Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Uncle Isaac; Or Old Days in the South: A Remembrance of the South Maturity had not marked the author of this volume for its victim - maturity means responsibility and care and labor - when the revolution in Southern life was had, and its recent fashions and ways were transferred to legend and song, and its exanimate factors to the philosophy of history. With the civil war the atony of a lost thunder trembled in the air, and a generation of Southern people felt that a Summer was ended. But a disappearing immaturity - of years - located him then in a time of life, when impressions are most securely fixed in memory´s safest place. He has not forgotten, and not forgetting, he has fancied that he must remind those who may forget, of the glad and better things of the past, which may still follow life for good, and preserve something of the old inspirations for those who can get them only from one who does not forget. "But how will the North take your book?" asked a friend, when the manuscript was read to him, and the question gave the publication pause. Reflection, however, brought the consciousness of the fact that the North was not over against the South, unfriendly. The North, the South, the East, and the West are the Union, and what is of value in history or tradition, and a pleasure of remembrance in one section must be of some value and of some charm to the whole country.
