Kansas Miscellanies (Classic Reprint) by Noble L. Prentis Pdf

Excerpt from Kansas Miscellanies It appears here at the suggestion of many friends. For the rest, it may be said that they consist of sketches which appeared originally in Kansas newspapers, and of addresses delivered to Kansas audiences. These are presented, without regard to lapse of time, in the form in which they received the honor of being copied in Kansas newspapers, and the kindly mention, of Kansas people. They are selected from a mass of writings, the labor of nearly twenty years, in which there has scarcely been a day when the writer has not said some word for Kansas, the land of the sunflower and the breeze. To the always-lenient judgment of the Kansas public they are again committed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A History of Kansas (Classic Reprint) by Noble L. Prentis Pdf

Excerpt from A History of Kansas The attempt has been made, in preparing this volume, to give, within a convenient compass, the most interesting and material occurrences and events in the history of the rise of a great Free State from a wilderness. Harrowing details and discreditable happenings have been purposely omitted. The story has been told as a record of courage and steadfastness, and increasing devotion to the principles of human freedom and national union. Events have been arranged, as nearly as possible, in the order of the years, with an occasional arrangement of the years in periods or groups, with no further classification or subdivision. No attempt has been made to "write down" to the supposed intellectual capacity of children. Students old enough to enter upon the study of the history of an American State, it is believed, will find all the statements and conclusions comprehensible.

Impressions of Early Kansas (Classic Reprint) by Eliza Johnston Wiggin Pdf

Excerpt from Impressions of Early Kansas As I sit by the western window and the brief winter afternoon draws toward its close, my mind turns back to dear old Waverley. Outside the wind is rising and the waning day shows gray and chill, but far away I see visions of a fair, deep blue sky, gemmed with fleecy floating clouds. Instead of deep snows and ice bound streams, are wide expanses of green fields, velvet carpeted, and sown thickly with johnny-jump-ups and dainty strawberry blossoms. Away over the far wooded hills, distance lends enchantment to the purplish haze that rests forever above the winding river; while around all is spread the fairest country that ever gladdened the eyes and hearts of men, - the beautiful prairies of Kansas. Among the many towns and embryo cities that sprang up as it were by magic on the opening of the territory in eighteen fifty-five, was my own dear town of Waverley. This ambitious little county seat was laid out in true generous Western fashion over a square mile or so of charming hill and dale, its modest frame houses, many of them built of the native black walnut, separated by wide stretches of greenest verdure. Here and there the streets led over picturesque wooden bridges, for from the hilly eastern border to the noble plateau that formed the western boundary, there was a succession of hills and hollows, varied by deep, winding ravines, each of which prisoned a brawling, pigmy torrent during the winter thaws and the spring rains. Crowning the brow of the eastern hill, was the Woodson Hotel, a many windowed frame building of two stories, looking south. In front was a wide veranda from whose pleasant shelter the wayfarer could overlook the little city and the broad wagon road with its traffic and bustle, varied now and then by slow moving ox teams, or long lines of canvas covered wagons of the countless home seekers. These wagons were filled with furniture and bedding, weary women and sunburnt children. Sometimes a stove pipe protruded through an opening in the canvas telling of an attempt at warmth and comfort when the prairie winds blew cold.

Kansas History (Classic Reprint) by Raymond G. Taylor Pdf

Excerpt from Kansas History Finally, the author has tried to avoid the use of much contro versial matter with which the literature of Kansas history is so plentifully deluged. To eliminate all material of that character is clearly impossible, for as yet much of the most valuable of our historical writing is the work of active participants in the stirring history of our early days and necessarily is personal.

When Kansas Was Young (Classic Reprint) by T. A. McNeal Pdf

Excerpt from When Kansas Was Young The stories contained in this book have been written at Odd times and published in the Daily Capital of Topeka, Kansas. They were continued because the readers of the Capital seemed to enjoy them and asked for more. I received a good many requests that they be put into book form and through the kindness Of The Macmillan Company this has been done. The stories present, I think, some pictures of frontier life and frontier characters not found in any other book. I hope the readers of the book will enjoy reading the stories as much as I have enjoyed writing them. If they do I will be more than satisfied.
