Scottish Colonial Schemes, 1620-1686
This publication provides a comprehensive account of the Scottish Colonial Schemes that took place between the years 1620 and 1686. Delving into the various attempts made by the Scottish to establish colonies in North America during this period, each chapter details different colonial ventures as the author discusses various motives behind Scottish emigration and the influence of military and economic trends. Despite their failure to establish a Scottish colony in the Americas, these early attempts played a significant role in shaping the country's future endeavors in the New World. From the motivations behind the schemes to the challenges faced by the colonists, this volume provides an insightful look at Scotland's attempts at colonization.Along with an index arranged alphabetically by subject or surname, the author concludes this work with six appendices providing records from the French protest against the Scottish expedition of 1623, the date of settlement of Scots at Port Royal in Acadie, "A note of all suche things as the company hath in Canada", Barbados correspondence concerning Scottish settlers, Broadside by Robert Barclay, letters from Scot of Pitlochie's "model", and proposals by Walter Gibson.
Kentucky Memories of Uncle Sam Williams
Sam Williams was born in Paris, Kentucky, in 1831. He became a newspaper man and worked on papers in Kentucky and Illinois until after the Civil War. He then moved to Kansas City where he was part-owner of two different papers. He came to the St. Louis Post and worked with Joseph Pulitzer. He died in St. Louis in 1928.Sam Williams' grandmother "remembered riding in George Washington's carriage" and his father, "as a small boy, peeped over through the side-boards of a wagon and saw American Revolutionary War soldiers marching to fight. ... When he determined to put some of these tales, some of his family history, in written form, Samuel Williams used as his sources his own good memory, several biographical and genealogical works, and a few fragments he possessed of his father's autobiography. He arranged the material around certain members of his family: his grandfather Williams, his parents, his brothers and sisters and his daughter Clara." Two appendices and an index to full-names, places and subjects add to the value of this work.

Kanji Memorization Drills, Version Two
This is the second version of our series Kanji Memorization Drills. It consists of drills that teach 1,208 kanji and their pronunciations. Before you start using it, I suggest that you complete our first two Japanese Readers, Learn to Read in Japanese, Volumes I and II. After that, please consider alternating between the books, first drilling yourself on the kanji and then re-reading the text in the Readers. On each of the pages in this book, you will see three columns. In the first column, there is a kanji character followed by a small number that indicates the number of pronunciations that you should try to learn for that character. In the second column, you will see the kanji's unique listing number, taken from the Kanji Catalogue in the Reader. Also in the second column, there are mnemonics (which we also call Cues in the Catalogue) that are designed to approximate the Japanese pronunciations and help you to remember them. Finally, in the third column, there are sample Japanese words that contain the actual kanji readings. Where feasible, I have sorted the kanji into informal groups of similar characters and arranged these characters so that they fit within the confines of a single page, to make it easier for students to compare them. In order to use this book effectively, I suggest that you use three tools: 1) an index card, about 3 x 5 inches in size, 2) a pen with a fine point and 3) an eraser tool. The purpose of the index card is to conceal the second and third columns while you test yourself on the pronunciations of the kanji characters in the first column. The purpose of the pen is to make small erasable dots in the margin to the left of any kanji whose pronunciations you cannot readily recall. Finally, the purpose of the eraser tool is to erase those dots after you have successfully re-tested yourself on the missed kanji. I recommend that you use the "Pentel Presto Jumbo Correction Pen Fine Point" for the eraser tool. Studying kanji through memorization drills can have a calming effect on the mind. Sitting away from electronic screens, one holds a drill book and an index card, focusing on a single isolated kanji character while trying to recall its shape and its various pronunciations. When an error is made, the only consequence is a small dot in the margin - a gentle prompt to come back and review the character later. In contrast, the correct identification of a kanji and its readings delivers a brief rush of energy and a renewed sense of confidence. I hope that the drills in this volume will help you to achieve Japanese reading fluency.
