Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Long Portage There were streaks of snow on some of them, for win ter threatened to close in unusually early. With a lowering sky overhead and the daylight beginning to fade, it was a desolate picture; one into which the lonely figure of the man in tattered deerskin jacket and shapeless hat somehow fitted. His attire matched the gray-white coloring of rock and boulder; his spare form and agile movements, together with the intentness of his bronzed face and the steadiness of his eyes, hinted at the quickness of observation, the stub born endurance, and the tireless activity, by which alone life can be maintained in the savage North. He had the alertness of the wild creatures of the waste; and it was needed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Portage Path The Primitive Cuyahoga Valley There are very many vallies, vallies of renown. But the Cuyahoga valley was fairer than these. And greener its grasses and taller its trees 'Ere the sound of the ax in the forest had rung, Or the mower his scythe in the meadows had swung. I n their sheltered repose looking out from the wood, The bark-builded wigwams of the Ottawas stood: There glided the corn dance, the council-fire shone. And against the red war-post the hatchet was thrown. There the old smoked in silence their pipe, and the young To the pike and the white perch their baited lines flung! There the boy shaped his arrows, and there the shy maid Wove her many-hued baskets and bright wampum braid. 0 stream of Hopocan! if answer of thine Could raise from thy waters to question of mine, Methinks through the din of thy thronged banks a moan Of sorrow would swell for the days that are gone. Not for thee, dull jar of the loom and the wheel. The gliding of shuttles, the ringing of steel: But that old voice of water, of bird and of breeze. The dip of the wild fowl, the rustling of trees.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... Portage Path The Center Of Indian Communication Long before Lake Erie was located on the map of the world, or the La Belle Riviere known to the geographers of Europe, many decades before the Argonauts of civilization had penetrated westward beyond the St Lawrence, great aboriginal highways existed connecting the distant waters of the large lakes with the great salt sea, and with the mighty Mississippi, the father of all living rivers on the wild American continent. Journey with us to that distant, forest-clad land, and pass over with us some of these ancient trails that push their winding, tortuous way by the banks of sedgy lakes, across wide and swift rivers, or else following the early conformation of the shore line of the immense fresh water lakes, or striking out into the heart of the wilderness for hundreds of miles, turning, twisting but: ever moving forward to a known objective point without loss of time. These were the highways of that restless, adventurous, migratory race or races which held tha country by virtue of original possession. Along these routes they came with swift and tireless feet, bent, either upon the delights of the chase, or upon the much-to-be-desired war of the race. W ar brought distinction, made mighty chiefs, furnished an exercise for their naturally cruel instincts, brought plunder and pelf and profit; abounded in change of scene, exciting episodes and startling features. Its climaxes were not always pleasant or desirable, but they were accepted with the stoic philosophy of the red man as the fortune of war. Along these lengthening trails came and went these feather-bedecked, sinister-painted, wild men of the forest. Swiftly, surely, without noise or bluster, these hyenas of the wilderness sped on their...

Download or read book Greek Prose Composition Classic Reprint written by Henry Carr Pearson and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.
