The Path of the King
Author: John Buchan
Publisher: London : Hodder and Stoughton, [192-?]
ISBN:
Category : Historical fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Inspired by a friend's hypothesis - that great leaders or creative geniuses, apparently from humble backgrounds, may have royal ancestry in their distant past, which will 2flare up3 at the appointed time - Buchan creates 14 self-sufficient stories, each set at different historical periods spanning 1000 years, linked only by the passing down through the generations of a gold ring, and the common surname of some of the tales' heroes. Each story hints at one person who lives to continue the line through history; the tales range from the era of Norse legend, via Norman England, mediaeval Bruges (an English heroine, wife of a Flemish merchant), a French king's envoy undertaking a fearful journey to Tartar lands during the Crusades; the 100 years war (Maid of Orleans and her admirers,) exploration in Columbus' time, Huguenot riots in Paris, Walter Raleigh dying on a voyage to West Indies, Oliver Cromwell debating regicide with his legal advisor, Catholic/Protestant feuds in 1600's London, a spy in Jacobite Scotland, 3 trappers in Kentucky, and finally, the death in Indiana of Nancy Linkhorn, mother of a future leader in the 19th century, the 2first American3 but also 2the last of the Kings3.

Wigwam and War-path
Author: Alfred Benjamin Meacham
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 752
Book Description
From introduction: "The chapter in our National History which tells our dealings with the Indian tribes, from Plymouth to San Francisco, will be one of the darkest and most disgraceful in our annals. Fraud and oppression, hypocrisy and violence, open, high handed robbery and sly cheating, the swindling agent and the brutal soldier turned into a brigand, buying promotion by pandering to the hate and fears of the settlers, avarice and indifference to human life, and lust for territory, all play their parts in the drama. Except the Negro, no race will lift up, at the judgement seat, such accusing hands against this nation as the Indian."
