Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Virginians, Vol. 3 The room into which George was introduced was a small apartment which went by the name of Mr; Amos's office, and where, by a gutter ing candle, and talking to the bailiff, sat a stout gentleman in a cloak and a laced hat. The young porter carried his candle, too, pre ceding Mr. George, so there was a sufficiency of light in the apart ment. We are not angry any more, Harry! Says the stout gentleman, in a cheery voice, getting up and advancing with an outstretched hand to the new comer. Thank God, my boy! Mr. Amos here says, there will be no difficulty about James and me being your bail, and we will do your business by breakfast time in the morning. Why Angels and ministers of grace! Who are you he started back as the other had hold of his hand. But the stranger grasped it only the more strongly. God bless you, sir he said, I know who you are. You must be Colonel Lambert, of whose kindness to him my poor Harry wrote. And I am the brother whom you have heard of, sir; and who was left for dead in Mr. Braddock's action; and came to life again after eighteen months amongst the French and live to thank God and thank you for your kindness to my Harry, continued the lad with a faltering vorce.

Download or read book Virginians and Their Histories written by Brent Tarter and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Histories of Virginia have traditionally traced the same significant but narrow lines, overlooking whole swathes of human experience crucial to an understanding of the commonwealth. With Virginians and Their Histories, Brent Tarter presents a fresh, new interpretive narrative that incorporates the experiences of all residents of Virginia from the earliest times to the first decades of the twenty-first century, affording readers the most comprehensive and wide-ranging account of Virginia’s story. Tarter draws on primary resources for every decade of the Old Dominion's English-language history, as well as a wealth of recent scholarship that illuminates in new ways how demographic changes, economic growth, social and cultural changes, and religious sensibilities and gender relationships have affected the manner in which Virginians have lived. Virginians and Their Histories interweaves the experiences of Virginians of different racial and ethnic backgrounds and classes, representing a variety of eras and regions, to understand what they separately and jointly created, and how they responded to economic, political, and social changes on a national and even global level. That large context is essential for properly understanding the influences of Virginians on, and the responses of Virginians to, the constantly changing world in which they have lived. This groundbreaking work of scholarship—generously illustrated and engagingly written—will become the definitive account for general readers and all students of Virginia’s diverse and vibrant history.

We come from widely separated portions of the good Old State which, wide as she is, and heavily burdened as she long has been, is yet none too wide nor too heavily burdened to send her daughters to this, her fountain head of intel lectual life, in even greater numbers would she but build to receive them.

Download or read book The Two Virginias Genesis of Old and New a Romance of American History written by Granville Davisson Hall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Two Virginias; Genesis of Old and New, a Romance of American History: State Sovereignty, Phantom of a Stupendous Folly Why was The Two Virginias written? Altruism. The writer thought it might profit the Old Virginians of the present day to be reminded of some of the things their distinguished forbears did, and some they omitted, in the long ago in which they feel so just a pride. Besides, he himself, like the Kaiser, wanted a place in the sun. Such an aspiration is but the longing of nature - the true reptilian instinct. The first thing the snakes do when they come out of cold storage in the Spring, is to try for the sunny side of a rock. The instinct is as old as Eden, and as modern as the submarine. It was my fortune - or misfortune - to get mixed up with the Virginia ruction at the beginning of the civil war, in 1861; and I have grown old and blind (as George Washington once said) trying to elucidate the merits and demerits of this ancient discord in the Virginia household. The elder of the Two is my original mother; the younger who claimed my allegiance in 1863, is my really and truly mother. If my story is well told, it will doubtless appear that I am partial to the younger matron. The old mother she being also the Mother of Presidents - Washington to Wilson - seems to me now more like a step-grandmother, for whom I have the utmost respect but cannot pretend any affection. Indeed, as far back as I can remember anything political, I never did quite like the way the old lady kept the house or ran the farm, nor the kind of people she had around the place. The recent probate in the United States Supreme Court of the Old Grandmother's will - bequeathing to her daughter one-third of her beautiful I owe you's - has dragged both, once more, into the lime-light; and it may be what I have herein chronicled about their wrangles long ago, across the back fence, will be not untimely, whatever else it may be.
