Excerpt from Heroes of Progress: Stories of Sucessful AmericansThis book is planned to give as general a view of recent American achievement as possible without becoming of unwieldy size. Invention, discovery and exploration, art, music, philanthropy, kindness to animals, industrial success, aviation, pure and applied science, are all represented. To select the names of the men and women of achievement has not been easy. Some thirty have been carefully chosen with the aim of introducing those whose work reached its consummation within the last half-century; but in a few instances men have been included whose inventions have been greatly developed in recent years, even though by other hands.In making the selection a number of children's librarians have been consulted, with the wish to include as many as possible of the people about whom children come to them for information. There is seldom difficulty in finding biographies of authors, soldiers, or statesmen. For this reason such names have been omitted from this book.The qualities which led these men and women to success have been brought well to the front; and while financial rewards have often been mentioned, success is reckoned in value to the world, rather than in money acquired by the individual.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A Short History of America's Literature: With Selections From Colonial and Revolutionary Writers (Classic Reprint)

As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)

Excerpt from An Elementary History of Our CountryThough an introductory history must necessarily be limited in size, it is believed that there can be gained from this volume a definite knowledge of the main events in the history of our land, some idea of the causes of those events, and an acquaintance, sympathetic though slight, with the men who stood behind the events; and that the book will thus serve as an introduction to a later and more extended study of the growth and development of our country.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Stories From Seven Old Favorites: Selected Arranged by Eva March ThappanHis volume is made up of stories from seven famous books. These books are as different as they can possibly be; and yet there are not many boys and girls who do not like every one of them. The chief reason for this is because they seem so true, so much more real than most other stories. When you read about Tom Thumb, for instance, you do not really believe that there ever was a little boy no bigger than his mother's thumb; at least, you do not believe it in the same way that you believe the sun shines or the wind blows; but when you read Robinson Crusoe, you feel as if every word of it must be true.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Stories From Seven Old Favorites: Selected Arranged by Eva March Thappan (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from American Hero Stories Earliest memory was the Boom, boom Of his father's shuttle. The father was a wool comber and weaver, and all the near neighbors were weavers. When the boy went to school he studied and played with the children Of weavers; and when he went to church he knelt before an altar that belonged specially to the weavers. He would probably have become a weaver himself if Genoa had not been a seashore town. The wharves were not far from his home; and even when he went to walk on the hills back Of the city, he could not help seeing the white-sailed ships coming and going. When he was fourteen, he sailed away on one Of them, and for fourteen years he went on one voyage after another. Between the voyages he helped his father comb wool and weave.
