Book Description
Excerpt from Glenlonely, Vol. 3 of 3 Emily, descending to the fine old library, passed to a small irregular room which joined like an offset to its statelier parent: this also was stored with books, and, being formed within a corner turret, was preferred for its solitude to the deep bow windows, and a lover, or some silly poet might add, for the views it commanded of all who approached.

Book Description
Excerpt from Quite Alone, Vol. 1 of 3 The concluding portion of these volumes - that is to say, from page 185, vol. iii., to the end - is not mine. "Quite Alone" has been finished during my absence from England by "another hand." It is now my duty, in fairness to the public, and in justice to my publishers and myself, briefly and candidly to explain how it has come about that a work put forth under my name contains many pages not written by me. I will at once drop the convenient, but very frequently disingenuous, plea of ill health. I was, it is true, when I left this country more than a year since, exceedingly unwell, and have had since then several attacks of influenza, a calenture or two, a low fever, and a touch of what seemed to be premonitory of the vomito negro; but, on the whole, I have been no more an invalid than could be expected in the case of a traveller rushing from one trying climate to another, and have, thank God, "kept my health" in a remarkable degree. When I quitted home, in November, 1863, the novel of "Quite Alone" was about half finished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Mostly hidden from public view, like an embarrassing family secret, scores of putative locks of George Washington’s hair are held, more than two centuries after his death, in the collections of America’s historical societies, public and academic archives, and museums. Excavating the origins of these bodily artifacts, Keith Beutler uncovers a forgotten strand of early American memory practices and emerging patriotic identity. Between 1790 and 1840, popular memory took a turn toward the physical, as exemplified by the craze for collecting locks of Washington’s hair. These new, sensory views of memory enabled African American Revolutionary War veterans, women, evangelicals, and other politically marginalized groups to enter the public square as both conveyors of these material relics of the Revolution and living relics themselves. George Washington’s Hair introduces us to a taxidermist who sought to stuff Benjamin Franklin’s body, an African American storyteller brandishing a lock of Washington’s hair, an evangelical preacher burned in effigy, and a schoolmistress who politicized patriotic memory by privileging women as its primary bearers. As Beutler recounts in vivid prose, these and other ordinary Americans successfully enlisted memory practices rooted in the physical to demand a place in the body politic, powerfully contributing to antebellum political democratization.
