  • The Story of American History

    Albert Franklin Blaisdell, Christopher d'James

    (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, July 20, 2012)
    Revisionism and political correctness are the bane of the historian. This reprint of a public domain 1900 elementary school American history textbook represents an unfiltered turn-of-the-century view of our nation's history from Pre-Columbus to the Spanish American War. It's likely closer to a primary source than anything we have today that's been filtered through multiple committees each attempting to advance their own agendas. If at all, Blaisdell is only unintentionally biased and at the very least, his account is an accurate view of a single perspective as opposed to today's texts which purport to be patently objective tellings. Handier than the free PDFs on the web, this you can hold, bookmark, highlight and shelve. An inexpensive imperative for any history buff.

  • Short Stories from American History

    Francis Kingsley Ball, Albert Franklin Blaisdell

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

    Paperback (RareBooksClub.com, Oct. 12, 2012)
    This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1905 edition. Excerpt: ...none nearer than my cabin. Who's to go for it?" Every man and every boy in that band of heroes wished to go. "No, no, indeed! Not a man shall go; we have n't one to spare; let me go!" cried Elizabeth Zane, a fair young girl, sister to Captain Zane. In vain did they try to keep her back. "No, Betty, you must not run the risk!" cried all the men; "you '11 be killed!" "Besides, Betty, you can't run fast enough; you are only a girl," said a boy. "But I am going," Elizabeth said. "You have wasted too much time already. Look at those Indians creeping out of the woods." The men and boys looked ashamed. "Let me go; I can run as fast as any of you," said the girl. "If I am killed, I shall not be missed as a man would be. Somebody pin up my hair so it won't be loose for the Indians to catch hold of." Carefully the big gate was opened just wide enough for Elizabeth to slip out. She gave one loving look at her brothers. Her dark eyes were shining, but in her face there was not a sign of fear as she walked slowly across the open space to her brother's log cabin. The Indians hiding in the bushes saw the gate open and gazed in wonder to see the girl, bareheaded and with sleeves rolled up, quietly walk out of the fort as if for a morning stroll. "Squaw! squaw!" they shouted, but did not fire a shot. Elizabeth had now reached the cabin and found the keg of powder. In breathless silence the watchers at the loopholes saw the girl appear in the doorway with the keg of powder clasped in her arms. She stopped a moment and gave a quick glance at the fort, which seemed a long way off. "Now it is death to my poor sister! Why did we ever let her go?" said...
