Book excerpt: North Carolina print culture enjoyed significant and steady expansion after the appointment of James Davis as state printer in 1749. Though often marginalized in a national context, North Carolina's newspapers developed in influence and number steadily from 1749 to 1860. First called to publish a uniform rendering of state law, North Carolina's leading newspapers became heavily politicized in the 1790's despite the pressures of the 1798 Sedition Act. The first attempt to create a nonpartisan, popular paper emerged in 1808. As politicized weeklies sought patronage from officeholders and their benefactors, nonpartisan success proved that subscribers and advertising patronage could fuel profits independently from politics. This thesis follows a chronology of newspaper development and economy in the state as it evolved during the late colonial and antebellum period. It examines the financing required to both establish and maintain presses and surveys the returns on newspaper investments for owners, the benefits to professionals engaged in the day-to-day printing trade, and the significance to North Carolinians. This study argues that editors leveraged political power was steadily augmented and leveraged into commercial success by editors during the period from 1749-1861.

Download or read book Writing North Carolina History written by Jeffrey J. Crow and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing North Carolina History is the first book to assess fully the historical literature of North Carolina. It combines the talents and insights of eight noted scholars of state and southern history: William S. Powell, Alan D. Watson, Robert M. Calhoon, Harry L. Watson, Sarah M. Lemmon, and H. G. Jones. Their essays are arranged in chronological order from the founding of the first English colony in North America in 1585 to the present. Traditionally North Carolina has not received the same scholarly attention as Virginia and South Carolina, despite the excellent resources available on Tar Heel history. This study, derived from a symposium sponsored by the North Carolina Division of Archives and History in 1977, asks questions and describes methodologies needed to redress past neglect. Besides providing a comprehensive evaluation of what has been written about North Carolina, the essayists offer perspectives on how historians have interpreted the state's history and what directions future historians need to take. Particularly important, the book provides a bibliography and suggests opportunities for future historical investigation by discussing topics, themes, and source materials that remain untapped or underused. North Carolina's unique and colorful culture, folklore, geography, politics, and growth demand new and creative historical analysis. Collectively the authors and editors of Writing North Carolina History offer a welcome, necessary guide to the study of Tar Heel history. Originally published in 1979.
