Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of Calcutta for Over Half a Century I think it would be advisable for me to state at the outset that these reminiscences are at the outset that these reminiscences are entirely devoid of sensational elements, in order to prevent any possible disappointment and remove from the minds of those, and I know several, who have conceived the idea that I am about to disclose matters that, as far as I am concerned, must for ever lie buried in the past. There are certain startling incidents still fresh in my memory that I could relate, but they would be out of place in a work of this nature. A considerable amount of the subject-matter contained herein is devoted to a descriptive account of the wonderful transformation that has overtaken the city since my first arrival in the sixties, and to the many and varied structural improvements and additions that have been, and are still being, made in streets and buildings, both public and private. The origin and conception of this little work is due to the inspiration of my friend Walter Exley of the Statesman staff.

Download or read book Peter Jackson written by Bob Petersen and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born to former slaves on St. Croix in 1860, Peter Jackson made his name as a boxer with his smooth, fast style and a dangerous one-two combination. After immigrating to Australia, Jackson became that country's national heavyweight champion in 1886 before moving on to the United States and claiming the title of Colored Champion of the World in 1888. For the next ten years Peter Jackson remained undefeated, finally losing to the great Jim Jeffries in 1898. Although he never received a shot at the heavyweight title--reigning heavyweight champion John L. Sullivan refused to defend his title against a black man--Jackson remains one of the greatest heavyweights ever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Echoes From Old Calcutta: Being Chiefly Reminiscences of the Days of Warren, Hastings, Francis, and Impey Dear, Dr. Busteed, It is with very sincere pleasure that I learn that yet another and a greatly enlarged edition of your fascinating "Echoes from Old Calcutta" is about to see the light; and, as the advanced copy which I have been privileged to see assures me, that it bears, in so striking a manner, the evidence of your inexhaustible knowledge and untiring erudition. Since first I read this book on my way out to India, I have never failed to find in its pages both a romance and an inspiration: a romance, because with the early days of British dominion in Bengal were interwoven the fortunes of famous men and women as remarkable for the. vicissitudes of their lives as for their talents - an inspiration, because your stimulating narrative must have tempted scores of others, as it tempted me, to explore those obscure but prolific strata of the past from which you have extracted so rich a spoil. Calcutta, frequently designated one of the most commonplace, is, in reality, one of the most interesting cities in the world; and it is not the less interesting because so many of those Europeans who have sojourned there have been only temporary residents whose local footprints have soon been covered up, but who trod the Asiatic stage in the heyday of their youth or ambitions, and then retired, perhaps to make greater reputation or to figure on a wider stage elsewhere. When we recall that, at the period which you have specially illumined, there were living in Calcutta within a space of twenty years characters so diverse or so conspicuous in different ways as Warren Hastings, Sir Philip Francis, Sir Elijah Impey, Rose Aylmer, the painter Zoffany, and the future Princess Talleyrand, one cannot but admit that the period and the place were equally worthy of commemoration.
