Book Description
Excerpt from Historical Record of the City of Savannah "History," said that eminent writer, Lord Bolingbroke, "is philosophy teaching by example." If this assertion be true, either philosophy has been very select in her examples or history not very judicious in her selectious or her teachings. Historians, until very recently, have only found illustrations of life and of fact, and examples for teaching philosophy, Law, and morals, among Kings and Nobles, Warriors and Statesmen. The People, the foundation of the social fabric, with their interests and rights, their thoughts and feelings, their personal toils and domestic life, have only figured in general history as machines for Kings to use or weapons for warriors to employ - the one not caring how soon the machine wore out, the other quite as reckless of the waste of weapons. The pomp of royalty, the problems of philosophers, the shifts and subterfuges of statesmen, and the butcheries of warriors fill the panorama of the world's life as it moves along the pages of the historian. Even here the assertion, as the majority of historians exemplify it, contradicts the facts and teachings of all ages - that the history of the world, as the history of life, is made up of little things. After all that has been written of the eminent and mighty men of ancient and modern times, how little do we know of the inner, personal, and domestic life of communities and nations. Pompeii has revealed more to awaken thought and excite curiosity and disgust than all the histories of Rome from Remus to Pio Nono.

Book Description
Excerpt from A History of Savannah and South Georgia, Vol. 1 The preparation of this history of Savannah was undertaken in response to the urgent request of the publishers who believe there is a demand for it. The writer has been repeatedly asked by others to write such a work, and has now finished the task, sending it forth with the hope that it will measure up to the standard set for it by his friends. He does not claim that it is complete or'that it is free from errors. It contains matter here and there which has been heretofore overlooked by other writers in the same field; and it has been his aim always to give, in disputed questions, the evidence which appears to carry with it the greatest weight. Believing that it will meet a long felt want, he hopes that it will prove useful in its place, and craves the indulgence of the reader in the matter of any defects which may be discovered.

Excerpt from Historic and Picturesque Savannah HE remark of Ruskin, that he could not visit America because it possesses no historic ruins, has slowly been losing its power to wound our historic imagination. With our two centuries and a half of age we are fast recovering from the reproach of newness. With its lengthening years, American history has gained a perspec tive, - its past far enough removed to be the subject of romance.
