Book Synopsis The History of an American Pioneer Family by : Leo Jay Smith
Download or read book The History of an American Pioneer Family written by Leo Jay Smith and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-30 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume in this series introduces the author's maternal ancestors, who were among the first to settle on the East Coast of North America. More than half of the Mortimores lived in the New England colonies, with some arriving on the Mayflower. Many participated in the American Revolution. Relying mostly on historical documents, the author pieces together a story that spans more than a century in the life of the Mortimore family as they migrated from the East Coast through the Northwest Territory and eventually settled in Iowa. You'll meet larger-than-life characters like Jack Mortimore, who left his family for three years with no explanation and returned to complain about how they'd run things while he was gone. You'll thrill to the courage of heroes such as Rachel Combs, the midwife who let nothing get in the way of helping the women who needed her-not even a bear in her path. And you will be delighted by everyday eccentrics like Jim Mortimore, who was very proud of his job as skunk controller for the town of Saratoga, Wyoming. Soldiers, pioneers, farmers, artisans, visionaries-the story of the Mortimore family is the story of this country's courage and curiosity, making this book a treasure for anyone interested in America's westward expansion.

Book Synopsis Domestic Revolutions by : Steven Mintz
Download or read book Domestic Revolutions written by Steven Mintz and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1989-04-03 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of how the concept of “family” has been transformed over the last three centuries in the U.S., from its function as primary social unit to today’s still-evolving model. Based on a wide reading of letters, diaries and other contemporary documents, Mintz, an historian, and Kellogg, an anthropologist, examine the changing definition of “family” in the United States over the course of the last three centuries, beginning with the modified European model of the earliest settlers. From there they survey the changes in the families of whites (working class, immigrants, and middle class) and blacks (slave and free) since the Colonial years, and identify four deep changes in family structure and ideology: the democratic family, the companionate family, the family of the 1950s, and lastly, the family of the '80s, vulnerable to societal changes but still holding together.
Book Synopsis Empires, Nations, and Families by : Anne Farrar Hyde
Download or read book Empires, Nations, and Families written by Anne Farrar Hyde and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To most people living in the West, the Louisiana Purchase made little difference: the United States was just another imperial overlord to be assessed and manipulated. This was not, as Empires, Nations, and Families makes clear, virgin wilderness discovered by virtuous Anglo entrepreneurs. Rather, the United States was a newcomer in a place already complicated by vying empires. This book documents the broad family associations that crossed national and ethnic lines and that, along with the river systems of the trans-Mississippi West, formed the basis for a global trade in furs that had operated for hundreds of years before the land became part of the United States. ø Empires, Nations, and Families shows how the world of river and maritime trade effectively shifted political power away from military and diplomatic circles into the hands of local people. Tracing family stories from the Canadian North to the Spanish and Mexican borderlands and from the Pacific Coast to the Missouri and Mississippi rivers, Anne F. Hyde?s narrative moves from the earliest years of the Indian trade to the Mexican War and the gold rush era. Her work reveals how, in the 1850s, immigrants to these newest regions of the United States violently wrested control from Native and other powers, and how conquest and competing demands for land and resources brought about a volatile frontier culture?not at all the peace and prosperity that the new power had promised.
