Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Squatter Sovereign, or Kansas in the '50's: A Life Picture of the Early Settlement of the Debatable Ground; A Story, Founded Upon Memorable, and Historical Events, Whose Characters Have Been Carefully Chosen to Represent the Various Types of Men, and Women Who Met Upon the Kansas Plains Intent on S Having long been deeply impressed with the national significance of the preliminary strife engendered upon the plains of Kansas on the promulgation of the doctrine of Squatter Sovereignty, by the determination of each section of the Union to obtain supremacy, and filled with admira tion for the patriotic and noble souls who led the vanguard of freedom in the irrepressible conflict, through hardship and toil, through privation and danger, through misunderstanding, contumely, and misrepresentation, I have been impelled to disinter some of the leading events from beneath the weight of later memories of the civil war and its great achievements, and to embody them, while sources of information are still accessible, in a more enduring form. And, believing that the highest form of history is that which makes apparent 'to the reader the effect of great movements upon individuals and communities, I have care fully collected and strung together the threads of fact, weaving them into a story with the golden woof of fiction, hoping that the web might prove acceptable for the intrinsic value of the material though wrought by a prentice hand.

Book Shantytown  USA

Download or read book Shantytown USA written by Lisa Goff and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-25 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word “shantytown” conjures images of crowded slums in developing nations. Though their history is largely forgotten, shantytowns were a prominent feature of one developing nation in particular: the United States. Lisa Goff restores shantytowns to the central place they once occupied in America’s urban landscape, showing how the basic but resourcefully constructed dwellings of America’s working poor were not merely the byproducts of economic hardship but potent assertions of self-reliance. In the nineteenth century, poor workers built shantytowns across America’s frontiers and its booming industrial cities. Settlements covered large swaths of urban property, including a twenty-block stretch of Manhattan, much of Brooklyn’s waterfront, and present-day Dupont Circle in Washington, D.C. Names like Tinkersville and Hayti evoked the occupations and ethnicities of shantytown residents, who were most often European immigrants and African Americans. These inhabitants defended their civil rights and went to court to protect their property and resist eviction, claiming the benefits of middle-class citizenship without its bourgeois trappings. Over time, middle-class contempt for shantytowns increased. When veterans erected an encampment near the U.S. Capitol in the 1930s President Hoover ordered the army to destroy it, thus inspiring the Depression-era slang “Hoovervilles.” Twentieth-century reforms in urban zoning and public housing, introduced as progressive efforts to provide better dwellings, curtailed the growth of shantytowns. Yet their legacy is still felt in sites of political activism, from shanties on college campuses protesting South African apartheid to the tent cities of Occupy Wall Street demonstrations.
