Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Americans Happily his conception of what distinction and dignity included for a man like himself took in a great deal; nearly everything, in fact, except tolerance and a sense of humour. He had been gifted with a robust frame which he had been at pains to break to manly accomplishments: he could ride and shoot, fence, box, wrestle, and swim with proficiency; he openly despised any man not a consumptive who could not; and these consumptive he despised, instinctively, in secret. He had inherited a strong, dull intelligence in which he never found anything which he had not first put there; but from his childhood good masters had been offered him; he had spent a certain number of hours every day in adding to the stock of notions they had given him, and it was not his habit to forget what he had once learned. Neither was it his habit to unlearn anything: what had once obtained lodgment in his head formed an insuperable obstacle to the passage of everything not consistent with it; and the considerable library he had collected at Estcourt served mainly to dress out his preconceptions in the foppery of scholarship. He had been a young buck in his day, looking at himself seriously in the glass. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New America Some studies of past times, which have long occupied my pen, led me last summer to the James River and to Plymouth Rock. I'went out in search of an old world, and found a new one. East, west, north, and south, I met with new ideas, new purposes, new methods: in short, with a New America. The men who planted these Free States - doing the noblest work that England has achieved in history - were spurred into their course by two great passions; a large love ofl Liberty; a deep sense of Religion; and, in our Great Plantation, liberty and religion exercise a power over the forms of social' and do mestic life unknown at home. In the heart of solid societies and conservative churches we find the most singular doctrines, the most audacious experiments; and it is only after seeing what kind of forces are at work within them, that we can adequately admire the strength of these societies and churches.

Download or read book The Americans Classic Reprint written by Hugo Munsterberg and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Americans To outline American life for readers beyond the sea is one thing; to appear before an American audience and to tell them solemnly that there is a Republican and a Democratic party, and that there are troubles between capital and labour, is quite another thing. To inform my German countrymen about America may be to fill a long-felt want; but, as a German, to inform the Ameri cans on matters which they knew before they were born seems, indeed, worse than superfluous. When I was urged, on so many sides, to bring my Americans before the Americans, it was, therefore, clear to me from the outset that I ought not to do it myself under any circumstances. If I had translated the book myself, it would have become simply an Eng lish book, written in English by the author and yet its only pos sible right to existence must lie in its reflected character, in its hav ing been written for others, in its coming back to the New World from the Old. My friend, Dr. Holt, who has been for years my assistant in the Harvard Psychological Laboratory, has assisted, therefore, in this social psychological experiment, and translated the book from the German edition.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through the Second Gate: Baptists in Action Among New Americans The Outer Gateway to America has swung wide and free and through it thirty million Of human folks have passed in the last one hundred years. Eager, expectant, from everywhere they came with high hopes and bright dreams. TO enter was Heaven. TO be turned back meant black despair. But this gate is an Iron Gate. It admits these newcomers to industrial America, to her mills and mines, her grind and grime, to her sub-american slums and her ugly foreign colonies. Mutterings and rumblings Of subterranean discontent and nu rest portend danger and menace to America. Back through this gate have turned millions, dis illusioned Of their bright dreams, bereft Of their high hopes, with enthusiasm and health left be hind ih what they had once spoken Of as the Promised Land.

It may be the history of Florence under the Medici, that of Spain under Ferdinand and Isabel, or perhaps that of the French Revolution; and you feel so much entranced by the events, more thrilling than any novel, flowing tumultuously into the channels of your soul that a wave of envy surges in your heart: 'i wish I had lived in those wonderful times!' If it has happened to you, take heart. I am sure that future readers, when tossed about by the emotions which they are certain to feel when reading the history of our own age, will often sigh with envy: 'i wish I had lived in those wonderful times!'

Download or read book English for New Americans Classic Reprint written by Wilbur Stanwood Field and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-04 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English for New Americans The purpose of the authors has been to prepare lessons which shall meet the difficulties mentioned above. The vocabulary of Parts I, II, and III is sufficient to allow a reasonable facility of expression, yet the number of words is so small that con fusion in the pupil's mind is avoided. After mastering this basal vocabulary through the constant repetition provided in these lessons, the pupil is able to understand and to acquire new words with remarkable rapidity. With this in mind additional words and supplementary lessons are provided in Part IV. At the end of the book the English vocabulary used in the lessons has been translated into Armenian, Greek, Italian, Lithuanian, Polish, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Syrian (arabic), and Yiddish. Teachers will find this particularly helpful in giving instruction to those who can read their native language. The vocabularies should also be of much assistance to pupils when studying without the aid of an instructor.

Download or read book The Book of Unknown Americans written by Cristina Henríquez and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning novel of hopes and dreams, guilt and love—a book that offers a resonant new definition of what it means to be American and "illuminates the lives behind the current debates about Latino immigration" (The New York Times Book Review). When fifteen-year-old Maribel Rivera sustains a terrible injury, the Riveras leave behind a comfortable life in Mexico and risk everything to come to the United States so that Maribel can have the care she needs. Once they arrive, it’s not long before Maribel attracts the attention of Mayor Toro, the son of one of their new neighbors, who sees a kindred spirit in this beautiful, damaged outsider. Their love story sets in motion events that will have profound repercussions for everyone involved. Here Henríquez seamlessly interweaves the story of these star-crossed lovers, and of the Rivera and Toro families, with the testimonials of men and women who have come to the United States from all over Latin America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Americans All: Stories of American Life of to-Day In the years before the war, when we had more time for light pursuits, a favorite sport of reviewers was to hunt for the Great American Novel. They gave tongue here and there, and pursued the quarry with great excitement in various dirce tions, now north, now south, now west, and the inevitable disappointment at the end of the chase never deterred them from starting off on a fresh scent next day. But in spite of all the frenzied pursuit, the game sought, the Great American Novel, was never captured. Will it ever be captured? The thing they sought was a book that would be so broad, so typical, so true that it would stand as the adequate expres sion in fiction of American life. Did these tireless hunters ever stop to ask themselves, what is the Great French Novel? What is the Great English Novel? And if neither of these nations has produced a single book which embodies their national life, why should we expect that our life, so much more diverse in its elements, so multifarious in its aspects, could ever be summed up within the covers of a single book?

Download or read book Stories of Great Americans written by Edward Eggleston and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Great Americans: For Little Americans The primary aim of this book is to furnish the little learner reading matter that will excite his attention and give him pleasure, and thus make lighter the difficult task of learning to read. The ruggedness of this task has often been increased by the use of disconnected sentences, or lessons as dry and uninteresting as finger exercises on the piano. It is a sign of promise that the demand for reading matter of interest to the child has come from teachers. I have endeavored to meet this requirement in the following stories. As far as possible the words chosen have been such as are not difficult to the little reader, either from their length or their unfamiliarity. The sentences and paragraphs are short. Learning to read is like climbing a steep hill, and it is a great relief to the panting child to find frequent breathing places. It is one of the purposes of these stories to make the mind of the pupil familiar with some of the leading figures in the history of our country by means of personal anecdote. Some of the stories are those that every American child ought to know, because they have become a kind of national folklore. Such, for example, are "Putnam and the Wolf" and the story of "Franklin's Whistle." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
