Early Native Literacies in New England
A Documentary and Critical Anthology
Edited by Kristina Bross and Hilary E. Wyss
An introduction to the rich heritage of early Native literary culture in New England
Designed as a corrective to colonial literary histories that have excluded Native voices, this anthology brings together a variety of primary texts produced by the Algonquian peoples of New England during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and very early nineteenth centuries. Included among these written materials and objects are letters, signatures, journals, baskets, pictographs, confessions, wills, and petitions, each of which represents a form of authorship. Together they demonstrate the continuing use of traditional forms of memory and communication and the lively engagement of Native peoples with alphabetic literacy during the colonial period.
Each primary text is accompanied by an essay that places it in context and explores its significance. Written by leading scholars in the field, these readings draw on recent trends in literary analysis, history, and anthropology to provide an excellent overview of the field of early Native studies. They are also intended to provoke discussion and open avenues for further exploration by students and other interested readers. Above all, the texts and commentaries gathered in this volume provide an opportunity to see Native American literature as a continuity of expression that reflects choices made long before contact and colonization, rather than as a nineteenth—or even twentieth-century invention.

A volume in the series Native Americans of the Northeast: Culture, History, and the Contemporary
Experience Mayhew's Indian Converts
A Cultural Edition
Edited by Laura Arnold Leibman
A new scholarly edition of an important primary text in Native American studies
First published in 1727 under the title Indian Converts, or Some account of the lives and dying speeches of a considerable number of the Christianized Indians of Martha's Vineyard, in New-England, Experience Mayhew's history of the Wampanoag Indians on Martha's Vineyard provides a rare look at the lives and culture of four generations of Native Americans in colonial America. Dividing his treatment into four sections—Indian Ministers, Good Men, Religious Women, and Pious Children—Mayhew details the books that different age groups were reading, provides insights into early New England pedagogy and childrearing practices, and describes each individual in terms of genealogy, religious practice, way of life, and place of residence. In addition to drawing on his own firsthand knowledge of the community and transcriptions of oral testimony he and others collected, Mayhew inserts translations of Wampanoag texts that have since been lost.
Although the book has been out of print since the early nineteenth century, scholars have long recognized its importance for understanding the history of New England's Native communities. In an extensive introduction to this new scholarly edition, Laura Arnold Leibman places Indian Converts in a broader cultural context and explores its significance. She shows how Mayhew's biographies illuminate the theological upheavals that rocked early eighteenth-century New England on the eve of the Great Awakening, shifts that altered not only the character of Puritanism but also the landscape of Wampanoag religious and cultural life.
An accompanying online archive that includes over 600 images and documents further contextualizes Mayhew's work and provide suggestions for students' investigations of the text.
“Indian Converts is like no other source in the history of Atlantic coast Indians and English colonial America. It is a landmark work, and the time is well overdue for a scholarly edition. Laura Leibman is an able scholar to see this project to fruition. She brings to her work not only a comprehensive understanding of colonial literature, consistent with her disciplinary training, but a firm command of the relevant historiography and primary sources. . . . Editorially, she has done a superb job.”
David J. Silverman, author of Faith and Boundaries: Colonists, Christianity, and Community among the Wampanoags of Martha's Vineyard, 1600–1871

The Birth of American Tourism
New York, the Hudson Valley, and American Culture, 1790–1835
Richard H. Gassan
How tourism first emerged as a cultural activity in early nineteenth-century America
Today the idea of traveling within the United States for leisure purposes is so commonplace it is hard to imagine a time when tourism was not a staple of our cultural life. Yet as Richard H. Gassan persuasively demonstrates, at the beginning of the nineteenth century travel for leisure was strictly an aristocratic luxury beyond the means of ordinary Americans. It wasn't until the second decade of the century that the first middle-class tourists began to follow the lead of the well-to-do, making trips up the Hudson River valley north of New York City, and in a few cases beyond. At first just a trickle, by 1830 the tide of tourism had become a flood, a cultural change that signaled a profound societal shift as the United States stepped onto the road that would eventually lead to a modern consumer society.
According to Gassan, the origins of American tourism in the Hudson Valley can be traced to a confluence of historical accidents, including the proximity of the region to the most rapidly growing financial and population center in the country, with its expanding middle class, and the remarkable beauty of the valley itself. But other developments also played a role, from the proliferation of hotels to accommodate tourists, to the construction of an efficient transportation network to get them to their destinations, to the creation of a set of cultural attractions that invested their experience with meaning. In the works of Washington Irving and James Fenimore Cooper and the paintings of Thomas Cole and others of the Hudson River School, travelers in the region encountered the nation's first literary and artistic movements. Tourism thus did more than provide an escape from the routines of everyday urban life; it also helped Americans of the early republic shape a sense of national identity.

