Book Synopsis Passing the Time by : Zachary Chastain
Download or read book Passing the Time written by Zachary Chastain and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a six-day workweek, long hours on the job, and the hard labor required to keep house, leisure time was precious in the 1800s. Without recorded music, radio, movies, TV, video games, or the Internet, Americans had to make their own fun, and most of it was simple and very low tech—singing around the family piano, visiting with neighbors, or picnicking in the woods. In the bigger towns and cities, theaters offered live, professional entertainment ranging from classic plays to raucous minstrel shows. In the smaller towns and rural areas, people waited anxiously for those few times a year when a traveling show or circus might come through the area. As the 1800s progressed, leisure time and economic resources increased for many Americans and a more sophisticated public demanded new and more exciting amusements. Read all about America at play in the 1800s!
Book Synopsis Guardians of the Home by : Matthew Strange
Download or read book Guardians of the Home written by Matthew Strange and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While often behind the scenes and hidden from history, women in 1800s America worked side by side with men in building our nation. On the frontier, strong, capable women worked as hard—or harder—than their men-folk, taming the land and raising the crops while shouldering the responsibilities of keeping house and caring for the children. The life of the farm wife in the settled parts of the country was one of sunup to sundown labor in an era with few modern conveniences. And in urban areas, working-class women were a major part of the workforce in an industrializing economy, while middle- and upper-class women influenced America's social movements, supported charities, and helped beautify the gritty cities. In the course of the 1800s, new labor-saving technologies in the home, improved health conditions, greater economic and educational opportunities, and a growing sense of their rights helped to empower women and started the movement toward full equality with men that continues to this day.

Book Synopsis Home Sweet Home by : Zachary Chastain
Download or read book Home Sweet Home written by Zachary Chastain and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In rough frontier cabins, tidy farmhouses, and elegant townhouses, Americans in the 1800s were dedicated to living as well and as comfortably as their circumstances allowed. The American home was a sacred institution, the seat of family life where the patriarch ruled with Mother at his side as guardian of the home, and the children were raised with strict discipline and strong values. Changes in taste and fashion, improvements in technology (indoor plumbing and a host of new labor-saving devices), and social change transformed home and family life in the 1800s, as opportunities for leisure activities and commercially produced consumer goods came within reach of the average American. But the strong American tradition of the sanctity of the home, consumerism, and the importance of a happy family life has its roots in the homes of nineteenth-century Americans.

Book Synopsis Exchanges between Literature and Science from the 1800s to the 2000s by : Márcia Diana Fernandes Lemos
Download or read book Exchanges between Literature and Science from the 1800s to the 2000s written by Márcia Diana Fernandes Lemos and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays responds to the intense interest that the relations between the discourses of literature (and other cultural practices) and those of science have obtained throughout various fields of study. Spanning a period between the mid-nineteenth century and the twenty-first century, the work collected here is firmly focused on the cultural significance of scientific discoveries and practices, and especially on the manifold representations of science and scientists in literature and the arts. Its four sections develop from an initial moment of dwindling indefiniteness of borders between literature and the sciences to the historical perception of an increasing divide between “the two cultures,” to use C.P. Snow’s influential expression, as well as calls for a form of convergence or “consilience” in Edward Wilson’s words. The final section turns to the medical sciences, a porous scientific discipline in relation to the humanities, which suggests that consilience can already be found partially in specific areas. As such, this collection contributes towards critically extending that integration through the discussion of key literary representations of science, its promises, and its problems.
Book Synopsis Saloons, Shootouts, and Spurs by : Kenneth McIntosh
Download or read book Saloons, Shootouts, and Spurs written by Kenneth McIntosh and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life on the American frontier of the 1800s is the stuff of American myth and legend. It was here in the wide-open spaces of the West that the rugged individualism of the American character was refined: in the strong but silent cowboy, the saloon girl with a heart of gold, and the sod-busting pioneer. Faced with the incredible challenges of taming a wilderness, wresting the territory from the Native peoples, and dealing with the hardships of pioneer life, Americans were offered one of the richest opportunities in the history of human kind—the agricultural and mineral resources of a new land. The settling of this land is the story of America, a story of violence, wasted resources, and genocide, as well as heroism, freedom, and incredible opportunity. The Wild West of the 1800s remains for Americans a land of hopes and dreams.
Book Synopsis Jacob a Boy of the 1800S by : Carol Bender
Download or read book Jacob a Boy of the 1800S written by Carol Bender and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2023-06-11 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob a Boy of the 1800s is another story about Jacob Pindell Prickett that I am retelling. I retold Jacob’s story of his trip to the California Gold Rush when he joined a wagon train going west in my book In Quest of Gold. Jacob was my great-grandfather, and his wagon-train experience had been handed down in the family, from his daughter Elsie, my grandmother; to her daughter Grace, my mother; to my eldest sibling, my brother Kenneth; and to me. After the story was published, I received this story, “Childhood Days,” about Jacob’s boyhood days, from a distant cousin who had acquired the story the same way in her branch of the family tree. When she discovered In Quest of Gold, she contacted me and sent me this story of Jacob’s boyhood. I found it very interesting and thought others would like it as well, especially those living in Northern Indiana, where the story takes place so very long ago. Jacob was born in 1836, and Indiana had only been a state for twenty years, having achieved statehood in 1816. It is amazing to read how hard they had to work to survive, and yet they found enjoyment in everyday living. This story truly makes you understand where the saying “Necessity is the mother of invention” came from.

Book Synopsis Wondrous Times on the Frontier by : Dee Brown
Download or read book Wondrous Times on the Frontier written by Dee Brown and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively history of the nineteenth-century American West from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author: “Glorious . . . Do not miss a page.” —Rocky Mountain News Frontier life, Dee Brown writes, “was hard, unpleasant most of the time,” and “ lacking in almost all amenities or creature comforts.” And yet, tall tales were the genre of the day, and humor, both light and dark, was abundant. In this historical account, Brown examines the aspects of the frontier spirit that would come to assume so central a position in American mythology. Split into sections—“Gambling, Violence, and Merriment,” “Lawyers, Newsmen, and Other Professionals,” and “Misunderstood Minorities—it is mindful in its correction of certain stereotypes of Western life, and is a mesmerizing account of an untamed nation and its wild, resilient settlers. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Dee Brown including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.
