They retell the stories about Great American Heroes from the Revolutionary War to the Civil War. First published in 1895 these stories are vivid retellings of forgotten tales.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the dedication: \"Thrift, industry, obedience to law, and intellectual cultivation are essential qualities in the makeup of any successful people; but no people can be really great unless they possess also the heroic virtues which are as needful in time of peace as in time of war, and as important in civil as in military life. As a civilized people we desire peace, but the only peace worth having is obtained by instant readiness to fight when wronged—not by unwillingness or inability to fight at all. Intelligent foresight in preparation and known capacity to stand well in battle are the surest safeguards against war. America will cease to be a great nation whenever her young men cease to possess energy, daring, and endurance, as well as the wish and the power to fight the nation's foes.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents include:  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWASHINGTON \u003cbr\u003eDANIEL BOONE AND THE FOUNDING OF KENTUCKY \u003cbr\u003eGEORGE ROGERS CLARK AND THE CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST \u003cbr\u003eTHE BATTLE OF TRENTON \u003cbr\u003eBENNINGTON \u003cbr\u003eKING'S MOUNTAIN \u003cbr\u003eTHE STORMING OF STONY POINT \u003cbr\u003eGOUVERNEUR MORRIS \u003cbr\u003eTHE BURNING OF THE \"PHILADELPHIA\" \u003cbr\u003eTHE CRUISE OF THE \"WASP\" \u003cbr\u003eTHE \"GENERAL ARMSTRONG\" PRIVATEER \u003cbr\u003eTHE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS \u003cbr\u003eJOHN QUINCY ADAMS AND THE RIGHT OF PETITION \u003cbr\u003eFRANCIS PARKMAN \u003cbr\u003e\"REMEMBER THE ALAMO\" \u003cbr\u003eHAMPTON ROADS \u003cbr\u003eTHE FLAG-BEARER \u003cbr\u003eTHE DEATH OF STONEWALL JACKSON \u003cbr\u003eTHE CHARGE AT GETTYSBURG \u003cbr\u003eGENERAL GRANT AND THE VICKSBURG CAMPAIGN \u003cbr\u003eROBERT GOULD SHAW \u003cbr\u003eCHARLES RUSSELL LOWELL \u003cbr\u003eSHERIDAN AT CEDAR CREEK \u003cbr\u003eLIEUTENANT CUSHING AND THE RAM \"ALBEMARLE\" \u003cbr\u003eFARRAGUT AT MOBILE BAY \u003cbr\u003eLINCOLN \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHyperlinked Chapters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeautifully Illustrated","brand":"Joanne Panettieri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47101160456432,"sku":"2940016009315","price":2.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940016009315_p0.jpg?v=1763627926","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940016009315","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
