Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir of the Life of Harriet Preble, Containing Portions of Her Correspondence, Journal and Other Writings, Literary and Religious, 1856 The satisfaction I have experienced in reading in the proof-sheets the pages which follow, may, perhaps, be my apology for venturing in these few lines to commend this memoir to general perusal. After making all due allowance for the prepossession arising from personal acquaintance almost from childhood with the admirable woman of whom it is a just portraiture, and for the memory of beautiful days, long past, spent in the bosom of that refined and happy family at Draveil, so often referred to in the following pages, there cannot be any mistake, I would fain believe, in assuming that this volume, presenting indeed only the simple annals of a pure and simple life, and developing the growth of one loving heart and highly cultivated intellect, as yet unimproved by the truths of Christianity, into the perfection of Christian faith and practice, will yet make its way to general favor. Of its influence for good, wherever read, I cannot at all doubt, and its teachings will be all the more effective that they are not didactic but practical, embodied in actual results and not in barren precepts. By mere readers for amusement, moreover, this volume will be found attractive, for it speaks of celebrated times and celebrated persons, and, in a merely literary aspect, it has high claims.

Book excerpt: “Who knew the humble pocket could hold so much history? In this enthralling and always surprising account, Hannah Carlson turns the pocket inside out and out tumble pocket watches, coins, pistols, and a riveting centuries-long social and political history.” ―Jill Lepore, author of These Truths: A History of the United States Pockets "showcases the best features of cultural history: a lively combination of visual, literary and documentary evidence. As sumptuously illustrated as it is learned … this highly inventive and original book demands a pocket sequel.” ―Jane Kamensky, Wall Street Journal Who gets pockets, and why? It’s a subject that stirs up plenty of passion: Why do men’s clothes have so many pockets and women’s so few? And why are the pockets on women’s clothes often too small to fit phones, if they even open at all? In her captivating book, Hannah Carlson, a lecturer in dress history at the Rhode Island School of Design, reveals the issues of gender politics, security, sexuality, power, and privilege tucked inside our pockets. Throughout the medieval era in Europe, the purse was an almost universal dress feature. But when tailors stitched the first pockets into men’s trousers five hundred years ago, it ignited controversy and introduced a range of social issues that we continue to wrestle with today, from concealed pistols to gender inequality. See: #GiveMePocketsOrGiveMeDeath. Filled with incredible images, this microhistory of the humble pocket uncovers what pockets tell us about ourselves: How is it that putting your hands in your pockets can be seen as a sign of laziness, arrogance, confidence, or perversion? Walt Whitman’s author photograph, hand in pocket, for Leaves of Grass seemed like an affront to middle-class respectability. When W.E.B. Du Bois posed for a portrait, his pocketed hands signaled defiant coolness. And what else might be hiding in the history of our pockets? (There’s a reason that the contents of Abraham Lincoln’s pockets are the most popular exhibit at the Library of Congress.) Thinking about the future, Carlson asks whether we will still want pockets when our clothes contain “smart” textiles that incorporate our IDs and credit cards. Pockets is for the legions of people obsessed with pockets and their absence, and for anyone interested in how our clothes influence the way we navigate the world.
