Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the North-Western Editorial Excursion to Arkansas: A Short Sketch of Its Inception and the Routes Traveled Over, the Manner in Which the Editors Were Received, the Resolutions Adopted and Speeches Made at Various Points Crossmg'the river this hack, by invitation, to meet our guests upon 'the farther bank of the Arkansas, I stepped, while waiting, the arrivalof the shops of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railway, Where was being constructed a cabinet of timber grown entirely in this State. It was nearly finished, and was a most beautiful specimen of mechanical skill. It was intended, I lea1ned, for exhibition, first at the coming Fair in St. Louis, 'and then at the, Centennial. The kinds of timber used were ash, beech, bois d'arc, ' cherry, cedar, cypress, gum, holly, hickory, oak, poplar, pine and walnut, and certainly these woods had never taken more attractive form. The conspicuous red of the cedar, the clear White' of the holly, the rich, dark brown of the walnut rivalled the painter's art, and another trophy was borne away by nature. I felt proud of the State of my adoption. I could see m that cabinet, as any one else could see, possibilities of which we have as yet a very inadequate conception. A million times over that exquisite piece of workxnan ship could be reproduced in Arkansas, and 'yet her forests' would stand well nigh as they now stand, thick; loftyf'and umbrageous, an invitation to the capital of 'other States, and a sure reward for 'the industry of the mechanic.'

Download or read book Arkansas Arkansaw written by Brooks Blevins and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do Scott Joplin, John Grisham, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, Maya Angelou, Brooks Robinson, Helen Gurley Brown, Johnny Cash, Alan Ladd, and Sonny Boy Williamson have in common? They’re all Arkansans. What do hillbillies, rednecks, slow trains, bare feet, moonshine, and double-wides have in common? For many in America these represent Arkansas more than any Arkansas success stories do. In 1931 H. L. Mencken described AR (not AK, folks) as the “apex of moronia.” While, in 1942 a Time magazine article said Arkansas had “developed a mass inferiority complex unique in American history.” Arkansas/Arkansaw is the first book to explain how Arkansas’s image began and how the popular culture stereotypes have been perpetuated and altered through succeeding generations. Brooks Blevins argues that the image has not always been a bad one. He discusses travel accounts, literature, radio programs, movies, and television shows that give a very positive image of the Natural State. From territorial accounts of the Creole inhabitants of the Mississippi River Valley to national derision of the state’s triple-wide governor’s mansion to Li’l Abner, the Beverly Hillbillies, and Slingblade, Blevins leads readers on an entertaining and insightful tour through more than two centuries of the idea of Arkansas. One discovers along the way how one state becomes simultaneously a punch line and a source of admiration for progressives and social critics alike. Winner, 2011 Ragsdale Award
