Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Anne Royall In overflowing measure ridicule, injustice, and vilifying persecution were poured upon Anne Royall while she yet walked on earth - the most widely known woman of her day and country. Dead, she has been long forgotten. Nine readers out of ten, seeing her name upon this title-page, will ask, "Who was Anne Royall?" Even in the city of Washington, the scene of her greatest and longest activity, Mrs. Royall is thought of, by the few who think of her at all, as a shrill-tongued old infidel, beggar, and black-mailer who, convicted by jury of being a common scold, narrowly escaped an official ducking in the Potomac. This unpleasing picture of Anne Royall, along with a mythical story that she was for years a captive among Indians, is preserved in several more or less gossipy contributions to Washingtoniana, and from them has been copied, almost word for word, by the biographical dictionaries and encyclopaedias. An allusion in an important historical work to "that common scold, Anne Royall," aroused my curiosity. I sought Mrs. Royall's ten volumes of Travels in the United States and the files of her newspapers published weekly for nearly a quarter of a century in Washington, D. C.

Book Synopsis The Trials of a Scold by : Jeff Biggers
Download or read book The Trials of a Scold written by Jeff Biggers and published by Thomas Dunne Books. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trials of a Scold, by American Book Award-winning author Jeff Biggers, is a well-researched and passionate biography of Anne Royall, one of America's first female muckrakers, who was convicted as a "common scold" in 1829 in one of the most bizarre trials in the nation's history. Anne Royall was an American original, a stranger to fear, and one of the nation's most daring, impassioned, and indomitable social critics. A servant in the house of the man she would later marry, Royall read constantly and pursued an education that few women at that time had access to. When fifteen years later she was left widowed and destitute after her husband's family declared their marriage invalid, she turned to her writing, and to her political interests. Travelling from Alabama to Washington DC to Pennsylvania, Royall was a fiercely dedicated journalist. Her tenacity earned her the first presidential interview ever granted to a woman, but she acquired enemies for her scathing denouncement of the increasingly blurry lines between church and state. Royall's pioneering role as a chronicler, publisher, muckraker, and social commentator brought to light the timeless issues that still define the great American experience: religion and politics.

Book Synopsis A Notorious Woman by : Elizabeth J. Clapp
Download or read book A Notorious Woman written by Elizabeth J. Clapp and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During her long career as a public figure in Jacksonian America, Anne Royall was called everything from an "enemy of religion" to a "Jackson man" to a "common scold." In her search for the source of such strong reactions, Elizabeth Clapp has uncovered the story of a widely read woman of letters who asserted her right to a political voice without regard to her gender. Widowed and in need of a livelihood following a disastrous lawsuit over her husband’s will, Royall decided to earn her living through writing--first as a travel writer, journeying through America to research and sell her books, and later as a journalist and editor. Her language and forcefully expressed opinions provoked people at least as much as did her inflammatory behavior and aggressive marketing tactics. An ardent defender of American liberties, she attacked the agents of evangelical revivals, the Bank of the United States, and corruption in government. Her positions were frequently extreme, directly challenging the would-be shapers of the early republic’s religious and political culture. She made many enemies, but because she also attracted many supporters, she was not easily silenced. The definitive account of a passionate voice when America was inventing itself, A Notorious Woman re-creates a fascinating stage on which women’s roles, evangelical hegemony, and political involvement were all contested.
