Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1830 Excerpt: ...quality, learns, You're an honest good man, and take care of your bairns. Your Mercurie's hill, too, a wit doth betoken, Some book-craft you have, and are pretty well spoken. But, stay, in your Jupiter's mount, what's here? A king, a monarch! what wonders appear! High, bountiful, just; a Jove for your parts, A master of men, and that reign in their hearts.' One passage in this address deserves to be commerited on; 'You are an honest good man, and take care of your bairns;' which, as it does not yield the praise that is apt to enter into a set panegyric, but seems to be a plain unvarnished account of what James really was, must be held as saying a great deal in favour of the homely worth, and good domestic character, of the King. James has often been stigmatised as a bad husband and father. It has even been insinuated against him, that he was instrumental in the death of his eldest son, from jealousy of his rising popularity. We learn, on the contrary, from Sir Theodore Mayerne, his physician, that This was written two years after Queen Anne's death. his health was considerably affected by grief for the deaths of Prince Henry and Queen Anne. That he was sincerely attached to his consort, and regarded her womanly foibles with that gentleness of construction which marks the truly good husband, is, we think, pretty well evidenced by the letter which he wrote to her in consequence of the fracas about Prince Henry before she left Scotla. It is further proved by a delightful anecdote, which is thus recorded in a private letter, of date July 1613---' At their last being at Theobald's, the Queen, shooting a deer, mistook her mark, and killed Jewel, the King's most special and favourite hound at which he stormed exceedingly a while; but, after be knew who did it...

Libraries to the People
Author: Robert S. Freeman
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 9780786413591
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
With today’s technology, anyone anywhere can access public library materials without leaving home or office—one simply logs on to the library’s website to be exposed to a wealth of information. But one of the concerns that arises is the lack of access for groups isolated by socioeconomic, geographical, or cultural factors. This problem is not a new one. For almost two centuries, public libraries and other organizations have been trying to bring library services to isolated populations. This book is a collection of fourteen essays examining the contributions of librarians, educators, and organizations in the United States who have endeavored to bring library services to groups that previously did not have access. There are three sections: Benevolent and Commercial Organizations, Government Supported Programs, and Innovative Outreach Services. The essays discuss reading materials for two centuries of rural Louisianians, shipboard libraries for the American Navy and merchant Marine, library outreach to prisoners, the Indiana Township Library Program, tribal libraries in the lower forty-eight states, open-air libraries, electronic outreach, and the use of radio in promoting the Municipal Reference Library of the City of New York, to name just a few of the essay topics.
