CHAPTER XXIII "the Rear-guard Of The Revolution" At the same time that frontiersmen were helping the cause of the sea-board colonies, they were engaged upon an enterprise daring and strenuous enough to have, of itself, furnished an outiet for less plentiful energies. It gives one a fresh conception of the strength of this young giant of the West when one sees the people of the East building a nation, raising an army, fighting a revolution; and knows that at the same time, to the westward, the same nationality was passing the barrier of the wilderness, struggling with stealthy Indians and British soldiers, and conquering from both their possessions in the Mississippi Valley. Among these pioneers of Kentucky and Tennessee, these pathfinders of the Wilderness Trace, and backwoodsmen led by Clark into " the Illinois country," there were many Germans. In fact, it would be strange were it otherwise, for "the West" of those days was reached through the Shenandoah Valley, and its hunters, pioneers, and permanent settlers came from the Valley of Virginia and the mountains of the Carolinas--both sections containing many men of Teutonic race. Among the men who early wandered over Kentucky and Tennessee, before any permanent settlement was attempted, we find the names of George Jager, Michael Stoner, Caspar Mansker, Isaac and Abram Hite, and John and Abraham Bowman. It was Jager who first fired the imagination of Simon Kenton by a description of the wonderfully rich country of " the cane brakes'--Kentucky.

Download or read book Germany and Its West African Colonies written by Wazi Apoh and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2013 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: West African history is usually seen as mainly influenced by English or French colonialism. There is a new interest in German colonialism, but most research is done in European archives and with a European point-of-view. This book explores German colonial exploits and their consequences in Ghana, Togo, and Cameroon, mostly from an African point-of-view. By means of research on sites of the colonial hinterland and the agency of entangled people, the book reveals the simmering impact of the past encounters on indigenous religious, cultural, political, and socio-economic developments in West Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German Colonial Experience provides readers with an understanding of how the Germans gained, explored, pacified, ruled, and exploited their colonies prior to their loss in World War I. Knoll and Hiery show how Africans, Chinese, and Pacific Islanders reacted to German rule, how the Germans ran the daily affairs of government, their vision for the colonized peoples, and how the colonizers and the colonized perceived one another. In other words, how did German colonial rule actually work? This book intensely scrutinizes colonial documents, most of them in German script, from archives not only in Germany, but also from places such as Australia, New Guinea, and Samoa. Many of these documents have never previously been published, even in the original German.
