Book Synopsis The Know Nothings in Louisiana by : Marius M. Carriere Jr.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1850s, a startling new political party appeared on the American scene. Both its members and its critics called the new party by various names, but to most it was known as the Know Nothing Party. It reignited political fires over nativism and anti-immigration sentiments. At a time of political uncertainty, with the Whig party on the verge of collapse, the Know Nothings seemed destined to replace them and perhaps become a political fixture. Historian Marius M. Carriere Jr. tracks the rise and fall of the Know Nothing movement in Louisiana, outlining not only the history of the party as it is usually known, but also explaining how the party's unique permeation in Louisiana contrasted with the Know Nothings' expansion nationally and elsewhere in the South. For example, many Roman Catholics in the state joined the Know Nothings, even though the party was nationally known as anti-Catholic. While historians have largely concentrated on the Know Nothings' success in the North, Carriere furnishes a new context for the evolution of a national political movement at odds with its Louisiana constituents. Through statistics on various elections and demographics of Louisiana politicians, Carriere forms a detailed account of Louisiana's Know Nothing Party. The national and rapidly changing Louisiana political landscape yielded surprising, credible leverage for the Know Nothing movement. Slavery, Carriere argues, also played a crucial difference between southern and northern Know Nothing ideals. Carriere delineates the eventual downfall of the Know Nothing Party, while offering new perspectives on a nativist movement, which has appeared once again in a changing, divided country.

Book Synopsis The Canary Islanders of Louisiana by : Gilbert C. Din
Download or read book The Canary Islanders of Louisiana written by Gilbert C. Din and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1999-08-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canary Islanders, or Isleños, of Louisiana, like some of the state’s other ethnic groups, have received little scholarly attention. Although they are a people who have remained largely unknown both inside and outside of Louisiana, the Isleños constitute a sizable portion of the state’s present Spanish-surname population. Utilizing a wide range of source materials, from Spanish colonial documents to oral interviews, Gilbert C. Din’s The Canary Islanders of Louisiana provides the first book-length study of the Isleños and a definitive history of their presence in the state. The few thousand Canary Islanders brought to Louisiana by Spanish governors in the eighteenth century came from a group of islands that, although ostensibly Spanish, had evolved its own distinctive culture and folkways. Settled in frontier areas considered strategic for the defense of the Louisiana colony, the Isleños suffered deprivation, neglect, and eventually abandonment. Living for the most part in remote back-country and delta communities, the Isleños remained isolated from their French and American neighbors. In the twentieth century, pressures to assimilate with the mainstream of Louisiana society have threatened their culture with extinction, though a few Canarians still retain much of their Isleño heritage. Gilbert C. Din’s study of the Isleños covers the entire range of their association with Louisiana. He begins with a brief survey of Canarian history and folkways and concludes with a discussion of the likely ethnic future of the increasingly assimilated Isleño descendants. Din provides a detailed history of the Isleño migration and colonial settlement; post-colonial community development; economic, social, educational, and political patterns; and the course of Isleño assimilation with the general Louisiana population. Offering his own skillfully argued answers to long-standing debates about early Isleño settlements, Din also corrects a number of factual errors on the part of previous historians who did not have access to the same range of archival sources. The Canary Islanders of Louisiana is a strong piece of historical scholarship. It makes an original and much-needed contribution to the history of a people, of Louisiana, and of the American South.
Book Synopsis Banking on Slavery by : Sharon Ann Murphy
Download or read book Banking on Slavery written by Sharon Ann Murphy and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sharon Murphy's book is a powerful and unprecedented dive into the entangled history of banking and slavery in nineteenth-century America. Slaveholders developed credit and creditworthiness by using enslaved people as collateral, and this allowed them to undertake an endless array of projects. But Murphy further shows that this credit system grew and changed as banks sought new ways to realize their own profits and power. She demonstrates not merely how slavery was financed by banks but how banks were financed by slavery. By extension, everything banks enabled, not least the physical expansion of the United States itself, was also then literally indebted to that noxious institution"--

Download or read book The 1868 St. Bernard Parish Massacre written by C. Dier and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011-02-11 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The slaughter of newly liberated African Americans just days before a Reconstruction Era election is recounted in this true crime history. Louisiana, 1868. With the Civil War over, a victorious Ulysses S. Grant was riding a wave of popularity straight to the White House. But former Confederates across the South feared what Reconstruction might look like under President Grant. Days before the tumultuous election, Louisiana’s St. Bernard Parish descended into chaos. As African American men gained the right to vote, white Democrats of the parish feared losing their majority. Armed groups mobilized to suppress these recently emancipated voters. Freed people were dragged from their homes and murdered in cold blood. Many fled to the cane fields to hide from their attackers. The reported number of those killed varies from 35 to 135. Though efforts were made to cover up the tragedy, its implications reverberated throughout the South and lingered for generations. In this authoritative chronicle, historian Chris Dier reveals the horrifying true story behind the St. Bernard Parish Massacre.
