  • Release : 1999-01-28

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provincial Lives tells the story of the development of a regional middle class in the antebellum Middle West. It traces the efforts of waves of Americans to transmit their social structures, behavior, and values to the West and construct a distinctive regional middle-class culture on the urban frontier. Intertwining local, regional, and national history with social, immigration, gender and urban history, Mahoney examines how a succession of settlers from "good" society--farmers, entrepreneurs, professionals, and "genteel" men and women from the urban East--interacted with, accommodated, and compromised with those already there to construct a middle-class society.

Book The Great Silent Army of Abolitionism

Download or read book The Great Silent Army of Abolitionism written by Julie Roy Jeffrey and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By focusing on male leaders of the abolitionist movement, historians have often overlooked the great grassroots army of women who also fought to eliminate slavery. Here, Julie Roy Jeffrey explores the involvement of ordinary women--black and white--in the most significant reform movement prior to the Civil War. She offers a complex and compelling portrait of antebellum women's activism, tracing its changing contours over time. For more than three decades, women raised money, carried petitions, created propaganda, sponsored lecture series, circulated newspapers, supported third-party movements, became public lecturers, and assisted fugitive slaves. Indeed, Jeffrey says, theirs was the day-to-day work that helped to keep abolitionism alive. Drawing from letters, diaries, and institutional records, she uses the words of ordinary women to illuminate the meaning of abolitionism in their lives, the rewards and challenges that their commitment provided, and the anguished personal and public steps that abolitionism sometimes demanded they take. Whatever their position on women's rights, argues Jeffrey, their abolitionist activism was a radical step--one that challenged the political and social status quo as well as conventional gender norms.

Book The Stillman Family

Book excerpt: Mr. George Stillman (b.ca1654-1728) was probably born at Steeple Ashton, Wiltshire, England. Previous research indicates that Mr. George Stillman was a descendant of the Styleman family of Steeple Ashton. He emigrated to the colonies and settled first at Hadley, Mass. in 1690 or earlier. He was a widower and left sons George and Samuel in England. His first wife (1) Lady Jane Pickering died at sea. He married (2) Rebecca Smith, at Hadley. They moved to Wethersfield, Connecticut at the time of King Phillip's War. He established his son John in his mercantile business, gave Benjamin a Yale education, gave Nathaniel a homestead and helped his daughters. His eldest son George received 100 pounds plus previous gifts. Dr. George Stillman (1679-1760) was born in England and was trained a tailor. But he also studied medicine and became a doctor. He married Deborah Crandall at Westerly, Rhode Island in 1706. Several generations of descendants are given.

Book They        Fought Bravely  but Were Unfortunate

Download or read book They Fought Bravely but Were Unfortunate written by Daniel M. Popek and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 1029 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rhode Island’s “Black Regiment” of the American Revolutionary War is fairly well-known to students of American History. Most published histories of the small colored battalion from Rhode Island are clearly biased in favor of the “regiment” and tend to interpret it as an elite military unit. However, a detailed study and analysis of Rhode Island’s segregated Continental Line by the author reveals a “military experiment” that was beset with difficulties from its start and ultimately failed as a segregated unit in 1780. In this work, many of the popular stories of Rhode Island’s “Black Regiment” are proven to be myths. Follow the accurate historical stories of the colored and white soldiers of Rhode Island’s Continental Line whose courage and sacrifices helped create an independent nation.
