Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes in Gray To the children and grandchildren of the men who wore the gray this book is dedicated. It is only right that the children of the Southland know the full meaning of their birthright. No one can object that the truth be told them. It is unjust to the Southland and to those who followed the Stars and Bars to death and to glory not to let the true history of the years 1861 to 1865 be known. If our children are left in ignorance as to this history they may grow up feeling that they have the blood of traitors in their veins. Nothing will stir the blood of our sons to become true and noble men more than to know the history of such men as Lee "whose trust was ever in the God of battles, of Jackson who never fought before he prayed, of the Southern woman who nursed the sick soldier, who struggled at home while husbands and fathers fought, who gave their dearest men to the 'cause, ' yet never wavered in their loyalty to it."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy in Gray: A Story of the War This book has been written for the young people who are interested in the story of the stirring scenes through which their fathers passed. It is needless to say that it is not a true record of personal life; it is no more history than is Robinson Crusoe or the Pilgrim's Progress. The facts stated as historic are to be relied upon. Many of these came under my own eye, when I went over the ground which Roger speaks of in his campaign. The pictures of Georgia life are, I think, correctly drawn, and ought not to fade out entirely.

Download or read book The Gray Book Classic Reprint written by Sons of Confederate Veterans and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gray Book The reasons for the Gray Book are purely defensive and on behalf of the truth of history, and the call for this publication comes from attacks, past, present and continuing, upon the history, people and institutions of this Southern section of our united country. These attacks and untruthful presentations of so called history demand refutation, for the South cannot surrender its birthright and we pray the day may never dawn when it will be willing to abandon the truth in a cowardly or sluggish spirit of pacifism. Nor do we care to see the day come when "The lie, its work well done, shall rot, Truth is strong and will prevail, When none shall care if it prevail or not." During the Great War, when the South and all other parts of our country were straining every nerve to defeat a common foe, strange and unbelievable as it may seem at such a time of crisis, there was a most remarkable flood of misrepresentation, false analogy, and distorted historical statements concerning our American history as it particularly relates to the Southern people. Ignorance, as well as deliberate distortion of facts, contributed to this unfortunate and ill-timed display. A distinguished New Englander writing to a prominent officer of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, stated, "so far as New England is concerned, prejudice is still deep," and those who keep abreast of things know that this state of affairs is not confined to that section. We have the deliberate statement of a well-known writer and literary worker, who knows whereof he speaks, that "much atrocious sectionalism" tries to get into "publications which will have a very wide circulation in a patriotic capacity.' Innumerable examples are on file and could be quoted but no one who reads at all could have failed to note this mass of unfair and untruthful statements which for years has filled newspapers, magazines and periodicals of the North. Nor has this defamation ceased with the end of the Great War - it still goes on, unabated, and there is a constant and strong stream of misrepresentation and false historical statement flowing from the North. Moreover, this constant reiteration of misstatement and falsehood has had the effect of totally misleading and blinding to the truth of our country's history foreigners who would naturally be unbiased and neutral. This was abundantly proven by Lloyd George's remarkable cable to the New York Times on the occasion of Lincoln's birthday during the last year of the Great War, "we are fighting the same battle which your countrymen fought under Lincoln's leadership fifty years ago. Lincoln did not shrink from vindicating both union and freedom by the terrible instrument of war." It is scarcely necessary to call attention to the totally untrue inferences to be drawn from this utterance, addressed to the world at large by England's leading statesman. And in France when Leon Buorgeoise cited the trial and execution of Major Wirz as a legal precedent for the trial of the German Kaiser by the Allies, he exhibited the same total misconception of the truth of our history, misled of course by years of false Northern teaching of our country's affairs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Grey World A Children's hospital is not a bad place to die in: failing forest or hilltop, perhaps, one may not easily find a better. It is clean and airy, and there are few opportunities for the hysterical confusion of leave-taking which gives a touch of horror and bewilderment to the greater dignities of a private decease. The Author of the Human Comedy, one fancies, did not pay much attention to our exits and our entrances. They seldom strike the imagination; yet, from the spectators point of view, they are not the least strange or important details of the play. On October the 15th in the year 1878, a small boy lay in the Princess Ward of S. Nicholas' Infirmary, dying of typhoid fever.

Download or read book The Bride s Hero Classic Reprint written by M. P. Revere and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bride's Hero Both volumes are here in my writing-desk. I was looking them over a little before beginning this. I never called my book a diary; one hears so much fun being made of girls who keep diaries. But then, most girls have some one to whom they can go and tell their troubles, or the fun they have, or to ask advice. I have nobody at all, for any one who knows Aunt Dora would know I could n't say things I really care for in my heart to her. My first volume I called Letters to my Darling Mother. I wonder what Aunt Dora would say if she saw that inscription? She would think something was very wrong with my head. Oh, how glad I am she '11 never know about my books! How glad I am that I shan't really have to hear her say anything about them! For it's hopeless arguing with Aunt Dora. You begin a subject, and she snaps you up with a snubby sort of answer that finishes the matter and you at the same time, making you feel a Worm. Only, of course, she hardly ever does it to Marguerite, or to new acquaintances; only to people she is tired of, and impatient with, like me. I used to feel, somehow, as if my mother might come back and read those letters of mine to her, maybe while I was asleep. I used always to imagine myself asking her advice about things, and then I 'd dream that she told me what I ought to do, or comforted me when I was miserable. I never had time to know my mother very well, or she me, in this world because she died before I was three. But sometimes, m flashes, it seems as if I an remember her. I distinctly see a beautiful young face, close to mine, bending over me when I 'm in bed. It is a small oval face, without much color, and it has a sweet, curved mouth, the upper lip shaped like a how. The eyes are gray, the color of slate, with golden brown spots round the pupils; and they look at me from under long, dark lashes that curl up softly. I can see her little, delicate nose, with sensitive nostrils, and her brown hair parted in the middle, and spraying into what I like to call love locks over her forehead. It 's a pretty word, and one finds it in poetry or old fashioned stories about sweet heroines of other times; so it seems to suit my mother, for I think of her as being rather old-fashioned, or, anyhow, not hard and brilliant like the mothers of a great many girls I know especially not at all like Aunt Dora, who says I am old-fashioned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robin Gray, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel Wind and rain beat upon him, and the torrent rushed thundering down the glen. But neither wind nor rain could cool the fever Of his brain; and not all the thunder Of the torrent could deaden the sound Of the demon voices that were ringing and shrieking in his ear - Askaig, James Falcon. The legend of the kelpie was verified to him this night, and the eerie voice rose above the fury Of the spate, wailing the words Askaig, James Falcon. Brown Jock stretched to the road with glaring eyes that seemed to pierce the deep ehing darkness. Down from the hills rushed countless streamlets, into which the snow had thawed, and down poured the rain steadily, - all swelling the torrent in the glen. The hills rose like broad towers of gloom, and the black clouds hung heavily overhead as if ready to fall and crush horse and rider to the earth. He was insensible to everything save that eerie voice always shrieking in his ears and goading him to desperation; and the horse sped recklessly up steep and down slope as if inspired with something of its rider's frenzy. As they attained the highest point Of the road where it suddenly dipped down to the ford, the rider glanced across the black chasm and on the opposite height Observed a feeble light in the window of Askaig. At the same moment a vivid ash Of lightning pierced the black clouds and illumed the hill tops, followed instantly by a deafening peal of thunder that Shook the earth and echoed again along the hills. The horse came to a dead stand, Sinking back on its haunches and quivering with fright. Robin struck it with his heels, and the animal suddenly dashed down the steep with new fury and into the torrent.
