Book Description
Excerpt from Music From the Days of George Washington: Collected and Provided With an Introduction Such associations, Of course, exist in the majority Of cases. As befits the purpose, they are directly or indirectly connected with George Washington. The soldier has been ranked with Frederick the Great and the first Napoleon. Of the illustrious trio, only the Prussian King had decided musical tastes and talents. But both Napoleon and Washington valued music as an indispensable adjunct to military, social, and religious functions; and neither of the two was spared the numerous and varied musical tributes paid to his person and glory, in accordance with the fashion of the times.

Book Description
Excerpt from Songs by the Way: The Poetical Writings of the Right Rev. George Washington Doane, DD., LL. D My Father's poems were not the labour of his life. His own name for them, Songs by the Way, is the best and tru'est name. Poems are creations. And in the truest sense, the creations of his life are poems, permanent and beautiful, in all their usefulness and strength. His poems either bloomed, out of the deep valleys of suffering, which duty made in his life or were the graceful vine, that grew, unsolicited, over the rough rocks, of his steep pathway into glory. His heart was full Of them and when the rod smote the rock when he was touched by kindness, or by suffering, by a child's gift Of a violet, or some heroic deed of a man they just flowed out, in all the force and fervour of nature and necessity. And, like all his life, they were all tributary streams, of that great ocean of worship, that gathers round the Church's Altar, and dashes its eternal waves against the very Throne of God. The hard workman, beguiled the weariest task, setting its labour, to the music of his soul. Many of these verses were published, in A. D. 1824, in a volume now out of print bearing the title of this book. Many Others, from time to time, have appeared in news papers, and there are many, beside these, whose echoes linger round his beautiful home, and in our loving hearts that will not go beyond those sacred shrines.
