Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Physicians of Philadelphia and Its Vicinity: An Address at the First Annual Meeting of the Association of Resident Physicians of the Pennsylvania Hospital, December 17th, 1885 The address which follows is one of three discourses delivered by members of the Association of Resident Physicians of the Pennsylvania Hospital, at its first annual meeting. The occasion was one which did not permit any very extended remarks, and a brief sketch only was given by the writer, of the physicians of Philadelphia who practised medicine here in its first two decades. It was a pleasing surprise to him to find how closely these men were linked, by their descendants, with the Pennsylvania Hospital from its inception to the present time. As it is passing through the press, another pleasing surprise presents itself in the fact, which had escaped his notice, that all of the Philadelphia physicians of that time were natives of Wales; a very significant fact, inasmuch as the Welsh immigrants constituted but a part of the population of the new city. Two of the writer's friends have recently shown how large has been the influence of the German life and thought in the United States. The writer, himself of Welsh descent, hopes that some one having more leisure, and more ability than he has, will ere long give the subject the consideration it deserves, and show how much as Philadelphians we owe in medicine, in law, and in religion to our Cymric ancestors. A few foot-notes have been added, but in other respects the address is as it was delivered at the hospital.

Book excerpt: Until publication of Riches, Classes, and Power, Alexis de Tocquerville's vision of the United States as a generally egalitarian nation predominated. While historians might quarrel about the social sources of egalitarianism, they did not dispute the soundness of the basic model; and Tocqueville's vision clearly dominated American's sense of itself as well. A self-acknowledged congenital skeptic, Pessen decided to find out whether the facts of American life sustained Tocqueville's conclusions. Riches, Class, and Power, represents more than five years' intensive research on the wealth, family backgrounds, careers, marriages, residential patterns, uses of leisure, life-styles, social standing, and influence and power of the wealthy in four of the five largest cities in the United States before the Civil War. Pessen examines New York City, Philadelphia, Boston and the then-separate city of Brooklyn in the 1820s and 1840s. His claim is that the massive evidence on urban life of the time sharply refutes Tocqueville's thesis. A National Book Award finalist for history, Riches, Class, and Power undoubtedly helped reshape America before the Civil War. In his reintroduction to this paperback edition, Pessen reviews the critical reaction, and reconsiders the extent to which its findings are applicable to the social structure of small or frontier towns of the period. He discusses whether unequal distribution of wealth in America results more from changes in historical circumstance or to shifts in demographic or age structure.
