    Vintage Verse is a special collection of poems that are as apropos today as when they were written between 1889 and the mid-1940s by James Ball Naylor. The poems were culled from treasured family scrapbooks by Lucile Naylor as a tribute to her father, the best-selling author of Ralph Marlowe in 1901. Most of the poems appeared in newspapers and magazine but were not included in any of the seven volumes of collected verse that Naylor published during his lifetime. His poetry was written for ordinary folks and touches on the beauty of nature, portrays family life, pays tribute to the flag and the veterans of our wars, addresses political issues and tickles the funny bone. The poems in Vintage Verse linger and take you on a journey down memory lane--there's a little something for everybody. The volume includes special selections that are appropriate for this, the first in a Tribute Series to James Ball Naylor. It is edited and annotated by Theresa Marie Flaherty, the author of The Final Test - A Biography of James Ball Naylor.

  • - A Tale of Tecumseh and Tippecanoe
    von James Ball Naylor
    36,00 €

    The Shawnee leader Tecumseh, who has been hailed by many as the greatest Indian leader of all time,.came closer than any other before or after him to saving his people from total destruction by the whites on the eastern frontier in the early 19th century. If Sitting Bull is the most famous Indian, Tecumseh is the most revered - the shadowy figure who created a loose confederacy of diverse Indian tribes that extended from the Ohio territory northeast to New York, south into the Florida peninsula, westward to Nebraska, and north into Canada. A warrior as well as a diplomat, the great Shawnee chief was a man of passionate ambitions. Spurred by commitment and served by a formidable battery of personal qualities that made him the principal organizer and the driving force of confederacy, Tecumseh kept the embers of resistence alive against a federal government that talked cooperation but practiced genocide following the Revolutionary War. Tecumseh does not stand for one tribe or nation, but for all Native Americans. Despite his failed attempt at solidarity, he remains the ultimate symbol of endeavor and courage, unity and fraternity. Of Indian chief Tecumseh, U.S. president William Henry Harrison said, "If it were not for the vicinity of the United States, he would, perhaps, be the founder of an empire that would rival in glory that of Mexico or Peru." James Ball Naylor, noted author, poet, and doctor, is one of the most prolific writers of early Ohio history. Living from 1860 to 1945, Naylor wrote a number of poetry books and historical novels focusing much of his attention upon the main figures involved in the struggles between frontier settlers and Indian tribes in the Ohio territory.