Popular Print and Popular Medicine
Almanacs and Health Advice in Early America
Thomas A. Horrocks
Explores the role of almanacs in early American culture
In this innovative study of the relationship between popular print and popular attitudes toward the body, health, and disease in antebellum America, Thomas A. Horrocks focuses our attention on a publication long neglected by scholars—the almanac. Approaching his subject as both a historian of the book and a historian of medicine, Horrocks contends that the almanac, the most popular secular publication in America from the late eighteenth century to the first quarter of the nineteenth, both shaped and was shaped by early Americans' beliefs and practices pertaining to health and medicine.
Analyzing the astrological, therapeutic, and regimen advice offered in American almanacs over two centuries, and comparing it with similar advice offered in other genres of popular print of the period, Horrocks effectively demonstrates that the almanac was a leading source of health information in America prior to the Civil War. He contends that the almanac was an integral component of a complicated, fragmented, semi-vernacular health literature of the period, and that the genre played a leading role in disseminating astrological health advice as well as shaping contemporary and future perceptions of astrology.
In terms of therapeutic and regimen advice, Horrocks asserts that the almanac performed a complementary role, confirming and reinforcing traditional beliefs and practices. By analyzing the almanac as a cultural artifact that represents a time, a place, and a certain set of assumptions and beliefs, he demonstrates that the genre can provide a lens through which scholars may examine early American attitudes and practices concerning their health in particular and American popular culture in general.
“Given the wide readership of almanacs in early America and their importance to the business of printing and publishing, the neglect of scholarship on almanacs verges on the scandalous. . . . Horrocks's intense focus, his broad range of primary sources, his grasp of the positions of other scholars, his crisp argumentation, and his clear, accessible prose combine to make this a valuable study.”

A volume in the series Studies in Print Culture and the History of the Book
The Needle’s Eye
Women and Work in the Age of Revolution
Marla R. Miller
Sheds new light on women’s household and artisanal roles in early America
Among the enduring stereotypes of early American history has been the colonial Goodwife, perpetually spinning, sewing, darning, and quilting, answering all of her family’s textile needs. But the Goodwife of popular historical imagination obscures as much as she reveals; the icon appears to explain early American women’s labor history while at the same time allowing it to go unexplained. Tensions of class and gender recede, and the largest artisanal trade open to early American women is obscured in the guise of domesticity.
In this book, Marla R. Miller illuminates the significance of women’s work in the clothing trades of the early Republic. Drawing on diaries, letters, reminiscences, ledgers, and material culture, she explores the contours of working women’s lives in rural New England, offering a nuanced view of their varied ranks and roles—skilled and unskilled, black and white, artisanal and laboring—as producers and consumers, clients and craftswomen, employers and employees. By plumbing hierarchies of power and skill, Miller explains how needlework shaped and reflected the circumstances of real women’s lives, at once drawing them together and setting them apart.
The heart of the book brings into focus the entwined experiences of six women who lived in and around Hadley, Massachusetts, a thriving agricultural village nestled in a bend in the Connecticut River about halfway between the Connecticut and Vermont borders. Miller’s examination of their distinct yet overlapping worlds reveals the myriad ways that the circumstances of everyday lives positioned women in relationship to one another, enlarging and limiting opportunities and shaping the trajectories of days, years, and lifetimes in ways both large and small. The Needle’s Eye reveals not only how these women thought about their work, but how they thought about their world.
“This is a wonderful book. It exemplifies prodigious research and unusually creative reading and linking of primary documents. . . . The Needle’s Eye is an important addition to New England history, labor history, and women’s history. . . . Throughout, the writing is polished, accessible, and filled with the kind of detail that brings a world to life.”
Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, Harvard University
“Marla Miller’s book will inspire similar studies of women’s needlework in other regions of the country and, along with Laurel Thatcher Ulrich’s The Age of Homespun, be the beginning of a much more thorough understanding of women’s early labor history.”
Lynne Z. Bassett, The Connecticut Historical Society
“This is an excellent study of an important topic. . . . It will engage scholars and students in early American history and also be accessible for general readers interested in women’s history, material culture, and social life in the period of the American Revolution. . . . In short, this is a rich and significant book.”

