DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Beginnings of Literary Culture in the Ohio Valley: Historical and Biographical Sketches More than twenty years ago, in preparing for publication a series of articles on the libraries of Cincinnati, the writer had occasion to glance through a good many books of western origin, and to examine files of the earliest newspapers and magazines issued in the Central States. This incidental rummage through the alcoves of a dozen dusty libraries led to further investigation, and awakened curiosity to study the intellectual agencies which created the first literary institutions in the Ohio Valley. Various items of information concerning local writers and writings, from print and manuscript, and from the stored memory of persons acquainted with the general subject, furnished a stock of material which seemed worth preserving. A certain historical value attaches to memoranda derived from interviews with literary veterans whose minds are rich in authentic reminiscences of "The days when we were pioneers." Data obtained from the sources mentioned supplied the substance of a course of lectures on Western Poets and Poetry, delivered in College Hall, Cincinnati, in the winter of 1881, and afforded topics for occasional contributions to the Commercial Gazette, the Magazine of Western History, and the Ohio Historical and Archaeological Quarterly, in the years 1886-7.
