Book Description
Excerpt from Pioneers and Patriots in Early American History The stories in this book are all concerned with the great fight which our forefathers made for independence in the Revolutionary War. They are told with no desire to emphasize the glories of war, nor to encourage any tendency toward militarism; but rather to arouse an interest in our early history, in which war unfortunately had a part. As in the companion book, "Camp and Trail in Early American History," choice has been made of what are considered by the author to be type stories, which shall contribute toward the broad view of the time which we desire children to have before beginning the formal study of history. These stories bring out the character of the men who fought for freedom, and some of the conditions under which their fight was waged.

Author: Frank Bevc
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1365147193
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
Like leaves in the wind, the lives of seven generations of the Elwell Family were driven by early American history to progress and peril. Fourteen years after the Mayflower, Robert Elwell landed at the Massachusetts Bay Colony and prospered in one of the first settlements in the New World. His children fought in the first Indian War and endured the Salem Witch Trials. A new frontier in West Jersey became a refuge and starting point for a westward migration that lasted for over a century. Patriot Thomas Elwell sought his fortune on the Allegheny frontier. He survived eight years of Revolutionary War service including combat in northern battles, a winter at Valley Forge and the southern campaign leading to Yorktown. Thomas married and moved west to Fort Cumberland to welcome troops mustering to put down the Whiskey Rebellion before homesteading in Ohio's Knox County. His children pushed westward to build lives in the new Northwest Territory before their children fought in the Civil War.

A Patriot's History of the United States
Author: Larry Schweikart
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101217782
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 1350
Book Description
For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.
