The Wild Woman of Cincinnati: Gender and Politics on the Eve of the Civil War
ISBN: 9780807178720 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Popular entertainment in antebellum Cincinnati ran the gamut from high culture to shows barely above the level of the tawdry. Among the options for those seeking entertainment in the summer of 1856 was the display of a "Wild Woman," purportedly a young woman captured while living a feral life beyond the frontier. The popular exhibit, which featured a silent, underdressed woman chained to a bed, was almost assuredly a hoax. Local activist women, however, used their influence to prompt a judge to investigate the display. The court employed eleven doctors, who forcibly subdued and examined the...

Mutiny at Fort Jackson: The Untold Story of the Fall of New Orleans
ISBN: 9781469629117 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. New Orleans was the largest city--and one of the richest--in the Confederacy, protected in part by Fort Jackson, which was just sixty-five miles down the Mississippi River. On April 27, 1862, Confederate soldiers at Fort Jackson rose up in mutiny against their commanding officers. New Orleans fell to Union forces soon thereafter. Although the Fort Jackson mutiny marked a critical turning point in the Union's campaign to regain control of this vital Confederate financial and industrial center, it has received surprisingly little attention from historians. Michael Pierson examines newly...

Lt. Spalding in Civil War Louisiana: A Union Officer's Humor, Privilege, and Ambition
ISBN: 9780807164396 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In July 1862, Union Lieutenant Stephen Spalding wrote a long letter from his post in Algiers, Louisiana, to his former college roommate. Equally fascinating and unsettling for modern readers, the comic cynicism of the young soldier s correspondence offers an unusually candid and intimate account of military life and social change on the southern front. A fascinating primary source, Spalding s letter is reproduced here for the first time, along with contextual analysis and biographical detail, by Michael D. Pierson. "Lt. Spalding in Civil War Louisiana" lifts the curtain on the... In July 1862, Union Lieutenant Stephen Spalding wrote a long letter from his post in Algiers, Louisiana, to his former college roommate.

Free Hearts and Free Homes: Gender and American Antislavery Politics
ISBN: 9780807854556 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. By exploring the intersection of gender and politics in the antebellum North, Michael Pierson examines how antislavery political parties capitalized on the emerging family practices and ideologies that accompanied the market revolution.
From the birth of the Liberty party in 1840 through the election of Republican Abraham Lincoln in 1860, antislavery parties celebrated the social practices of modernizing northern families. In an era of social transformations, they attacked their Democratic foes as defenders of an older, less egalitarian patriarchal world. In ways rarely before seen...

The XXXIII Conference of the American Italian Historical Asso-ciation was held in Lowell Massachusetts, where Greek immi-grants settled at the turn of the century and established a vibrant community.

Selvaggio, with his directorship of The Lowell Opera Company, provided a...