Captive Histories
English, French, and Native Narratives of the 1704 Deerfield Raid
Edited by Evan Haefeli and Kevin Sweeney
Documents a pivotal episode in American colonial history from multiple points of view
This volume draws together an unusually rich body of original sources that tell the story of the 1704 French and Indian attack on Deerfield, Massachusetts, from different vantage points. Texts range from one of the most famous early American captivity narratives, John Williams’s The Redeemed Captive, to the records of French soldiers and clerics, to little-known Abenaki and Mohawk stories of the raid that emerged out of their communities’ oral traditions. Evan Haefeli and Kevin Sweeney provide a general introduction, extensive annotations, and headnotes to each text.
Although the oft-reprinted Redeemed Captive stands at the core of this collection, it is juxtaposed to less familiar accounts of captivity composed by other Deerfield residents: Quentin Stockwell, Daniel Belding, Joseph Petty, Joseph Kellogg, and the teenaged Stephen Williams. Presented in their original form, before clerical editors revised and embellished their content to highlight religious themes, these stories challenge long-standing assumptions about classic Puritan captivity narratives.
The inclusion of three Abenaki and Mohawk narratives of the Deerfield raid is equally noteworthy, offering a rare opportunity not only to compare captors’ and captives’ accounts of the same experiences, but to do so with reference to different Native oral traditions. Similarly, the memoirs of French military officers and an excerpt from the Jesuit Relations illuminate the motivations behind the attack and offer fresh insights into the complexities of French-Indian alliances.
Taken together, the stories collected in this volume, framed by the editors’ introduction and the assessments of two Native scholars, Taiaiake Alfred and Marge Bruchac, allow readers to reconstruct the history of the Deerfield raid from multiple points of view and, in so doing, to explore the interplay of culture and memory that shapes our understanding of the past.
“This is one of the best collections of documents I have ever read. It is rare to have a collection of disparate accounts hold together so well to create a unified story that is also full of interesting complexities and capable of addressing so many different historical problems. A classroom of students could discuss this for a week or more and still not have time to deal with all the issues it raises.”—Nancy Shoemaker, author of A Strange Likeness: Becoming Red and White in Eighteenth-Century North America
“A superb project. . . . Coming on the heels of Captors and Captives, Haefeli and Sweeney’s invaluable study of the Deerfield raid, the narratives collected in this volume give life to many of the voices that informed that specific history.”—Ron Welburn, author of Roanoke and Wampum: Topics in Native American Heritage and Literatures
"This outstanding collection of primary sources, each with an introduction placing the material in context stands on its own as an essential purchase for all academic libraries and should be strongly considered for acquisition by public libraries."—Library Journal (starred review)

Pillars of Salt, Monuments of Grace
New England Crime Literature and the Origins of American Popular Culture, 1674–1860
Daniel A. Cohen
Illuminates early American consciousness and culture through a reading of New England crime literature
In this innovative study, Daniel A. Cohen explores a major cultural shift embodied in hundreds of early New England crime publications. Tracing the declining authority of Puritan ministers, he shows how the arbiters of an increasingly pluralistic literary marketplace gradually supplanted pious execution sermons with last-speech broadsides, gallows verses, criminal autobiographies, trial reports, newspaper stories, and romantic docudramas. Pillars of Salt, Monuments of Grace probes the forgotten origins of our modern mass media’s preoccupation with crime and punishment.
“Brilliantly connects changes in American social structure with corresponding shifts in epistemology. . . . Cohen’s careful tracing of a single literary and cultural thread over nearly two centuries opens up a fresh view of the whole fabric of early American experience.”
William and Mary Quarterly
“A first-rate piece of historical scholarship, this book will be especially useful to students of print culture, the relationship between law and literature, and the figure of the criminal, but will profit all readers who are interested in American culture.”
American Literature
“The way New Englanders packaged and understood crime from the time of Increase Mather to the Civil War superbly illustrates the general evolution of New England culture and helps illuminate via comparison our contemporary understanding of crime and criminal justice.”
Law and History Review
“Provides fresh examinations of the central developments of New England society and culture: its growing secularization, the displacement of clerical by legal authority, the region’s increasing social and ethnic diversity, the intensification of class and social conflicts, the spread of Enlightenment ideals, and, most fascinating, the symbiotic relationship among romanticism, legal authority, and popular culture in the nineteenth century.”
Journal of American History
“Daniel Cohen’s literate, engaging study combines analysis and insight to probe the changing meanings of crime and punishment in the print culture of New England before the Civil War. . . . an always absorbing book.”
New England Quarterly
“A marvelously written and engaging book, Pillars of Salt, Monuments of Grace is a significant contribution to the social and cultural history of early America, but its implications extend far beyond. A truly interdisciplinary mix of cultural, social, legal, religious, gender, and literary history, it should be read by any scholars whose interests touch those fields.”
Journal of Social History
"With admirable industry and zeal, Cohen surveys the rise of the 'True Crime' tradition in American literature—from Increase Mather's first execution sermon in 1674, to the eve of the Civil War. . . . This is a thorough and richly descriptive book— informative, clearly written, and suggestive both about the temper of the times with which it is concerned and about a literary form that has continued to evolve into the mass market of our own time."

