DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Two Gentlemen of Virginia: A Novel of the Old Regime in the Old Dominion In this novel I have endeavored to fulfil one of the chief functions of history in the modern conception of historical writing. Incidentally to the telling of a love story, I have sought to present a faithful picture of the life of the time and region of which I have written; to set forth its manners, habits and conditions with accuracy and in detail to por tray the character of the people, to show what were their ideals and their standards, and to present them as they were to readers of a later and far less picturesque time. In aid of this purpose I have mentioned many details of custom and condition which may seem trivial in themselves, but which are imperatively necessary to the verisimilitude of the picture.

Thus, while no hard-and - fast rule has been followed, and while the writer's first book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Virginia, the Vivandiere, under an order superior to my own, quartered with my com mand; and that she might be constantly nu der such protection as I could afford her, she slept within my tent, which I divided into two apartments by a piece of canvas that was stretched entirely across the centre and as a further protection, and to avoid all possibility of scandal, I permitted a negress - an intelligent contraband woman - Aunt Clemmy, as she was invariably called - to quarter with her. Aunt Clemmy was an indispensable per somage about the camp, for she contrived, with her own hands, to do the washing for all the officers of our regiment, and appar ently with no extraordinary exertion.

The Rise and Fall of the American Whig Party

ISBN-13: 0199830894
DOWNLOAD EBOOKHere, Michael F. Holt gives us the only comprehensive history of the Whigs ever written. He offers a panoramic account of the tumultuous antebellum period, a time when a flurry of parties and larger-than-life politicians--Andrew Jackson, John C. Calhoun, Martin Van Buren, and Henry Clay--struggled for control as the U.S. inched towards secession. It was an era when Americans were passionately involved in politics, when local concerns drove national policy, and when momentous political events--like the Annexation of Texas and the Kansas-Nebraska Act--rocked the country. Amid this contentious political activity, the Whig Party continuously strove to unite North and South, emerging as the nation's last great hope to prevent secession.
