Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stranger Citizens examines how foreign migrants who resided in the United States gave shape to citizenship in the decades after American independence in 1783. During this formative time, lawmakers attempted to shape citizenship and the place of immigrants in the new nation, while granting the national government new powers such as deportation. John McNelis O'Keefe argues that despite the challenges of public and official hostility that they faced in the late 1700s and early 1800s, migrant groups worked through lobbying, engagement with government officials, and public protest to create forms of citizenship that worked for them. This push was made not only by white men immigrating from Europe; immigrants of color were able to secure footholds of rights and citizenship, while migrant women asserted legal independence, challenging traditional notions of women's subordination. Stranger Citizens emphasizes the making of citizenship from the perspectives of migrants themselves, and demonstrates the rich varieties and understandings of citizenship and personhood exercised by foreign migrants and refugees. O'Keefe boldly reverses the top-down model wherein citizenship was constructed only by political leaders and the courts. Thanks to generous funding from the Sustainable History Monograph Pilot and the Mellon Foundation the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access (OA) volumes from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other Open Access repositories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philadelphia as It Is, and Citizen's Advertising Directory: Containing a General Description of the City and Environs, List of Officers, Public Institutions, and Other Useful Information; For the Convenience of Citizens, as a Book of Reference, and a Guide to Strangers, With a New Map of the City This work has been undertaken, from a belief that something of the kind is wanted, by citizens and strangers, as a book of reference, and guide to the numerous business concerns of this extensive city. Philadelphia as it is, comprises every information which may be required, and which, it is believed, cannot be obtained elsewhere without much loss of time. It occupies a place hitherto unattempted, and forms a complete manual for the merchant and traveller, presenting a statistical view of the city, with the most important and useful details for the more frequent subjects of inquiry. Great labour has been bestowed in collecting and arranging the materials, and the general accuracy of the work can be depended on. Omissions must, of course, be expected, in a first attempt; and the publisher will be thankful to gentlemen who will point out any errors, which will be corrected in future editions.
