Old Historians Never Die
EVERAL years before I retired in i990, the history club at Oakland S University conducted a contest to select an inscription for T-shirts to be sold in a money-raising venture. The winner-Old Historians Never Die, They Just Become Primary Sources-brought a chuckle to the several near-septuagenarians in the department and started me thinking about what had happened to the study of colonial history during my career. After World War II took me out o…

The Adams Women
From his vast storehouse of knowledge about the Adams family, Nagel pulls out the feminine threads of that tapestry to write all about the Adams women, from Abigail to daughter Nabby, from Louisa Catherine Adams, wife of John Quincy, to Clover Adams, wife of Henry, with others making more than cameo appearances. They all lived exceptional, if not extraordinary, lives, in different ways

The Urban Crucible
For purposes of review it is fruitful to examine Gary B. Nash's The Urban Crucible as if it were two books. One is a complex, largely descriptive study of the social, economic, and political history of the key port cities of colonial America--Boston, New York, and Philadelphia--from 1690 to 1776. The other, drawing its energy from the rich detail of the first, is an evolutionary study of the socio-economic origins of the American Revolution. The …

Religion and the American Revolution
IN late summer I765, as Boston began to resist the Stamp Act, the prominent merchant Richard Clarke sat uneasily under the whiggish preaching of Jonathan Mayhew at the West Church. On August 25 Mayhew delivered a sermon which even he admitted had been composed in a high strain of liberty. Clarke, among others, believed that this sermon helped to incite the riot that destroyed Lieutenant Governor Thomas Hutchinson's mansion on the following day. R…
