent there - the chequered years of the Second Empire. The Little Red Man does not claim to have witnessed personally everything which then occurred (he was never ubiquitous), but during his years of leisure he has cultivated a taste for reading, and, naturally enough, he has peeped into virtually everything that has been written about his old surroundings. He has come upon no little absurdity, no small crop of errors, garnered by outsiders, but he has also noted many interesting facts emanating from Court gentlemen and ladies whom be well remembers, though, as he himself usually remained invisible, they were not aware of his presence beside them. Briefly, piecing together his own personal recollections and those of the more reliable men and women of the time, and adding thereto a number of little-known facts and documents, and sketches of the notable people whom he once knew, he has written a book on the Tuileries Court as it was during the last years of his residence at the Palace. He has described the Court's organization, manners, and customs; he has endeavoured to depict both its magnificence and its darker side; he has dealt, neither too harshly nor too indulgently, he hopes, with its fu'volities; he has not forgotten to include some account of its sojourns at such places as Compiegne, Fontainebleau, and St. Cloud; and he has made a few excursions into the realm of politics in order that certain incidents may be the better understood. He here offers the result of his labours to the courteous critic and the indulgent reader; and as on most occasions his appearance in proprid persaud is, unfortunately, a foreboding of trouble, he sincerely trusts that he will never have reason to visit them otherwise than in this present guise of print and paper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of the Empire What is it that has awaked the British peoples from their dreamy isolation? Fast steamers, telegraph cables, cheap postage, popular educa tion: these have helped us to see and hear more of each other, and to realize how near we are even to the uttermost parts of the earth.. And we are being driven as well as drawn together. As we read the extraordinary charges fabricated against us by certain writers in the French, German and Russian press, charges that are not only read but believed by many in the land of their invention, we realize that dangerous things are sometimes done by deluded people. Instinctively we gather closer together, back to back and shoulder to shoulder, ready for an onslaught which sanity would forbid.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oneonta Memories and Sundry Personal Recollections of the Author The early settlers little thought they were forming the nucleus of a town which, within one hundred years, would maintain a population greater in extent than could be found at any other given point, within a section of the Empire State, extending from Kings ton, oh the east, to Cortland, on the west; from Amsterdam on the north, to Binghamton on the south. Oneonta village is Situated upon ground more or less hilly and The Plains a few miles west thereof has often been looked upon as a more natural place for a large town. In a purely physical sense, applied locally, this may be correct, but in considering the respective merits of the two points, in their relation ship to the general topography of the country sur rounding, a person of good judgment, if expressing an opinion, would decidedly answer in the negative.

Download or read book Recollections of My Nonexistence written by Rebecca Solnit and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An electric portrait of the artist as a young woman that asks how a writer finds her voice in a society that prefers women to be silent In Recollections of My Nonexistence, Rebecca Solnit describes her formation as a writer and as a feminist in 1980s San Francisco, in an atmosphere of gender violence on the street and throughout society and the exclusion of women from cultural arenas. She tells of being poor, hopeful, and adrift in the city that became her great teacher; of the small apartment that, when she was nineteen, became the home in which she transformed herself; of how punk rock gave form and voice to her own fury and explosive energy. Solnit recounts how she came to recognize the epidemic of violence against women around her, the street harassment that unsettled her, the trauma that changed her, and the authority figures who routinely disdained and disbelieved girls and women, including her. Looking back, she sees all these as consequences of the voicelessness that was and still is the ordinary condition of women, and how she contended with that while becoming a writer and a public voice for women's rights. She explores the forces that liberated her as a person and as a writer--books themselves, the gay men around her who offered other visions of what gender, family, and joy could be, and her eventual arrival in the spacious landscapes and overlooked conflicts of the American West. These influences taught her how to write in the way she has ever since, and gave her a voice that has resonated with and empowered many others.
Download or read book Personal Recollections and Observations of General Nelson A Miles Embracing a Brief View of the Civil War Or From New England to the Golden Gate and the Story of His Indian Campaigns with Comments on the Exploration Development and Progress of Our Great Western Empire written by Nelson A. Miles and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1992-04-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1897, five years after he won the Medal of Honor, General Nelson A. Miles published his memoirs, often cited and now made widely available in this two-volume Bison Book edition. While relating his own colorful adventures, General Miles also ranges over time and space, taking into account fur traders, trail blazers, gold seekers, and missionaries. The first volume described his service in the Civil War and his campaigns against the Indians on the northern plains. Volume 2 follows General Miles to Washington Territory, where he com-mands the Department of Columbia, and finally to the Southwest, where he succeeds General George Crook in directing the fight against the Apaches. The pursuit of Geronimo is one of the many subjects illustrated here by Frederic Remington. In his introduction to the second volume Robert Wooster notes the importance of this memoir as a document on the Indian wars, extremely revealing of the character of a difficult but competent general.
