Dear Children: -You will like to know that the man who wrote these true stories is himself one of the people he describes so pleasantly and so lovingly for you. He hopes that when you have finished this book, the Indians will seem to you very real and very friendly.

Home Life in India (Classic Reprint) by John Finnemore Pdf

Excerpt from Home Life in India The first world of which a child has knowledge is, of course, the little world of home. As his interests extend, it is but natural that he should feel a curiosity as to the homes of children of other lands. He may be quite content with his own nest; he may sing, with Mr. Stevenson, "Little Indian, Sioux, or Crow, Little frosty Eskimo, Little Turk or Japanee, Oh, don't you wish that you were me?" and, at the same time, take the keenest pleasure in hearing of the everyday round amid surroundings so different from his own. This series will give clear and vivid pictures of homes under other skies, and thus form an introduction to the life of the world under the conditions of existence which the child-imagination can grasp most easily.

Indians in Victorian Children’s Narratives by Shilpa Daithota Bhat Pdf

The genesis of the history of British colonization in India is often traced to traders, merchants, and the formation of the British East India Company. While this is indisputable, what is ignored is the creation and perpetual fueling of the steady stream of British officers into the Indian economy that happened due to the continuing efforts of British people and society. How did this ensue? In the contemporary world when we talk of the transnational terror networks we are filled with awe when we find children being engineered to the vocation of violence. However, this was true even of the earlier times when writers (albeit politely!) hid the colonial ideology within their literature. The children perhaps were tantalized by the beauties abroad, by the tigers, the rhinos, the ‘native’ Rajas! The use of animal imagery was conspicuous in such literature. This kind of narrative discourse was targeted not only at baby patriots but also at young adults, appealing them with adventurous stories of colonization in India. Through stories, museums, objects; the British children were continuously bombarded with knowledge of the colonies and its alluring bounties. These could be obtained only if the children would study them religiously, internalize the process of travel and looting; and actually reach the destination to perpetuate the imperial agenda. This book encapsulates the agenda of consciously training British children through underscoring resources and fauna in India pursued by the British society in the nineteenth century Victorian England.

The Indian (Classic Reprint) by George Bird Grinnell Pdf

Excerpt from The Indian This volume might be called one of recollections, for in it have been set down many memories of Indian life. The scenes described I have witnessed with my own eyes; the stories related are those which have been told me by the Indians themselves. These stories are introduced freely because the con crete example conveys a clearer idea of an event than an abstract statement, and because the story of the Indian should not be told wholly from the point of view of a race alien in thought, feeling, and culture. No narrative about any people can do them justice if written by one who is not in some degree in sympathy with them, and acquainted with their ways of thought and with the motives which govern them. Before an intelligent account of it can be given, the stranger race must be comprehended. Long association with Indi ans enables a white man ultimately to share their thought and feelings; and he who has reached this point understands the Indian. He understands that the red man is a savage and has savage qualities, yet he sees also that the most impressive characteristic of the Indian is his humanity. For in his Simplicity, his vanity, his sensitiveness to ridicule, his desire for re venge, and his fear of the supernatural, he is a child and acts like one.

Busy Hands by Isabelle F. Bowker Pdf

Excerpt from Busy Hands: Construction Work for Children One purpose of this book is to make clearer the subjects which may be studied in connection with language or history. Children are delighted to make any article. They enter into construction work with the utmost zeal. In this volume the author has sought to direct this natural interest of the child in such a way that its studies will be more clearly understood. For example: Let a teacher select The Indians, for a language or history lesson. The children will learn to talk readily about those people, but after a class has constructed a Wigwam, the customs of the Indians will be more real. Those children who get ideas slowly from the oral word will probably have their first clear conception of Indian life after construct ing a canoe. The book has another purpose. Few children get ideas readily from the printed page. Busy Hands may be used to overcome that difficulty. If each child in a class had a copy of the book, and was told to make an article by doing just what the book said, sentence by sentence, the children would soon develop power to grasp the meaning from other printed material. That the children may be helped in the ways set forth is the wish of the author. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
