Clothed in Robes of Sovereignty
Author: Benjamin H. IrvinPublisher: Oxford University Press

Category : History

Pages : 393
Book Description
Clothed in Robes of Sovereignty examines the material artifacts, festivities, and rituals by which Congress endeavored not only to assert its political legitimacy and to bolster the war effort, but ultimately to glorify the United States and to win the allegiance of the American people. But fact, as Benjamin H. Irvin demonstrates, the "people out of doors"--including the working poor, women, loyalists, Native Americans and others not represented in Congress--vigorously contested the trappings of nationhood into which Congress had enfolded them.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Continental Congress at Princeton My chief general indebtedness however is to Mr. Stanislaus Murray Hamilton, formerly of the Bureau Of Rolls and Library in the State Department at Washing ton. To his intimate knowledge of the manuscripts of the Continental Congress so long under his curatorship, and now in the Library of Congress, to his ready and sympathetic interest and to his unfailingly generous and scholarly assistance I am under lasting obligations. The painting of Prospect, Colonel George Morgan's home at Princeton, now for the first time published, is owned by Mrs. Hughes Oliphant, of Washington, D. C. It is a pleasure to express my appreciation of her permis sion to use this interesting picture. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
