Download or read book New Deal and States written by James T. Patterson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little has been written about the New Deal's effect at the state level. How did the states act before the New Deal? Did the Roosevelt administration promote progressive policies on the state level? Did it destroy state initiative? Was it discriminatory? In what kinds of states did it seem to have the greatest impact, and why? What barriers were placed in the way of New Deal planning? Professor Patterson traces trends in state affairs and in American federalism between 1920 and 1940, focusing on the states in relation to the federal government. Though he pays attention to individual state variations, he searches for generalizations which explain the pattern instead of presenting a routine state-by-state survey. Originally published in 1969. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Download or read book California and the West, 1881, and Later ... written by Lloyd Vernon Briggs and published by . This book was released on 1931 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lloyd Briggs (1863-1941) of Boston interrupted his studies at Harvard Medical School to travel to Hawaii for his health. He first visited California on his return from Honolulu in 1881, and his mother and sister joined him in San Francisco. Briggs earned his long-delayed medical degree in 1899 and soon became one of Boston's most distinguished psychiatrists. California and the West (1931) includes accounts of Briggs's several trips to the state. His first visit in 1881 took him to the Napa Valley, Calistoga, the mineral springs, geysers, and Vallejo; with highlights of San Francisco, including Garfield's funeral procession, Chinatown and Chinese exclusion, and local theatre. January 1882 sees the Briggses to Los Angeles for the winter and early spring. Later chapters cover Briggs's visits to the Chicago World's Fair (1893) and an 1895 trip to California via the Canadian Pacific Railroad, including a brief stop in San Francisco. This book continues with a description of a 1904 trip to the St. Louis World's Fair followed by a rail trip west to Yosemite and Yellowstone. Next comes an account of a brief 1920 visit to Santa Barbara and a longer trip west in 1921 that took Briggs to Lake Tahoe, Mono Lake, Yosemite and Yellowstone, San Francisco, Monterey, and Santa Barbara; and another brief trip to Santa Barbara in 1923.

Book excerpt: Filled with almost 200 million people speaking nearly sixty languages, brought into nationhood under the auspices of a single religion, but wracked with deep separatist fissures and the destabilizing forces of ongoing conflicts in Iran, Afghanistan and Kashmir, Pakistan is one of the most dynamic places in the world today. From the writers who are living outside the country - Kamila Shamsie and Nadeem Aslam - to those going back - Mohsin Hamid and Mohammed Hanif - to those who are living there and writing in Urdu, Punjabi, Sindhi, Baluchi and English, there is a startling opportunity to draw together an exciting collection of voices at the forefront of a literary renaissance. Other contributors include Fatima Bhutto and Basharat Peer. Granta 112: Pakistan will seize this moment, bringing to life the landscape and culture of the country in fiction, reportage, memoir, travelogue and poetry. Like the magazine's issues on India and Australia, its release will be a watershed moment critically and a chance to celebrate the corona of talent which has burst onto the English language publishing world in recent years.

Download or read book The Cornish Overseas written by Philip Payton and published by University of Exeter Press. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 773 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fully revised and up-dated edition of The Cornish Overseas, Philip Payton draws upon almost two decades of additional research undertaken by historians the world over since the first paperback version of this book was published in 2005. Now published by University of Exeter Press, this edition of Philip Payton’s classic history of Cornwall’s ‘great emigration’ takes account of numerous new sources to present a comprehensive, definitive picture of the Cornish diaspora. The Cornish Overseas begins by identifying some of the classic themes of Cornish emigration history, including Cornwall’s ‘emigration culture’ and ‘emigration trade’, and goes on to sketch early Cornish settlement in North America and Australia. The book then examines in detail the upsurge in Cornish emigration after 1815, showing how Cornwall became swiftly one of the great emigration regions of Europe. Discoveries of silver, copper and gold drew Cornish miners to Latin America, while Cornish agriculturalists were attracted to the United States and Canada. The discoveries of copper in South Australia and in Michigan during the 1840s offered new destinations for the emigrant Cornish, as did the Californian gold rush in 1849 and the Victorian gold rush in Australia in 1851. The crash of copper-mining in Cornwall in 1866 sped further waves of emigrants to countries as disparate as New Zealand and South Africa. In each of these places the Cornish remained distinctive as ‘Cousin Jacks’ and ‘Cousin Jennys’, establishing their own communities and making important contributions to the social, political and economic development of the new worlds. By 1914, however, Cornwall was no longer the international centre of mining expertise, the mantle having passed to America, Australia and South Africa, and Cornish emigration had dwindled as a result. Nonetheless, the Cornish at home and abroad remained aware of their global transnational identity, an identity that has been revitalised in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
