    Message to Garcia

    Ninety-nine, Washington's Birthday, and we were just going to press with the March "Philistine." The thing leaped hot from my heart, written after a trying day, when I had been endeavoring to train some rather delinquent villagers to abjure the comatose state and get radioactive. The immediate suggestion, though, came from a little argument over the teacups, when my boy Bert suggested that Rowan was the real hero of the Cuban War. Rowan had gone alone and done the thing-carried the message to Garcia. It came to me like a flash! Yes, the boy is right, the hero is the man who does his work--who carries the message to Garcia. I got up from the table, and wrote "A Message to Garcia." I thought so little of it that we ran it in the Magazine without a heading. The edition went out, and soon orders began to come for extra copies of the March "Philistine," a dozen, fifty, a hundred; and when…

    The Message of the Gettysburg Address

    In 1863, the sixteenth President of the United States found himself engulfed by a horrific civil war and in leading his people to victory, Abraham Lincoln found himself in a predicament that required a well thought out motivational presentation. He found that opportunity with the address at Gettysburg. President Lincoln knew his people were dissatisfied with the loss of so many comrades and knew there must be a way he could prove that the lives of so many fallen soldiers, husbands, and sons were worth the efforts to restore the land of the free. The statement made in the Gettysburg Address to the people was a perfect example and in essence the embodiment of perfect communication.…

    Sam Adams

    Among those who signed the Declaration of Independence, and were conspicuous in the revolution, there existed, of course, a great diversity of intellectual endowments; nor did all render to their country, in those perilous days, the same important services. Like the luminaries of heavens each contributed his portion of influence; but, like them, they differed, as star differeth from star in glory. But in the constellation of great men, which adorned that era, few shone with more brilliancy, or exercised a more powerful influence than Samuel Adams.…

    President Abraham Lincoln's Thoughts on His "Gettysburg Address"

    I am the 16th president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. I come from humble beginnings and never finished school. My love for reading and learning led me to a career in law. I was able to manage this by “studying independently the law books of the time: Blackstone’s Commentaries, Chitty’s Pleadings, Greenleaf’s Evidence, and Story’s Equity and Equity Pleadings” (Levine 733). My law career led me to a career in politics. I held offices in Illinois before being elected to Congress. Now, I am the leader of a divided nation in the throes of a vicious civil war. I have a duty to deliver this address, not just to honor the dead; but to inspire the living. To persuade my countrymen that, indeed, this war is not only about keeping the country united, but also those rights of equality which every man is endowed with. This speech, (which will later be well-known as “The Gettysburg Address”) like many of mine, was influenced by the Bible and the Declaration of Independence. The Bible and the Declaration of Independence are two documents which I regard in the highest authority. Members of my cabinet that accompanied me on the trip to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, describe my face as having a “ghastly color”. On the way to deliver the address, I did not feel well. I remarked to some of my travelling companions of feeling dizzy. Although I didn’t know it, I was coming down with smallpox.…

    Frederick Douglass's Autobiography

    The article about Frederick Douglass’s autobiography really gave an inside look at the way slaves were so severely mistreated by their masters. It also really exemplifies how valuable an education is. Before actually getting into Douglass’s autobiography, the article begins by discussing how compelling Frederick Douglass’s story was. He was a black man born into slavery and was able to runaway and escape. He was self-educated, he taught himself how to read and write. When he spoke and shared his story people really sympathized. The way that slaves were treated in the south was a lot different from how…
