Download or read book Lady First written by Amy S. Greenberg and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The little-known story of remarkable First Lady Sarah Polk—a brilliant master of the art of high politics and a crucial but unrecognized figure in the history of American feminism. While the Women’s Rights convention was taking place at Seneca Falls in 1848, First Lady Sarah Childress Polk was wielding influence unprecedented for a woman in Washington, D.C. Yet, while history remembers the women of the convention, it has all but forgotten Sarah Polk. Now, in her riveting biography, Amy S. Greenberg brings Sarah’s story into vivid focus. We see Sarah as the daughter of a frontiersman who raised her to discuss politics and business with men; we see the savvy and charm she brandished in order to help her brilliant but unlikeable husband, James K. Polk, ascend to the White House. We watch as she exercises truly extraordinary power as First Lady: quietly manipulating elected officials, shaping foreign policy, and directing a campaign in support of America’s expansionist war against Mexico. And we meet many of the enslaved men and women whose difficult labor made Sarah’s political success possible. Sarah Polk’s life spanned nearly the entirety of the nineteenth-century. But her own legacy, which profoundly transformed the South, continues to endure. Comprehensive, nuanced, and brimming with invaluable insight, Lady First is a revelation of our twelfth First Lady’s complex but essential part in American feminism.

Download or read book The Joseph Smart Sr Families of Rutherford County North Carolina written by Cynthia Y Whited and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joseph Smart Sr. Families of Rutherford County, North Carolina is the seventh book of genealogy and history written by the two contemporary researchers, Dennis C. Martin and Cynthia Y. Whited. Accumulated over two decades of detailed and extensive research, these seven archives of past events and family histories offer a compelling study in to the lives and former times of many people from western North Carolina, and are sure to be the main source of reference for many years to come for those seeking information regarding their Carolina ancestors. While all the chronicles written by Martin and Whited contain broad and expansive information about hundreds of family surnames and relatives who lived in western North Carolina from the 1700s up to the 1940s, the author's main focus in this beautifully illustrated work is a more comprehensive account of the Joseph Smart Sr. family and descendants, complete with revealing personal sketches, nostalgic photographs, and extended ancestral lineages reaching back to the mid-1700s.The Joseph Smart Sr. Families of Rutherford County, North Carolina contains much of what is found in Volume II of This Too Shall Pass . . ., yet this separate edition contains a more in-depth and sweeping study of the Smart families -- those that remained in Rutherford County, and those that moved west and carried on the family's pioneering spirit. In this book the authors trace the Smart families through the blood lines of Joseph's children and grandchildren by presenting many fascinating stories, such as intriguing accounts of inter-marriage with the Cherokee Indians, incredible sagas of hardship and sacrifice, heartbreaking details of ghastly and gruesome accidental deaths, and heinous tales of cruel hangings and cold-blooded murder. Also included in this volume are two pictorial narratives that both describe and illustrate the discovery and restoration of the Old Joseph Smart Hamrick Family Cemetery, and the recording and documenting of those known to be buried in its hallowed grounds. If you happen to be among the legion of individuals who trace your roots back to the Carolina Piedmont, this cradle of family evolution, it is highly probable that you will find mention of your ancestors within the covers of this book, and the other works of these authors. You will find The Joseph Smart Sr. Families of Rutherford County, North Carolina, as well as the other six publications by these authors, plentifully supplied with attractive illustrations and easy to read stories about our, and your, Carolina kinfolk.
