Successes And Failures Of Chancell Louisville By Stephen Crane

310 Words2 Pages

1. Fresh in Cranes approach was that he always thought about himself to much. Crane would not do anything for anyone. His main choice was to do everything for himself unless your his close friend then maybe he will do something. He does not like working, so nothing gets done unless it does involve about himself. This is why he does not get along with a lot of people. Pretty much only people he will get along with is the people who also is stuck up. So for exchange since Crane does nothing for anyone besides himself and best friends people does the same thing to him. 2. The reader feelings about the book is The Successes and Failures of Chancell Louisville. That story shows us what happens in Chancellorsville. A lot of different things has

  • Eight Alabama Clergymen Summary

    309 Words  | 2 Pages

    Samford University professor Jonathan Bass has argued against the vitriolic responses to the eight Alabama clergymen. The essence of Bass’ argument is that while the white clergymen can easily be called close-minded hypocrites, further scrutiny reveals that their intentions were fairly aligned with that of Martin Luther King Jr.’s and that of the black community in Birmingham, Alabama. The eight clergymen elaborated in their public statement that, “When rights are consistently denied, a cause should be pressed in the courts and in negotiations among local leaders, and not in the streets” (Eight Alabama Clergymen, par. 7). The misconception that Bass reveals is that the white clergymen were denouncing King’s demonstrations, when they were actually

    6. I think that Crane’s purpose was to give the reader the feeling that they were on the battlefield with the soldier. He does not report his actions to anyone but rather describes what it looked like in the field from a soldier’s prospective. He described how the men looked in great detail after being confronted by the enemy. This was more of a view from someone involved in the battle.

    A BRIEF HISTORY OF ROMANCE, ARKANSAS During the fall of 1850, a six-wagon, wagon train from Kentucky came upon a little valley with a good size creek. Their leader, Ben Pruitt, thought it looked like a good place to camp for the winter, and they did. By the time spring arrived they had named their settlement Kentucky Valley and called the creek, Cliffy Creek because of the cliffs in the creek and along its sides. One of those cliffs creates a rather large waterfall just a few hundred yards from the downtown area.

    It is no secret that slavery and American expansion go hand in hand. The social reality spilled into politics and divisions between states. The interactions between the North and South caused the nation to go into war. When examining the nature of slavery, these two books do just that. Creating an Old South by Edward Baptist analyzes the time period before the civil war in middle Florida, focusing on two counties.

    Liberty, the county seat of Clay County, is one of the many suburbs surrounding Kansas City. Although Liberty was technically established before Kansas City, the growth of the latter has played a significant part in Liberty's growth. Many residents of Liberty commute to Kansas City to work, attend cultural events or further their education. However, this does not mean that Liberty is a bedroom community; it is a self-sufficient community with a proud heritage and a thriving economy. When the owners of residential or commercial properties in Liberty need asphalt sealcoating, asphalt paving, concrete installation, asphalt crack repairs, parking lot striping or other pavement-related services, they often call All Pro Asphalt.

    Although a bit creepy, this brief glimpse into history has educated me on a couple things. Wilson’s Raid and the things people endured following the American Civil War were all eye openers to me. Although briefly spoken about, I believe the most significant piece of this story is Wilson’s Raid, the first time the courthouse was burned down. Watching helplessly, there was nothing they could do about it at the time. Even the small band of confederates formed to intercept Wilson’s army proved to be unsuccessful.

    Crane writes Henry saying, “‘Well, we both did good. I 'd like to see the fool what 'd say we both didn 't do as good as we could’” (205). In this small gesture, the reader is shown that Henry is becoming more and more selfless, as Henry would have taken the glory for the victory and refused to share it even two chapters earlier. Crane is sure to leave Henry with flaws, however: “A scowl of mortification and rage was upon his face.

  • Summary Of Secession Conventions In The Lower South By Ralph A. Wooster

    Ralph A. Wooster’s article “An Analysis of the Membership of Secession Conventions in the Lower South,” provides a comparative picture and personal characteristics of state convention participants. Wooster argues, of the 1,048 men who participated in the state conventions few have received attention from historical analysis. He utilizes the Eighth Census of the United States, 1860, for his research analysis of personal characteristics of convention participants. By analyzing the data, he determines the median age, place of birth, occupation, number of possessed slaves, possession of real and personal property for each delegate. Wooster then utilizes these markers and compares them to each state on how they voted; whether they voted

  • Analysis Of The Virginia Gentry By Woody Holton

    I believe that Holton wrote this book in order to explain the complex make up of the Virginia gentry. The title of Woody Holton 's history of revolutionary Virginia seems to promise an account of how enslaved Africans and Native Americans were compelled toward independence against their will and interest. He explains that the forced fathers in this account are actually the Virginia gentry. Holton argues that the Virginia gentry were propelled toward independence by two other causes related to their class and material interests. One cause was an outgrowth of the gentry 's problem with debts and merchants.