Festivals of Freedom
Memory and Meaning in African American Emancipation Celebrations, 1808–1915
Mitch Kachun
How the public commemoration of emancipation from slavery helped shape African American political culture
“Scholars of African American, intellectual, and cultural history will welcome Kachun’s judicious study of the variety and complexity of nineteenth and early twentieth century emancipation celebrations. . . . In clear, crisp prose, Kachun explains the varieties of freedom festivals and assesses their diverse meaning to whites and blacks alike.”
History: Reviews of New Books
“Kachun recaptures the reality of blacks’ presence in public space, and their determination to assert a black-inclusive version of U.S. history. In addition, the author sensitively recounts conflicting black viewpoints on the making and maintaining of a commemorative tradition, as well as regional variations in the making and keeping of that tradition. . . . Substantially advances our knowledge of black organizations and interactions in the creation of a black commemorative tradition.”
Choice
“Drawing upon a diverse array of primary sources, . . . Kachun provides an impressive analysis of how African American leaders used freedom celebrations to create a collective memory, to uplift the race, and, more importantly, to claim their political rights.”
American Quarterly
“Kachun traces a distinctive era in the formation of African American institutions of memory and activism in his examination of the phenomenon of freedom festivals, which proliferated in the years 1808–1915. . . . Kachun deftly teases out the complexity of this history. He chronicles simultaneous flux and continuity in the freedom festival tradition and illustrates organizers’ difficult task of creating a distinct African American identity while attempting to demonstrate the inherent Americanness of African Americans to the broader society. . . . Highly recommended to readers interested in African American history, the transition from slavery to freedom, and broader questions about the construction of African American historical consciousness and the making of history.”
Journal of American History
“A major contribution to black culture,. . .filling in a historical gap about African American festivals of freedom that have too long escaped our calendar of celebrations.”

The Jay Treaty Debate, Public Opinion, and the Evolution of Early American Political Culture
Todd Estes
Examines the changing role of popular politics in the early republic
During the mid-1790s, citizens of the newly formed United States became embroiled in a divisive debate over a proposed commercial treaty with Great Britain. Long regarded as a pivotal event in the history of the early republic, the controversy pitted pro-treaty Federalists against anti-treaty Jeffersonian Republicans. Yet as Todd Estes argues in this perceptive study, the year-long debate over the ratification of the Jay Treaty represented more than a clash over foreign policy between two nascent political parties. It also marked a significant milestone in the role played by public opinion in the young nation’s political culture.
Drawing evidence from a broad range of sources—petitions and newspaper polemics, crowd gatherings, as well as rhetorical exchanges on the floor of Congress—Estes shows how both sides in the Jay Treaty debate mounted extensive and unprecedented campaigns to marshal popular support for their positions. Although many Americans initially opposed the treaty, the Federalists proved particularly skillful at courting the public and eventually prevailed over their opponents, just as they had won earlier battles over neutrality, democratic societies, and the Whiskey Rebellion. But the Republicans, Estes points out, learned from the experience, and in the long run they would become even more adept than the Federalists at shaping public opinion.
Even at the time, amid the fierce political rhetoric and colorful street demonstrations that characterized the Jay Treaty debate, participants recognized that important changes were taking place. Not only did the dispute solidify party allegiances, it also legitimized and advanced popular involvement in the political process. While some welcomed the emergence of this new, more democratic political culture, Estes concludes, others were much more ambivalent.
“The Jay Treaty marked a decisive turning-point in framing an international settlement after the American Revolution; Todd Estes demonstrates that its ratification also marked an important step in the evolution of American politics. He shows that the debate over the treaty opened national politics to public opinion, as Republicans and then Federalists worked to develop linkages between the national capitol and the people in their localities in order to shape the outcome. His book will establish the importance of the political struggle over the Jay Treaty to the emergence of partisanship in the early American republic.”

