Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Lincoln Leaders of Men When they are dead, we heap the laurels high Above them, where indifferent they lie; We join their deeds to unaccustomed praise And crown with garlands of immortal bays Whom, living, we but thought to crucify. As mountains seem less glorious, viewed too nigh, So often do the great whom we decry Gigantic loom to our astonished gaze, When they are dead. For, shamed by largeness, littlenesses die; And, partisan and narrow hates put by, We shrine our heroes for the future days, And to atone our ignorant delays With fond and emulous devotion try, When they are dead!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lincoln Mr. Lincoln at once began to clear the timber from his land. This was a very dangerous task because of the Indians. About two years went by when one day as Mr. Lincoln was in his clearing with little Tom, only six years old, an Indian crept up behind some brush and killed the father. He then leaped out and seized the little boy and started off with him. Two of the older Lincoln boys were working near and hur ried to the rescue. One of them shot the In dian and saved his little brother. The death of the father was a very serious matter to a poor family left in a new country. Little Tom seems to have had to shift for him self and get his living as best he could. And only a living it was, for schooling he had none. All the writing he could do was to barely scrawl his name, but although he was ignorant and poor, he was honest and very well thought of by his neighbors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oft-Told Tales of Lincoln More than three thousand volumes have been written about the life and work of Abraham Lincoln. He has taken, in our modern world, the place of the heroes of ancient epics and legends: he is our Beowulf, our Charlemagne, our King Arthur; in a word, he is our national hero. So much has been written that the folly of attempting a new, or even an original interpretation of the old, is evident. We make no such pretense, but instead gratefully acknowledge indebtedness to many sources from which we have taken those authentic episodes in the childhood and youth of Abra ham Lincoln, which foreshadowed his con duct during the dark days of the Civil War. We have tried to trace, in the boy Lincoln, those latent characteristics whio h whendeveloped gave us the greatest leader and man our country has known.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boyhood of Lincoln A great many years ago a brave man found his way through a gap in the mountains. He stood on the hills and looked over the lovely land of Kentucky. There were deep forests and Open grassy places. Bears and wild turkeys and all kinds of game were in the woods. Great herds of buffalo roamed over the hills. It all looked so peaceful and beautiful that it seemed to be prepared by the hand of God for the use of man. But Indians went on the warpath through those beautiful forests. They lay in wait along the streams with tomahawks ready, for any white men who might come to their favorite hunting ground. The scalps of many brave hunters hung from their belts. One never knew what bush or tree might hide a. Painted savage.

Download or read book Three Not so ordinary Joes written by Julie Hedgepeth Williams and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the more eccentric figures in the antebellum South was Joseph Addison Turner, born to the plantation and trained to run one. All he really wanted to do, though, was to be a famous writer--and to be the founder of Southern literature. He tried and failed and tried and failed at publishing magazines, poems, books, articles, journals, all while halfheartedly running a plantation. When the Civil War broke out, he no longer had access to New York publishers, and in his frustration it dawned on him that he could throw a newspaper press into an outbuilding on his Georgia plantation. Furthermore, his newspaper would be modeled on The Spectator, the literary newspaper of the early 1700s by Joseph Addison, for whom Turner was named. The Spectator in its day, and 150 years later in Turner's day, was considered high literature. Turner carefully copied Addison's style and philosophy--and it worked His newspaper, The Countryman--the only newspaper ever published on a plantation--was one of the most widely read in the Confederacy. Following Addison's lead, Turner suggested that slaves should be treated well, lauded the contributions of women, and featured humorous copy. And, of course, his paper celebrated Southern culture and creativity. As Turner urged in The Countryman, the South could never be a great nation if all it did was fight. It needed art--it needed literature And he, J. A. Turner himself, would lead the way. The Civil War, however, didn't go as Turner had hoped. Sherman's army marched through and took Turner's world with it. His newspaper collapsed. He died a few years after the war ended, thinking he had failed to start Southern literature. However, he was wrong. The Countryman's teenage printer's devil was Joel Chandler Harris, who grew up to write the first wildly popular Southern literature, the Uncle Remus tales. Turner had taken in the illegitimate, ill-educated Harris and had turned him into a writer. And while Harris worked for the plantation newspaper, he joined Turner's children at dusk in the slave cabins, listening to the fantastical animal stories the Negroes told. Young Harris recognized the tales' subversive theme of the downtrodden outwitting the powerful. Years later as a newspaperman, he was asked to write a column in the Negro dialect, and he reached back to his days at The Countryman for the slaves' narratives. The stories enthralled readers in the South--but also in the North, particularly Theodore Roosevelt. The Uncle Remus stories were hailed as the reconciler between North and South, and they directly influenced Mark Twain, Rudyard Kipling, and Beatrix Potter. Most importantly, Uncle Remus knocked New England off its perch as the focus of American belles-lettres and made Southern literature the primary national focus. So, ultimately, Joseph Addison Turner really did found Southern literature--with the help of two other not-so-ordinary Joes, Joseph Addison and Joel Chandler Harris. Julie Hedgepeth Williams tells their story.
