Excerpt from History of Tennessee, Its People and Its Institutions The competent teacher of history demands of the text-book two essential qualities: Firsf. The text-book must contain a clear statement of all mate rial facts, and an adequate discussion of all important topics, arranged in such consecutive order as to cover the subject completely, and to connect all the parts in logical sequence. There must be no missing link in the chain of events. The author of the text-book does not share in the licen>e accorded to the general writer. He has no right to dilate on favorite or sensational topics to the omission or exclusion of essential links in the chain of history. In order to cover the subject in all its parts, it is necessary that the style be concise and the scope be comprehensive. If the text-book be defective in this first essential quality, no rhetorical excellence or charm of style can cure the defect. Second. In connection with the statement of each important fact, and the discussion of each important topic, the text-book must supply carefully selected page references to the sources of information, and to the best authorities in which the subject is treated more in detail than the restrictions of a school-book will permit. The skillful teacher makes this demand of the text-book, because he needs it as an aid to himself and a guide to the pupil, in order to accomplish the best results. He knows that the limitations of the school-term will not permit him to do more than lay the foundation upon which the pupil, himself, in future years must build the superstructure. If the teacher is ambitious that his teaching shall live in the future lives of his pupils, he looks beyond the school-room, and is not content to prepare his pupils only for the next recitation, or the next examination. If he aims to train lovers Of history, or readers of history, or writers of history, he must give his pupils, at least, a glimpse of the rich and varied field of historical literature, with some training towards forming the habit of historical research, and some practice in the methods of historical investigation. The text-book should aid in this work by supplying references. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A History of Tennessee From 1663 to 1900: For Use in Schools The people who live in Tennessee, who have made it a civilized country, and who have made its history, are the children, grandchildren, etc., of people who came from Europe and settled in America. Before the days of Columbus the people of Europe knew nothing of Amer ica. They had never heard of such a country. In 1492 Columbus sailed from Spain across the Atlantic Ocean and discovered some of the islands of the West Indies. He afterward discovered South America, but he never saw North America. No people except savages, that Columbus called Indians, then lived in America. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from History and Prospectus: Tennessee School for the Blind This introduction to the History and Prospectus of the Tennessee School for the Blind may contain little that is not found in the body of the work, and the most that its author hopes for it is that it may serve to direct attention to the wise observations of Professor Armstrong and to the data which he presents. If it should help to secure for Professor Armstrong's able presentation of a most interesting subject the attention and sympathy of thoughtful people, the motive that inspired it will have been fully satisfied. Its records show how, from a small beginning, the Tennessee School for the Blind has grown to vast proportions. Its history illustrates what such a beginning, inaugurated by one who was bereft of sight but who inspired his cause, may become in time, by intelligent, unselfish, and continuous attention, and by the generous support of public-spirited citizens and of the law makers of a great State as well. Much more might have been done with more ample means at the disposal of the Trustees and the Superintendents, but all this can be made good by more generous aid from the State Legislature in the future. The intelligent citizens of Tennessee, no less than the law-makers of the State, will read with profit and satisfaction the contents of this volume, and, having read it with the care and attention it deserves, they will give to an institution which has done so much in the past for a sadly afflicted class of our fellow beings the means with which to accomplish even greater results in the future. Let this volume, prepared with so much care, displaying so much thought and study, and presenting an array of facts and figures of such engaging interest as to make the reader forget almost that this is not a work of fiction, find its way silently into every heart and home in Tennessee. And let it be remem bered that Professor Armstrong, Superintendent of the School for the Blind, who is himself deprived of the blessing of sight.

In 1891, thousands of Tennessee miners rose up against the use of convict labor by the state's coal companies, eventually engulfing five mountain communities in a rebellion against government authority. Propelled by the insurgent sensibilities of Populism and Gilded Age unionism, the miners initially sought to abolish the convict lease system through legal challenges and legislative lobbying. When nonviolent tactics failed to achieve reform, the predominantly white miners repeatedly seized control of the stockades and expelled the mostly black convicts from the mining districts. Insurrection hastened the demise of convict leasing in Tennessee, though at the cost of greatly weakening organized labor in the state's coal regions. Exhaustively researched and vividly written, A New South Rebellion brings to life the hopes that rural southerners invested in industrialization and the political tensions that could result when their aspirations were not met. Karin Shapiro skillfully analyzes the place of convict labor in southern economic development, the contested meanings of citizenship in late-nineteenth-century America, the weaknesses of Populist-era reform politics, and the fluidity of race relations during the early years of Jim Crow.

Excerpt from Andrew Jackson, Tennessee and the Union: A Paper I couple the name of Jackson with the title of this paper, because around him crystallized the peculiar political tenets held by the Tennesseans of his day. I do not hold that he moulded the sentiment of Tennessee. On the contrary, I believe the conditions that Obtained in her settlement gave a common direction to the political opinions of the people of the State, and that Andrew Jackson, who was a born leader of men, was the recognized expo nent only of those sentiments which were common to his countrymen.
