Excerpt from Hero Stories of France On the sunny plains and in the pleasant valleys there were many little villages, mere groups of round huts made Of poles bound together at the top, and probably plastered with clay to keep out the wind and cold. On the hills, however, there were Often towns with streets of houses framed Of stout tim bers. There were workshops, too, and in these the Gauls made pottery, different sorts Of weapons, and beautifully enameled jewelry.

Excerpt from Heroes of the Middle West: The French Let any one who thinks it an easy task attempt to cover the French discovery and occu pation of the middle west, from Marquette and J Olliet to the pulling down of the French flag on Fort Chartres, vivifying men, and while con densing events, putting a moving picture before the eye. Let him prepare this picture for young minds accustomed Only to the modern aspect of things and demandinga light, sure touch. Let him gather his material as I have done - from Parkman, Shea, J outel, Hennepin, St. Cosme, Monette, Winsor, Roosevelt - from state records, and local traditions richer and Oftener more reli able than history; and let him hang over his theme with brooding affection, moulding and re moulding its forms. He will find the task he so lightly set himself a terribly hard and exhausting one, and will appreciate as he never before appre ciated the labors of those who work in historic.

Excerpt from Heroes of the Nations Dear Girls and Boys: You have been working away with the queer, crooked marks printed in books until now you know how to read. How many splendid stories are waiting for you! To be sure they are locked up in books, but whoever can read has the magic key which opens the books. Will you enjoy this book? That depends upon what you like. Some of these stories are about girls and boys. Most of them learned to read and write, though their languages were very different from ours. They enjoyed fine stories as you do. Brave Joan of Arc could not read; but she could pray; and her prayers saved France. Of course you love your mother and father very dearly, and they love you. So you will understand why Ulysses went to war rather than hurt his baby boy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Hero In French Romantic Literature Classic Reprint written by George Ross Ridge and has been published by Forgotten Books this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017-07-16 with French literature categories.

Excerpt from The Hero in French Romantic Literature By the self-conscious hero I refer to the essence of the to mantic protagonist, after his many various trappings have been stripped away. He is what remains beneath a multitude of poses and superficial traits. He is at once a reflection of the romantic writer and a projection of what the romantics considered the ideal man, for any hero must be, by definition, a concept of the ideal man. By studying the romantic hero in this light we can visualize, to a rather fine point, just what sort of configuration the romantic ideal man assumed. Thus a study of the romantic hero can tell us much about the spirit of the age. He can lead us straight to the writer's own psyche, as both an artistic reflection and projection. He can reveal the values which motivate the hero and character ize the romantic worldview. For he will surely reflect the writer's beliefs and ideas, as he is caught up in the social cataclysm and philosophical reorientation of romanticism. Surely, then, the romantic hero is our best touchstone to understanding romantic literature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Hero Tales and Legends of the Rhine But it is not contended that because greater space and freedom of narrative scope than is usual has been taken by the author the volume would not prove itself an accept able companion upon a voyage on Rhine waters under taken in holiday times Of peace. Indeed, every attempt has been made so to arrange the legends that they will illustrate a Rhine journey from sea to source - the manner in which the majority Of visitors to Germany will make the voyage - and to this end the tales have been marshalled in such form that a reader sitting on the deck of a Rhine steamer may be able to peruse the legends relating to the various localities in their proper order as he passes them. There are included, however, several tales relating to places which cannot be viewed from the deck of a steamer, but which may be visited at the cost of a short inland ex cursion. These are such as from their celebrity could not be omitted from any work on the legends of Rhineland, but they are few in number.

Excerpt from A Blue Devil of France: Epic Figures and Stories of the Great War, 1914-1918 This volume contains an ensemble of true episodes about the French poilu taken from my diary. The reader will regret, perhaps, the absence of continuity in the following chapters; that will rapidly disappear, however, when he sees the characteristic figures he should better know and love for a long time to come. A scruple has always guided me: to write the truth. I have been strict in writing nothing but what I have seen or heard. In giving these souvenirs to the American public, I have had but one object: to mold in relief the warlike virtues of the admirable soldiers of France with whom I have fought for more than three years. Mothers, wives, sweethearts and children of the heroes fallen in defense of their country, will find in these pages a precious consolation: they will see that with just reason they can be proud of their cherished dead. I ask indulgence, much indulgence of the public. I have written these lines simply and faithfully during a long and painful convalescence; many times I have felt that my physical forces would abandon me before I could arrive at the end of my task.

Excerpt from Scaramouche: A Romance of the French Revolution He was born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad. And that was all his patrimony. His very paternity was obscure, although the village of Gavrillac had long since dispelled the cloud of mystery that hung about it. Those simple Brittany folk were not so simple as to be deceived by a pretended relationship which did not even possess the virtue of originality. When a nobleman, for no apparent reason, announces himself the godfather of an infant fetched no man knew whence, and thereafter cares for the lad's rearing and education, the most unsophisticated of country folk perfectly understand the situation. And so the good people of Gavrillac permitted themselves no illusions on the score of the real relationship between Andre-Louis Moreau - as the lad had been named - and Quintin de Kercadiou, 'Lord of Gavrillac, who dwelt in the big grey house that dominated from its eminence the village clustering below. Andre-Louis had learnt his letters at the village school, lodged the while with old Rabouillet, the attorney, who in the capacity of fiscal intendant, looked after the affairs of M. de Kercadiou. Thereafter, at the age of fifteen, he had been packed off to Paris, to the Lycee of Louis Le Grand, to study the law which he was now returned to practise in conjunction with Rabouillet. All this at the charges of his godfather, M. de Kercadiou, who by placing him once more under the tutelage of Rabouillet would seem thereby quite clearly to be making provision for his future.

Excerpt from Air Service Boys, Flying for France: Or the Young Heroes of the Lafayette Escadrille "Now then, good luck to you, Tom! Tell me how it feels to look down on the world from- the clouds." "Oh, I expect to have a high old time, Jack - three thousand feet of it, in fact. And my nerves seem to be as steady as ever." "You're a lucky boy, all right, to get this chance to try for altitude after being in the harness at the aviation field for only two months." "But my instructor tells me I was born for the life of a birdman, Jack." "I know you've talked, read, and dreamed of little else these two years back. And now, Tom, at last the germ has caught me almost as fiercely in its grip." "Yes, old boy, it means the pair of us working tooth and nail now, learning to fly, so when the time comes, we can take our places for Uncle Sam in the great game. And it isn't going to be so very far off now, with that fear ful war raging across the sea." "Well, look out for yourself, Tom.
