Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Tells a story of a period when the quest for accurate timekeeping became an obsession in the US.” —Choice The public spaces and buildings of the United States are home to many thousands of timepieces—bells, time balls, and clock faces—that tower over urban streets, peek out from lobbies, and gleam in store windows. And in the streets and squares beneath them, men, women, and children wear wristwatches of all kinds. Americans have decorated their homes with clocks and included them in their poetry, sermons, stories, and songs. And as political instruments, social tools, and cultural symbols, these personal and public timekeepers have enjoyed a broad currency in art, life, and culture. In Marking Modern Times, Alexis McCrossen relates how the American preoccupation with time led people from across social classes to acquire watches and clocks. While noting the difficulties in regulating and synchronizing so many timepieces, McCrossen expands our understanding of the development of modern time discipline, delving into the ways we have standardized time and describing how timekeepers have served as political, social, and cultural tools in a society that doesn’t merely value time but regards access to time as a natural-born right, a privilege of being an American. “A precise, acute, and well-measured monograph.” —Journal of Social History “Important and engaging.” —Journal of American History “ An innovative contribution on a key historical shift in modern life.” —Urban History “An authoritative narrative of how and where time and timepieces were distributed in the period.” —Reviews in American History

He first took up architecture, but his natural taste soon led him into the working of metals, and he secured a situation in the Springfield Armory, where he remained a number of years. Through the influence of his brother-in-law, Mr. Stratton, he secured a situation with Dennison, Howard and Davis in 1853, where he first worked on fitting trains and was afterwards given steel work, such as regulators, hair spring studs and what is termed flat steel work generally. In the making of regulators, great difficulty was experienced in securing flatness during the tempering, and Mr. Shepard introduced a system of straightening by pressure while the temper was being drawn. He also introduced the use of pulverized Arkansas oil stone for grinding purposes, which proved far better than any grinding powder that has ever been used. Mr, Shepard moved with the company in 1854 to Waltham and for a number of years had charge of the flat steel work. In fact, from the time when only one boy was employed on the job until 1893. All the stem winding and all the flat steel and regulators, clicks and click springs were made in this department, also the damaskeening on the steel work and the fitting of the stem winding of all grades of watches and the gold wheel finishing. Before the factory had adopted the better methods of machinery building, Mr. Shepard developed many crude devices, which were afterwards worked up in machinery of.a better class, such as machines used for rounding regulators, etc., and being a man of good taste in the matters of finishing, he showed a great deal of skill in finishing and polishing steel work, raying and combinations of polish, etc. Mr. Shepard severed his connection with the Waltham factory in 1893, and is now living...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Like its predecessor, this important new work is focused on the connection between trade and investment on the one hand and U.S. foreign policy on the other. David Pletcher describes the trade of the United States with the Far East, the islands of the Pacific, and the northwest coast of North America from 1784 (the year of the first American trading expedition to China) to 1844 (the year of the first trade treaty with China, followed immediately by the U.S. acquisition of Oregon and California). He then traces the growth of trade and investment in Alaska, Hawaii, and the South Pacific from 1844 to 1890 and proceeds to do the same for China, Japan, and Korea. In the ensuing chapters, Pletcher covers the 1890s, including the annexation of Hawaii, the Sino-Japanese War, the acquisition of the Philippines, and the Open Door policy in China. He concludes that the American expansion across the Pacific and into the Far East was not a deliberate, consistent drive for economic hegemony but a halting, experimental, improvised movement, carried out against determined opposition and indifference and dotted with setbacks and failures. Providing his own judgments about the wisdom and effectiveness of America's new endeavors, Pletcher summarizes the problems and handicaps involved, demonstrating that errors of the twentieth century were at least partly the result of poor preparation in the 1880s and 1890s. Touching on every place where Americans undertook significant economic activity, The Diplomacy of Involvementwill be an important aid for seasoned scholars, as well as an excellent introduction for the novice
