Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Vernon House, in Newport, R. I There stands in the ancient town of Newport, on the Island of Rhode Island, a house of unusual historic interest. This house has recently been purchased under circumstances which ensure its permanent preservation. It is therefore now entitled to a review of its past, and it has been thought that it would be agreeable and fitting at this time, to consider, somewhat in detail, the scenes that it has witnessed and the distinguished persons who have been entertained within its walls. To such a retrospect, this paper is dedicated. The State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, to give it its full title, is the smallest in the Union. It is, nevertheless, as its name indicates, made up of two very distinct parts. Two capitals, persisting to modern times, long reminded us of this dual origin. Providence was founded by the Salem minister, Roger Williams; Rhode Island by a body of men from Massachusetts Bay who differed from the Puritan tenets, and desired liberty of conscience. With this in view, they came hither to found in the wilderness a state, in which, following the inner light, they might also assure to others the freedom which they had been denied. The first settlement on this island was made in 1638. Newport was founded in the following year - May, 1639. Of the nine adventurers who were banded together in this enterprise, one is of special interest to us, for it is on his original grant that the "Vernon House" stands.

This book was released on 2004-07-21 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Women and the Historical Enterprise in America, Julie Des Jardins explores American women's participation in the practice of history from the late nineteenth century through the end of World War II, a period in which history became professionalized as an increasingly masculine field of scientific inquiry. Des Jardins shows how women nevertheless transformed the profession during these years in their roles as writers, preservationists, educators, archivists, government workers, and social activists. Des Jardins explores the work of a wide variety of women historians, both professional and amateur, popular and scholarly, conservative and radical, white and nonwhite. Although their ability to earn professional credentials and gain research access to official documents was limited by their gender (and often by their race), these historians addressed important new questions and represented social groups traditionally omitted from the historical record, such as workers, African Americans, Native Americans, and religious minorities. Assessing the historical contributions of Mary Beard, Zora Neale Hurston, Angie Debo, Mari Sandoz, Lucy Salmon, Mary McLeod Bethune, Dorothy Porter, Nellie Neilson, and many others, Des Jardins argues that women working within the broadest confines of the historical enterprise collectively brought the new perspectives of social and cultural history to the study of a multifaceted American past. In the process, they not only developed the field of women's history but also influenced the creation of our national memory in the twentieth century.
