Book excerpt: Genealogists and other historical researchers have valued the first two editions of this work, often referred to as the genealogist's bible."" The new edition continues that tradition. Intended as a handbook and a guide to selecting, locating, and using appropriate primary and secondary resources, The Source also functions as an instructional tool for novice genealogists and a refresher course for experienced researchers. More than 30 experts in this field--genealogists, historians, librarians, and archivists--prepared the 20 signed chapters, which are well written, easy to read, and include many helpful hints for getting the most out of whatever information is acquired. Each chapter ends with an extensive bibliography and is further enriched by tables, black-and-white illustrations, and examples of documents. Eight appendixes include the expected contact information for groups and institutions that persons studying genealogy and history need to find. ""

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Olson (history, U. of Maryland) argues that, until the eve of the revolution, the British crown could rule its American colonies peacefully with so few administrators because an extensive network of voluntary interest groups, tying the colonies and London, allowed colonists a measure of influence over the central government.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southern slaveholders proudly pronounced themselves orthodox Christians, who accepted responsibility for the welfare of the people who worked for them. They proclaimed that their slaves enjoyed a better and more secure life than any laboring class in the world. Now, did it not follow that the lives of laborers of all races across the world would be immeasurably improved by their enslavement? In the Old South but in no other slave society a doctrine emerged among leading clergymen, politicians, and intellectuals - 'Slavery in the Abstract', which declared enslavement the best possible condition for all labor regardless of race. They joined the Socialists, whom they studied, in believing that the free-labor system, wracked by worsening class warfare, was collapsing. A vital question: to what extent did the people of the several social classes of the South accept so extreme a doctrine? That question lies at the heart of this book.

Download or read book Becoming America written by Jon Butler and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2001-12-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multinational, profit-driven, materialistic, politically self-conscious, power-hungry, religiously plural: America three hundred years ago -- and today. Here are Britain's mainland American colonies after 1680, in the process of becoming the first modern society -- a society the earliest colonists never imagined, a "new order of the ages" that anticipated the American Revolution. Jon Butler's panoramic view of the colonies in this epoch transforms our customary picture of prerevolutionary America; it reveals a strikingly "modern" character that belies the eighteenth-century quaintness fixed in history. Stressing the middle and late decades (the hitherto "dark ages") of the American colonial experience, and emphasizing the importance of the middle and southern colonies as well as New England, Becoming America shows us transformations before 1776 among an unusually diverse assortment of peoples. Here is a polyglot population of English, Indians, Africans, Scots, Germans, Swiss, Swedes, and French; a society of small colonial cities with enormous urban complexities; an economy of prosperous farmers thrust into international market economies; peoples of immense wealth, a burgeoning middle class, and incredible poverty. Butler depicts settlers pursuing sophisticated provincial politics that ultimately sparked revolution and a new nation; developing new patterns in production, consumption, crafts, and trades that remade commerce at home and abroad; and fashioning a society remarkably pluralistic in religion, whose tolerance nonetheless did not extend to Africans or Indians. Here was a society that turned protest into revolution and remade itself many times during the next centuries -- asociety that, for ninety years before 1776, was becoming America.

Book excerpt: Alexander Chesney, along with his parents and siblings, came from County Antrim, Ireland in 1772 with the Rev. William Martin and his five ship loads of Protestants. The Chesney family settled alongside kinsmen on the Pacolet River in the Up-Country of South Carolina. Chesney established a plantation and also became involved in freighting mountain produce and lumber to the coastal region of Carolina. He remained loyal to the British government in the American Revolution and was chosen by Maj. Patrick Ferguson, one of the two independent British commanders in the South, to be his adjutant in the American Volunteers. He was in the the defeat of Ferguson and his band of Loyalists in the battle of Kings Mountain. Next, at the battle of Cowpen, when Chesney faced his wife's Patriot father and brothers, the other British independent commander, Col. Banastre Tarleton, with regular British soldiers and militiamen met defeat at the hands of Daniel Morgan. Realizing that the British forces were destined to be driven from America, Chesney, while in poor health following his wife's death, returned to Ireland. There, he became an officer in the customs department and a militia officer. He recorded his experiences in two separate journals. In this book the two journals are united and edited. The result is a unique rendition of an eye witness account of the American Revolution in the South and the post war events in Ireland for many who returned to the land of their birth.
