Early Settlement and Growth of Western Iowa Or Reminiscences (Classic Reprint) by John Todd Pdf

Excerpt from Early Settlement and Growth of Western Iowa or Reminiscences Consequently the material herewith presented appeared in T he Tabor Beacon, the weekly paper of his home town, in 1891. This naturally led to verification, corrections and additions, which added much to the value of the work. The re vision was carefully made by my father and the following is the result. He corresponded with some publishing houses to learn the cost of publi cation, but hesitated, partly from characteristic modesty, I believe, to undertake the work. After his death in 1894, his children thought to publish the work with a sketch of his life, but hitherto a favorable opportunity has not presented itself.

History of Harrison County, Iowa by Joe; H. Smith Pdf

Excerpt from History of Harrison County, Iowa: Including a Condensed History of the State, the Early Settlement of the County, Its Topography, and Natural Advantages Don't run! I shall not be long-winded. Just hold a minute as I have but a few words to say, and I always despise long intro ductions to books as well as to sermons. I will make this brief. My intent has been, on each subject called up, to strike oil in five or ten minutes, and in case there was a failure, then to with draw my auger and quit boring. The following pages contain a brief, unvarnished narrative of many of those incidents which took place in the growth of this county, the greater part of which have been under my own im mediate observation. Having tabernacled with the people of this countv continuously for the past thirty-one years, recollec tion unaided by records would enable me to bring out many of the past transactions, but in that set forth herein I have on every occasion verified bv reference to records.

Pioneers of Polk County, Iowa, Vol. 1 by L. F. Andews Pdf

Excerpt from Pioneers of Polk County, Iowa, Vol. 1: And Reminiscences of Early Days The pioneers gave little or no attention to history. They were too busily engaged in making history, yet, historically, the period in which they lived was important and potential, for then was laid the foundation of the civic and social life of the county. It was not a time of great events, yet it was one of self-reliance, of persevering toil, of many priva tions, of numerous exigencies, all of which were cheerfully endured through faith in the well-being that was to follow.

Black Hawk by Kerry A. Trask Pdf

A stirring retelling of the Black Hawk War that brings into dramatic focus the forces struggling for control over the American frontier Until 1822, when John Jacob Aster swallowed up the fur trade and the trading posts of the upper Mississippi were closed, the 6,000-strong Sauk Nation occupied one of North America's largest and most prosperous Indian settlements. Its spacious longhouse lodges and council-house squares, supported by hundreds of acres of planted fields, were the envy of white Americans who had already begun to encroach upon the rich Indian land that served as the center of the Sauk's spiritual world. When the inevitable conflicts between natives and white squatters turned violent, Black Hawk's Sauks were forced into exile, banished forever from the east side of the Mississippi River. Longing for what their culture had been, Black Hawk and his followers, including 700 warriors, rose up in a rage in the spring of 1832, and defiantly crossed the Mississippi from Iowa to Illinois in order to reclaim their ancestral home. Though the war lasted only three months, no other violent encounter between white America and native peoples embodies so clearly the essence of the Republic's inner conflict between its belief in freedom and human rights and its insatiable appetite for new territory. Kerry A. Trask gives new and vivid life to the heroic efforts of Black Hawk and his men, illuminating the tragic history of frontier America through the eyes of those who were cast aside in the pursuit of the new nation's manifest destiny.
