Even the numerous bridges of the town, which gave to her the Flemish title, Bruges, look lifeless and deserted, and most of the occupants of the handsome houses of the olden time are wealthy merchants who have retired from business, to spend the last years of their lives in absolute tranquillity. There seems to be no danger of its being disturbed. I could not see that any business, save a little petty traffic, was transacted here, and it is said that nearly one-third of the inhabitants of Bruges are paupers. Beggars and guides annoyed us so persistently that, in self-defence as well as pity, AN OLD CANAL, BRUGES we finally hired a "c0mmissi0naire," and gave all our spare pennies to the mendicants. I think we also saved a wretched cabman from committing suicide, by hiring his dilapidated vehi cle at the astonishing price of twenty-five cents an hour! Cabs are, in fact, so cheap and slow in Bruges that I should have taken one from morning till night, if I had only had plenty of time. Shaken about in one of these decrepit vehicles, driven over ges, and when its time-honored chimes ring out upon the air, one can imagine them trying to arouse the lifeless city to a realization of her former glory; reminding her that in the fifteenth century she was wealthier than even Antwerp; that ships from Venice, Genoa, and the distant East unloaded here their precious cargoes; that once, as a result of civil war, two hundred wagons were kept busy for a fortnight transporting loads of gold, silver, and valuable goods to the victorious city, Ghent; that twenty foreign ministers lived then within her gates; that here a German King was held prisoner twelve days, despite the threats of royal armies; and that the Queen of...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Histories of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era tend to characterize the United States as an expansionist nation bent on Americanizing the world without being transformed itself. In Consumers' Imperium, Kristin Hoganson reveals the other half of the story, demonstrating that the years between the Civil War and World War I were marked by heightened consumption of imports and strenuous efforts to appear cosmopolitan. Hoganson finds evidence of international connections in quintessentially domestic places--American households. She shows that well-to-do white women in this era expressed intense interest in other cultures through imported household objects, fashion, cooking, entertaining, armchair travel clubs, and the immigrant gifts movement. From curtains to clothing, from around-the-world parties to arts and crafts of the homelands exhibits, Hoganson presents a new perspective on the United States in the world by shifting attention from exports to imports, from production to consumption, and from men to women. She makes it clear that globalization did not just happen beyond America's shores, as a result of American military might and industrial power, but that it happened at home, thanks to imports, immigrants, geographical knowledge, and consumer preferences. Here is an international history that begins at home.
