    This book has a very good theme but was not written to entertain the mind of a high school teen. The theme of friendship and the theme of telling the truth instead of hiding from it can help you overcome problems with your friend helped me out in life personally. I saw how what someone can see as white lie can produce even worse problems than the problems that would occur for telling the truth. I have been in situations where I could easily get out of a dilemma by lying but it was exceptionally wrong to do so. I thought this story was boring because besides Finny’s death, Finny falling out of the tree, and the “trials” on Gene there wasn’t much action. The writing of Knowles taught me to always do what is right no matter the consequence for it, because there may be greater consequences for not telling the truth.…

    The central idea from “State of the Union Address (1941)” is communicated through observations, examples, and expert testimony. For instance, Roosevelt begins a section of his address with the observation that the elements of a healthy and strong democracy are those people intuitively understand. This supports the central idea. For example, Roosevelt cites specific ways of how to improve the social economy. For expert testimony, Roosevelt expresses confidence in the American people. All of these details support Roosevelt's central idea that the nation can meet the challenges of the new…

    Who knew that one great leader from Dublin, Ireland and another from Hyde Park, New York could share similar ideas, goals, and ways of treatment? Winston Churchill, born on November 30, 1874, was the great leader previously mentioned from Dublin, Ireland. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, born on January 30,1882, was the second from Hyde Park, New York. These two men were leaders during the 1930s and 1940s. I will be comparing and contrasting them. The places they were born was just one difference between them. There are many similarities as well as differences in their political ideologies, their treatment of citizens, and their goals of leadership.…

    At the point when Coolidge moved into the White House, he introduced a rocker on the entryway patio, in which he delighted in sitting in the early night and smoking his stogies. Alice Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt's little girl, got a kick out of the chance to comment that Coolidge looked as though he had been "weaned on a pickle." When he grinned, somebody once said, it was "similar to ice separating in a New England waterway." But quite a bit of his notoriety for hush was intentionally developed; in discourse, as in such a variety of ranges, Coolidge regarded watchfulness the better a portion of valor as well as an instrument of sound…

    I am Herbert Hoover. I was the 31st president of the United States and my term was notably marked by the stock market crash and the beginnings of the Great Depression. I gained a reputation as a humanitarian in World War I by leading hunger-relief efforts in Europe as head of the American Relief Administration. In my early years, I was just an ordinary boy. As the second of three children in a family of Quakers, who valued honesty, industriousness, and simplicity, I strived to honor those principles over the course of my life. I attended several Quaker schools and became part of the first class at Stanford University. I graduated in four years with a degree in geology. I was on track for becoming a mining engineer.…

    Herbert Hoover in his early life went through many trials and tribulations. The man that became president was once a boy with a dark childhood. Herbert Clark Hoover was born on August 10, 1874 in the state of Iowa. At the early age of nine Herbert was left as an orphan. These early experiences of his childhood left him scared with a dark past; because of these experiences from his early life “his boyhood experiences left Hoover permanently reclusive and wary to a degree that not even decades of success could erase, and they would have unfortunate political consequences when he sought to lead the nation” (P1). These experiences of his childhood not only affected him as a child or young adult, but also as an adult that became the president of the United Sates as well.…

    “In 1899, two years before assuming the presidency of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt published an article entitled, “Expansion and Peace" in the popular weekly political magazine the Independent. The article's title perfectly encapsulated Roosevelt's argument that Americans and Europeans needed to work together to guarantee world peace by expanding their civilization through imperial rule” (Walter 319).…

    Some people say that Theodore Roosevelt’s conservation of natural resources is amongst his greatest achievements as president. On May 3, 1908, Theodore Roosevelt held a conference entitled the Conservation of Natural Resources. In this conference he told people of his views on the utilization of natural resources and how the American peoples’ utilization of these resources was wasteful. One example was of the depletion of trees in the forest which could be corrected if the people would simply take the time to replace what they take. This convention marked the beginning of Theodore Roosevelt’s conservation of natural resources movement during his presidency.…

    I really liked the book. The book leaves a little more importance towards the horrible meatpacking industry than towards poverty suffered by the workers. I would recommend this book to everyone because of how interesting the details were and how eye opening it could be to many. I learned a lot from this book especially: being poor can ruin a family, immigrating to a new place to accomplish the American Dream can be a long rocky road, greed ruined thousands of lives and families, meatpacking industry killed and infected a lot of people, not giving up fully can lead to something good coming out of your life even when you’re left with nothing. The book relates to American History by being the cause of the FDA and hope to socialism. The outcome of the story was that nobody cared about the socialism expression, instead they focused on the atrocities of the meat factory and the exploitation of the workers. The book brought much needed attention to the atrocities. So much that Theodore Roosevelt read the novel. He was astounded at the conditions and made a quick move to fight them: Roosevelt established the Food and Drug Administration. The FDA regulated and inspected food products and helped bring an end to the exploitation of workers and unsanitary…

    First the story itself was great. It informed me on how back in the 1900's job lost was never a big problem. Andrew explained how the people who had jobs only wanted time off from work. Andrew then explains how the work industries have limited job openings and longer hours. This makes their current workers tired and frustrated. He supports what he say's by explaining how workers have longer hours, and why their stressed out.…
