Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Western literary study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope, Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others. Experience the birth of the modern novel, or compare the development of language using dictionaries and grammar discourses.

Family Historical Legacy
For those interested in heritage and the history lessons that are passed by mouth through family gatherings, A Will of My Own, the memoirs of F. William "Bill" Broome, is the book for you. Historical events of the twentieth century as lived through the common American family are brought to perspective and given relevance beyond textbook statements. Events include the great Depression and World War II.

Broomecaptures legacies of the old South from his native Georgia. His wit and humor stir the events of his outlined life from early childhood to senior citizen. The memoirs are mostly reflections, and circulate around personal life in the midst of deep political changes. They are at times dry and drawn out, but would be fully appreciated by any family member.

A great historical look at southern New York State
Mrs. Thomas has taken a novel approach to a very interesting and enchanting subject.She looks upon the towns in and around Binghamton, NY with the whit and whimsey of someone who cares very deeply about the area and its rich history.Mrs. Thomas leaves no stone unturned in searching out the nooks and crannies of Broome County and describing in rich detail how these little hamlets got their names.A great read for anyone interested in the history of town names or New York State itself.Highly recommended!!!! ...

A Piece of Art
This book is a pleasurable treasure.
Its theme, the cover art, layout and the body of poems blend into one of the most unique and entertaining reads a person could hope for.
The poetry in this collection is rich in life experience, imagery and language, written in an easy, conversational style. Reading this book is like sitting across from the author, sharing a cup of tea or coffee, discussing the myriad aspects of life.
F. William Broome has given us more than delightful and thought provoking slices of life in this book...he has given us intimate glimpses of himself, the man holding the pen, so to speak.
Windmills Beyond La Mancha is a piece of art that should be in every ones library. ... Read more

The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.

Product Description
Here is outdoor literature at it's best, written by a man who had a discerning eye and who was on a wave length with the life he encountered in the wilds. The reader shares the exhilaration and the discomforts of Harvey Broome on these outings and at the end puts down the book feeling that he has been on the seashores, in the deserts, and high on the mountains with a man who loved the earth and honored it for its mystery and beauty.-William O. Douglas ... Read more