One Shaker Life
Isaac Newton Youngs, 1793–1865
Glendyne R. Wergland
A rare inside look at the life of an ordinary Shaker
A member of the United Society of Believers, better known as the Shakers, Isaac Newton Youngs spent most of his life in New Lebanon, New York, home of the society’s central Ministry. As both a private diarist and the official village scribe, he kept meticulous records throughout those years of both his own experience and that of the community. All told, more than four thousand pages of Brother Isaac’s journals have survived, documenting the history of the Shakers during the period of their greatest success and providing a revealing view of the daily life of a rank-and-file Believer.
In this deeply researched biography, Glendyne R. Wergland draws on Youngs’s writings to tell his story and to explore “the tension between desire and discipline” at the center of his life. She follows Youngs from childhood and adolescence to maturity, through years of demanding responsibility into his fatal decline. In each of these stages, he remained a talented and committed yet independent Shaker, one who chose to stay with the community but often struggled to abide by its stringent rules, including the vow of celibacy. Perhaps above all, he was a man who spent most of his waking hours working diligently at a succession of tasks, making clocks, sewing clothes, fixing roofs, writing poetry, chronicling his daily acts and thoughts.
In his journals, Brother Isaac writes at length of his efforts to control his lust as a young man, and he complains repeatedly about overwork as he grows older. He defines the rules of his community and identifies transgressors, while enciphering his critical entries (and those chronicling his own sexual desires) to avoid detection and uphold the demand for conformity. At times he admits doubt, but without ever relinquishing the belief that he is on the straight and narrow path to salvation. What emerges in the end is the complex portrait of an ordinary man striving to live up to the imperatives of his faith.
“We know very little about the lived experience of Shakerism from the individual’s point of view. Youngs’s numerous writings, both public and private, make it possible for Wergland to reconstruct a nuanced and detailed story of dedication mixed with occasional doubt.”
Priscilla J. Brewer, author of
Shaker Communities, Shaker Lives
“The documentary base of this study is outstanding. Glendyne Wergland has immersed herself in the rich body of manuscripts produced by Isaac Youngs and also by his contemporaries as well as in the scholarly and popular literature concerning the Shakers. She has written a book that is accessible, clear, and full of details and commentary.”

William Dunlap and the Construction of an American Art History
Maura Lyons
The story of the book that launched an American art tradition
In this well-researched study, Maura Lyons addresses the question, What did the phrase “American art” mean in 1834 when William Dunlap published his two-volume History of the Rise and Progress of the Arts of Design in the United States? Although Dunlap’s book, replete with the biographies of nearly 300 visual artists, is seen today as a foundational text in the creation and construction of American art history, it had actually faded into obscurity by the end of the nineteenth century.
Drawing on manuscript and periodical sources from the period, Lyons furnishes the first full-scale analysis of Dunlap’s work, exploring the significance of his book for the American art world and for the nineteenth-century reading public. Tracing the History’s origins, production, promotion, and reception, Lyons pushes beyond its current canonical status—the result of its twentieth-century rediscovery and revival—to reveal the uncertainty originally surrounding the venture. The History represented a speculative bid for cultural authority that grew out of the intersecting ambitions of its author, one wing of the nascent artistic profession, the burgeoning publishing industry, and the city of New York.
By revealing the History as an entrepreneurial, partisan, and localized experiment, Lyons reinterprets the book’s contents, elaborating on the roles assigned to the artists Benjamin West and John Trumbull and the book’s championing of New York’s National Academy of Design. Lyons’s study thus illuminates the participation of the History in the process of framing a national culture in the United States during the early nineteenth century.
“A fascinating analysis of William Dunlap’s History, Lyons’ study represents an important contribution to the history of American art, culture, and publishing in the period 1800–1850.”
Alan Wallach, author of Exhibiting Contradiction: Essays on the Art Museum in the United States
“Maura Lyons engages intelligently with William Dunlap’s larger cultural objectives, mines available evidence to delineate his process of collecting material from artists and getting the book published and marketed, and demonstrates notably how different artists’ reactions raised questions about the relationship between artists and public in a newly market-oriented community.”
