Memoirs of Life and Literature (Classic Reprint) by W. H. Mallock Pdf

Excerpt from Memoirs of Life and Literature The Mallocks of Cockington - Some old Devonshire Houses - A Child's Outlook on Life. "Memoirs" is a word which, as commonly used, includes books of very various kinds, ranging from St. Augustine's Confessions to the gossip of Lady Dorothy Nevill. Such books, however, have all one family likeness. They all of them represent life as seen by the writers from a personal point of view; and in this sense it is to the family of Memoirs that the present book belongs. But the incidents or aspects of life which a book of Memoirs describes represent something more than themselves.

Literary Industries by Hubert Howe Bancroft Pdf

Excerpt from Literary Industries: A Memoir Hen we contemplate a great work of any kind we are naturally led to inquire into the origin of it. We ask ourselves how it was conceived; how the germ-idea of it was developed; how it grew to its full proportions; and above all, What manner of man it was to whom the accom plishment Of such a work was given. In this volume of memoirs the genesis, evolution, and completion of one of the most remarkable literary undertakings of the age are de scribed, and in the most interesting of forms, namely, the auto biographic. The life and work of Hubert Howe Bancroft, moreover, afford a study of one of the rarest and most potent of combinations - that of the faculties which belong to the scholar and to the man Of action. For the most part these faculties are found apart. The scholar is seldom a man of action; the man of action is seldom a scholar. The devotion of all available energies to busmess has usually been thought incompatible with the development and pursuit of any high intellectual aim. The devotion Of all available energies to intellectual work has as a rule appeared incompatible with success in what are called practical affairs. Mr. Bancroft's memoirs not only prove him to be possessed of both these capacities, but they clearly Show that this rare and peculiar combination could alone have enabled him to carry out his life-work as he has done.

Memories of My Life (Classic Reprint) by Francis Galton Pdf

Excerpt from Memories of My Life The method of that most useful volume, the Index and E pitome of t/ze Dictionary of tile National Bz'ogmp/zy, has been adopted, of adding to each name the dates of birth and death. They serve for identification and for giving a correct idea of the age of each man as compared with those with whom he was associated. The dates are mostly taken from the Dictionary, so the reader will nearly always find in that work a biography of the person in question.

The A. M. Crary Memoirs and Memoranda (Classic Reprint) by A. M. Crary Pdf

Excerpt from The A. M. Crary Memoirs and Memoranda The preface of a book is more of a matter of form than of any particular usefulness in getting at the facts contained therein. I propose, therefore, to sub mit this volume to you, kind reader, with the simple assurance that the design from first to last is to give Variety rather than Sameness, so as not to weary your patience with long drawn out Formula, which too often has a tendency to cause one to become impatient to arrive at the real pith of the argument, and in many cases to cause a person to throw a book aside before reading it half through. Part first contains Biography, Genealogy and Reminiscences connected with the Author's Civil and Military life.

Memoir and Remains, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint) by John Miller Gray Pdf

Excerpt from Memoir and Remains, Vol. 1 of 2 This little book is the outcome of a desire on the part of his friends for some per manent memorial of thelife and work of one who was not only regarded by them with feelings of high esteem, but whose attractive personality inspired warm affec tion in those who knew him best. The few pages which deal with his biography are the brief record of a career cut short before it had attained the plenitude of its power: still, there was more than promise; there was performance of a very substantial kind, performance which would certainly have led to wider recognition and higher preferment had life been spared.

Alcott Memoirs (Classic Reprint) by Frederick Llewellyn Hovey Willis Pdf

Excerpt from Alcott Memoirs So much has been written of the famous men and women of New England whose lives compassed approximately the years 1800 to 1870, that little if anything remains to be told. No pretense is here made to supply such deficiency if it exists. This little book aims at naught else than a presentation of a personal point of view wherein alone lies whatever of originality it may contain. It in no sense presumes to offer original matter save from the angle of individually recorded impression. I offer its pages as a tribute to my father and not as a contribution to the already extensive literature concerning the early literary period of New England. So far as possible dates and facts have been verified, but no exhaustive effort has been made to present historic or biographic matter, the object being to preserve neither people nor events, but my father's memory of them.
