  • ISBN : 9780738584072
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book Jefferson Barracks written by Sandie Grassino and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it was founded in 1826, Jefferson Barracks has stood for nearly two centuries as a symbol for many aspects of America's history. Many explorative expeditions in the 19th century launched from Jefferson Barracks, an iconic gateway to the West during the country's expansion. A training ground for new programs, Jefferson Barracks was the home of America's first permanent Dragoons (later the United States Cavalry), first School of Infantry, and first regiment of buffalo soldiers. The largest induction and mustering-out center during both the First and Second World Wars, it housed and trained a myriad of soldiers before and after their deployments. Now the home of the Missouri Air National Guard, a Veterans Administration hospital, Jefferson Barracks Historic Park, a national cemetery, and a growing museum district, Jefferson Barracks is preserving its place in history as well as serving toward America's future. The historic images in this book illustrate a rich history of Jefferson Barracks through some of its citizen soldiers--famous and not--and through the incidents that made it an American icon.

Book Opening the Ozarks

  • Author : Walter A. Schroeder
  • Publisher : University of Missouri Press
  • Release : 2002
  • ISBN : 0826263062
  • Pages : 576 pages

Download or read book Opening the Ozarks written by Walter A. Schroeder and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the oldest European settlement in Missouri, Ste. Genevieve was the funnel through which the eastern Ozarks (the 5,000 square miles beyond Ste. Genevieve's location on the Mississippi) was established. A magisterial account of the settlement of this area from 1760 through 1830, Opening the Ozarks focuses on the acquisition and occupation of land, the transformation of the environment, the creation of cohesive settlements, and the building of neighborhoods and eventually organized counties. The study begins with the French Creole settlement at Old Ste. Genevieve in the middle of the eighteenth century. It describes the movement of the French into the Ozark hills during the rest of that century and continues with that of the American immigrants into Upper Louisiana after 1796, ending with the Americanization of the district after the Louisiana Purchase. Walter Schroeder examines the cultural transition from a French society, operating under a Spanish administration, to an American society in which French, Indians, and Africans formed minorities.

Book Rediscovering Thomas C  Fletcher

Download or read book Rediscovering Thomas C Fletcher written by Stephen F. Huss Ph.D. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-12-26 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although he had been the first Republican governor in the history of the state, the first native-born governor, the last Civil War governor, the first Reconstruction governor, an internationally respected attorney, the friend of at least five US presidents, and a nationally recognized war hero, most Missourians have never heard of Thomas Clement Fletcher. His efforts essentially repaired a war-devastated state, began reconciliation, and could serve as a model for political and personal leadership in a divided populace. Throughout his life, he advocated for veterans, Native Americans, and other minority rights and for an equitable justice system. He did so in the halls of Congress, state and federal courts, and the US Supreme Court with grace, determination, and integrity. This book illuminates his life through the use of never-before-seen resources and critical analysis to bring him to life.
