Book excerpt: Beautifully illustrated, this collection of essays will introduce the reader to a rich, surprising, thought-provoking, and entirely new view of early New England. Eleven essays written by historians, archaeologists, art and architectural historians, and literary scholars recast our understanding of New England by setting its material and visual culture in new contexts. Essays on the archaeology of seventeenth-century Maine settlements, the geographical knowledge of Salem sailors and ship captains, the mid-eighteenth-century cartographic depictions of Boston, and the built environment of Maine in the early nineteenth century all place New England into the broader purview of a transoceanic movement of people, ideas, and objects.

Book excerpt: This book is a very special look at the life and work of a unique New England photographer whose technical interests and artistic eye captured plain facts and fine beauty in his photographic compositions. Some of his photography reveals an interest in current events that caused him to be the occassional photojournalist. His early work as an instructor of photography and art previews his fine skill in composing his plates. This is the first book of Coolidge's photography ever produced. The collection of 200 photographs in this book portrays Woods Hole, Massachusetts, the islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, as well as the surrounding coastal area of the Elizabeth Islands and villages along Buzzards Bay. It also includes historic scenes of Boston, the North Shore, mills along the Merrimack River, a coastal village in Maine, a rural town in New Hampshire and many maritime scenes. Each plate has been printed by the duotone process to give a near approximation of the sepia tones used by Coolidge in his original prints.--Book jacket.

Book Synopsis A Landscape History of New England by : Blake A. Harrison
Download or read book A Landscape History of New England written by Blake A. Harrison and published by Mit Press. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a view of New England's landscapes that goes beyond picture postcard-ready vistas of white-steepled churches, open pastures, and tree-covered mountains. Its chapters describe, for example, the Native American presence in the Maine Woods; offer a history of agriculture told through stone walls, woodlands, and farm buildings; report on the fragile ecology of tourist-friendly Cape Cod beaches; and reveal the ethnic stereotypes informing Colonial Revivalism. Taken together, they offer a wide-ranging history of New England's diverse landscapes, stretching across two centuries. The book shows that all New England landscapes are the products of human agency as well as nature. The authors trace the roles that work, recreation, historic preservation, conservation, and environmentalism have played in shaping the region, and they highlight the diversity of historical actors who have transformed both its meaning and its physical form. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines, including history, geography, environmental studies, literature, art history, and historic preservation, the book provides fresh perspectives on New England's many landscapes: forests, mountains, farms, coasts, industrial areas, villages, towns, and cities. Illustrated, and with many archival photographs, it offers readers a solid historical foundation for understanding the great variety of places that make up New England.

Book Synopsis Surviving New England by : Callum Clayton-Dixon
Download or read book Surviving New England written by Callum Clayton-Dixon and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our people had thrived here on the so-called New England Tableland since the first sunrise. But in the 1830s, squatters began invading the region with their plagues of livestock. Colonization plunged Aboriginal society into utter chaos, driving us off our lands and decimating the traditional way of life. The traumas of the early colonial period remain carved deeply into the country and its people. But because of our ancestors' struggles, their fierce resistance, their unyielding determination to survive, we are still here. Clouded by the great conspiracy of silence, the dominant myth of peaceful settlement, and the proliferation of Eurocentric narratives touting the achievements of explorers and pastoral pioneers, our people's remarkable history of resistance and survival during the first few decades of the occupation has faded into obscurity. It is their story which this book sets out to reclaim, co-opting the colonial archive and subverting the colonial narrative, deconstructing their story in order to uncover our own.

Book Synopsis Black Lives, Native Lands, White Worlds by : Jared Hardesty
Download or read book Black Lives, Native Lands, White Worlds written by Jared Hardesty and published by Bright Leaf. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after the first Europeans arrived in seventeenth-century New England, they began to import Africans and capture the area's indigenous peoples as slaves. By the eve of the American Revolution, enslaved people comprised only about 4 percent of the population, but slavery had become instrumental to the region's economy and had shaped its cultural traditions. This story of slavery in New England has been little told. In this concise yet comprehensive history, Jared Ross Hardesty focuses on the individual stories of enslaved people, bringing their experiences to life. He also explores larger issues such as the importance of slavery to the colonization of the region and to agriculture and industry, New England's deep connections to Caribbean plantation societies, and the significance of emancipation movements in the era of the American Revolution. Thoroughly researched and engagingly written, Black Lives, Native Lands, White Worlds is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of New England.

Book Synopsis Thomas Jefferson's Image of New England by : Arthur Scherr
Download or read book Thomas Jefferson's Image of New England written by Arthur Scherr and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writers often depict Thomas Jefferson as a narrow-minded defender of states' rights and Virginia's interests, despite his authorship of the Declaration of Independence and vigorous defense of the young republic's sovereignty. Some historians claim he was particularly hostile to the New England states, whose Federalist electorate he regarded as enemies of his Democratic-Republican Party. This study of Jefferson's lifelong relationship with New England reveals him to be a consistent nationalist and friend of the region, from his first visit to Boston in 1784 to his recruiting of Massachusetts scholars to teach at the University of Virginia. His nationalist point of view is most evident where some historians claim to see it least: in his opinions of the people and politics of New England. He admired New Englanders' Revolutionary patriotism, especially that of his friend John Adams, and considered their direct democracy and town-meeting traditions a model for the rest of the Union.
