Download or read book Richard Potter written by John A. Hodgson and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apart from a handful of exotic--and almost completely unreliable--tales surrounding his life, Richard Potter is almost unknown today. Two hundred years ago, however, he was the most popular entertainer in America--the first showman, in fact, to win truly nationwide fame. Working as a magician and ventriloquist, he personified for an entire generation what a popular performer was and made an invaluable contribution to establishing popular entertainment as a major part of American life. His story is all the more remarkable in that Richard Potter was also a black man. This was an era when few African Americans became highly successful, much less famous. As the son of a slave, Potter was fortunate to have opportunities at all. At home in Boston, he was widely recognized as black, but elsewhere in America audiences entertained themselves with romantic speculations about his "Hindu" ancestry (a perception encouraged by his act and costumes). Richard Potter’s performances were enjoyed by an enormous public, but his life off stage has always remained hidden and unknown. Now, for the first time, John A. Hodgson tells the remarkable, compelling--and ultimately heartbreaking--story of Potter’s life, a tale of professional success and celebrity counterbalanced by racial vulnerability in an increasingly hostile world. It is a story of race relations, too, and of remarkable, highly influential black gentlemanliness and respectability: as the unsung precursor of Frederick Douglass, Richard Potter demonstrated to an entire generation of Americans that a black man, no less than a white man, could exemplify the best qualities of humanity. The apparently trivial "popular entertainment" status of his work has long blinded historians to his significance and even to his presence. Now at last we can recognize him as a seminal figure in American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Click Here to visit Volume II of this book. This book follows the lives of an American family started by John Broome and Rebecca Lloyd after they married in 1769. They already were supporters of the patriot cause and John actively participated in the Revolution. After the Revolution he helped establish the first U.S. government in New York City. Before he died, John Broome had a street in New York City, a county in New York State, and a town in New York named for him. John and Rebecca had nine children. Three of them had descendants whose lives form these two volumes. Over a period of 235 years these three children and their spouses produced over 280 descendants. Together with their spouses and their spouses families there are a total of over 900 related persons mentioned in these two volumes. There are over 80 pictures. Volume I covers the 1st throught the 5th generations of descendants and their spouses. Though many sources are given throughout Volume I, all endnotes for sources are in Volume II. In addition to the Broome family, Volume I has stories of the families of Allen, Boarman, Boggs, Brunnow, Cochran, Hoadley, Keyworth, Livingston, McGlassin, Miller, Nevins, OGorman, OHare, Prince, Randall, Ray, Roller, Sampson, Schempf, Schilling, Shaw, Stevens, Tappan, Toole, and many more in America; and from Europe, de Courval, de Gallifet, de Ligne, de Noailles, and Orlowski. As you read their stories you also follow the evolving development of New York City from its dirt streets and hills to its expansion up Manhattan Island from Wall Street to Greenwich Village to 5th Avenue mansions, from combination business/residences to skyscrapers and high-rise apartments. Youll see who made money and how. Youll see who had harder times financially. Throughout, youll learn how they lived, what they did, and what interested them. Youll see how later generations moved to other parts of America and to Europe. You can read what was written about these people in the newspapers both the good and the bad.
