Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our American Resorts: For Health, Pleasure, and Recreation; Where to Go and How to Get There The work of Planning, gathering materials for and preparing this edition of Our American Resorts was not begun until late in the season, or about the time it should have been ready for the press. It has, therefore, been hurriedly done. Of its shortcomings and imperfections the editor is quite as well aware as will be its severest critics. The difficulties encountered in the preparation of such a work are multitudinous, not the least of which is the tardiness and lack of enterprise among those whose interest it is to have information concerning themselves widely disseminated. For this unbusiness-like backwardness, the many worthless and dishonest publications through which they have been annoyed and defrauded are, no doubt, largely responsible. But this, added to the great difficulty in reaching proprietors of resorts at a season when they are not open, has rendered any approach to completeness in the present issue impossible. Still, the work as it is compares favorably with any of its class heretofore published, and ultimately it shall be vastly superior to them all. Nothing like a Directory has been attempted. A work of that character sufficiently complete to embrace all the nooks and hamlets that consider themselves resorts would require more than a thousand pages of closely-condensed matter, involve interminable labor, and possess no special interest when issued. In these pages an effort has been made to present in readable form with numerous illustrations for embellishment and aid correct impressions of the important resorts and natural wonders within the borders of our own land, including something concerning the characteristics and climates of the localities in which they are situated. The work therefore, without being strictly either a Guide, Gazetteer or Handbook, contains much information pertaining to the realm of travel for health or sight-seeing. On the first of May next a thoroughly revised edition will be issued, containing all that is worth gathering to complete the work, with over one hundred additional illustrations, many of them from new and original sketches, engraved by the best artists. The aim will be to embrace not only all places worthy of note, but to incorporate the fullest details concerning them, their accommodations, and the various routes of travel. A table of railway and steamboat fares between resorts named and the principal cities will also be added. Meanwhile correspondence is solicited with all who may be interested.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An A-to-Z historical encyclopedia of US people, places, and events, with nearly 1,000 entries “all equally well written, crisp, and entertaining” (Library Journal). From the origins of its native peoples to its complex identity in modern times, this unique alphabetical reference covers the political, economic, cultural, and social history of America. A fact-filled treasure trove for history buffs, The Reader’s Companion is sponsored by the Society of American Historians, an organization dedicated to promoting literary excellence in the writing of biography and history. Under the editorship of the eminent historians John A. Garraty and Eric Foner, a large and distinguished group of scholars, biographers, and journalists—nearly four hundred contemporary authorities—illuminate the critical events, issues, and individuals that have shaped our past. Readers will find everything from a chronological account of immigration; individual entries on the Bull Moose Party and the Know-Nothings as well as an article on third parties in American politics; pieces on specific religious groups, leaders, and movements and a larger-scale overview of religion in America. Interweaving traditional political and economic topics with the spectrum of America’s social and cultural legacies—everything from marriage to medicine, crime to baseball, fashion to literature—the Companion is certain to engage the curiosity, interests, and passions of every reader, and also provides an excellent research tool for students and teachers.

Download or read book American Guides written by Wendy Griswold and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the midst of the Great Depression, Americans were nearly universally literate—and they were hungry for the written word. Magazines, novels, and newspapers littered the floors of parlors and tenements alike. With an eye to this market and as a response to devastating unemployment, Roosevelt’s Works Progress Administration created the Federal Writers’ Project. The Project’s mission was simple: jobs. But, as Wendy Griswold shows in the lively and persuasive American Guides, the Project had a profound—and unintended—cultural impact that went far beyond the writers’ paychecks. Griswold’s subject here is the Project’s American Guides, an impressively produced series that set out not only to direct travelers on which routes to take and what to see throughout the country, but also to celebrate the distinctive characteristics of each individual state. Griswold finds that the series unintentionally diversified American literary culture’s cast of characters—promoting women, minority, and rural writers—while it also institutionalized the innovative idea that American culture comes in state-shaped boxes. Griswold’s story alters our customary ideas about cultural change as a gradual process, revealing how diversity is often the result of politically strategic decisions and bureaucratic logic, as well as of the conflicts between snobbish metropolitan intellectuals and stubborn locals. American Guides reveals the significance of cultural federalism and the indelible impact that the Federal Writers’ Project continues to have on the American literary landscape.
