Excerpt from Ye Amherst Girl of Ye Olden TymeThese customs, with many others as novel in their way, prevailed at the beginning of the century, when the oldest persons now living were yet too young to under stand them. The country had but recently buried many heroes of the Revolution, and the spirit of the fathers had descended in four - fold measure upon their children, as, with a heroism worthy of their sires, they compelled the stony hillsides of New England to furnish them a livelihood. The Sword of Bunker Hill hung full in View above the farmer's fireplace, a constant inspiration and reminder to him and to his family. The soldier had become a man of peace, and how to make a living from the farm was the problem staring him in the face.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
