Book Description
Excerpt from The John Bull Magazine, and Literary Recorder, 1824, Vol. 1 For this, you may be assured, we have reasons good. One of the principal of which is, that we do notwell know, in our own mind, whatis to be the exact line we mean to adopt. We shall just float down the stream as merrily and as carelessly as' we can, writing straight a-head whatever enters our cerebrum, or cerebellum, or whatever other part and portion of us is endowed with the thinking faculty. Vo gue la alere taut qu'elle paw'm voguer.' If we e Wise one month, we shall be foolish the next three - if stupid, as we rather imagine we are this month, better days will dawn upon the intellectual faculties of our headers in the next. Against one thing shall we wage war war, fierce, turbulent, no-quarter giving magainst nunecc. That elderly gen tleman, shall have no favour in our eyes no matter in what harlequin jacket he may think proper to array himself. Whether he appear rigged out as patriot or critic-saint or sinner - wit or ass, it is all one; we shall most unrelentingly expose him whenever he happens to fall m our way. S.

The Smithsonian's History of America in 101 Objects
Author: Richard KurinPublisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0143128159
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 786
Book Description
The Smithsonian Institution is America's largest, most important, and most beloved repository for the objects that define our common heritage. Now Under Secretary for Art, History, and Culture Richard Kurin, aided by a team of top Smithsonian curators and scholars, has assembled a literary exhibition of 101 objects from across the Smithsonian's museums that together offer a marvelous new perspective on the history of the United States. Ranging from the earliest years of the pre-Columbian continent to the digital age, and from the American Revolution to Vietnam, each entry pairs the fascinating history surrounding each object with the story of its creation or discovery and the place it has come to occupy in our national memory. Kurin sheds remarkable new light on objects we think we know well, from Lincoln's hat to Dorothy's ruby slippers and Julia Child's kitchen, including the often astonishing tales of how each made its way into the collections of the Smithsonian. Other objects will be eye-opening new discoveries for many, but no less evocative of the most poignant and important moments of the American experience. Some objects, such as Harriet Tubman's hymnal, Sitting Bull's ledger, Cesar Chavez's union jacket, and the Enola Gay bomber, tell difficult stories from the nation's history, and inspire controversies when exhibited at the Smithsonian. Others, from George Washington's sword to the space shuttle Discovery, celebrate the richness and vitality of the American spirit. In Kurin's hands, each object comes to vivid life, providing a tactile connection to American history. Beautifully designed and illustrated with color photographs throughout, The Smithsonian's History of America in 101 Objects is a rich and fascinating journey through America's collective memory, and a beautiful object in its own right.
