This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "Must Read" when first released in 1856, and, again, with the release of the Second Edition in 1860. One reviewer comments, "A more delightful ... volume than this we have not read for many moons. No one who peruses it with a knowledge of localities can fail to render his thanks to the author for the gratification afforded by such lively annals, while the distant reader will find much to interest him in the account incidentally given of such stirring events as the burning of the Theatre, and the pleasant social portraitures of half-a-century ago." The author manages to pen a substantial history, as well as his recollections, into a 350 page volume that addresses numerous subjects, issues and individuals. In 39 chapters he covers: the history of the Richmond area, including land grants, the establishment of the town, and the seat of government; the British Merchants and Commercial "Quacks," including evasion of usury, sham bills, monopoly, and more; Buildings, houses, and commercial establishments; Business establishments; Residences and their Occupants; Religious life and churches; Clothing fashions; Interesting characters; Places of Amusement; Physicians; Newspapers and Printers; Publicans and Patriots; Races and Balls; Societies; Evening Pastimes; Flush Times in Richmond; Roads, bridges, and the James River Canal; Financial, Insurance and Manufacturing sectors and institutions; Monuments and Museums; and the Colored Aristocracy. Paperback, (1860), repr. 2011, 359 pp.

Download or read book Urban Growth in the Age of Sectionalism written by David Goldfield and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1999-03-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The urban growth of Virginia during the decade and a half before the Civil War has been an unjustly neglected subject in American history. With this authoritative book David Goldfield fills a long-standing gap in historical scholarship by providing much new information and a fresh perspective on urban development in the Old Dominion during the turbulent antebellum years. According to Goldfield’s interpretation, the urbanization of Virginia was prompted, in part, by the response of the state’s leaders to the sectionalism that increasingly influenced prewar southern ideas. Caught up in the intense competition for western trade and commerce, Virginia’s urbanizers dreamed of railroads and canals flung across the continent and bringing the wealth of the West into the Old Dominion. To realize these heroic visions, the state’s entrepreneurs planned railroad networks, invested in manufacturing, and sought to establish trade with Europe. Lynchburg and Petersburg became centers for tobacco manufacturing, the ports of Alexandria and Norfolk saw a resurgence of shipping activity, and Richmond developed flour-milling and iron-manufacturing industries. Local governments, labor systems, and the cities themselves expanded to accommodate urban growth, embracing the farmer as a partner in the urban economy. Finally, a distinct urban consciousness developed to provide an intellectual framework for the urbanization process. Despite the unprecedented growth of Virginia’s cities, however, their dreams of economic independence remained unfulfilled. By 1861 the state was more economically dependent on its northern rivals than it had ever been before. As the state reluctantly seceded from the Union, the subject of urban economic growth elicited sharp debate at the secession convention. Urban Virginia would have to wait until the “New South” years to renew the dreams of economic independence.
