The bibliography was compiled by a committee of scholars from the American Studies Association to stimulate interest in interdisciplinary courses in American culture. The Bibliography of American Culture, 1493-1875 was compiled and edited by David R. Weimer and published by University Microfilms in 1957. Most of the materials listed which were published before 1800 are included in American Culture Series I which is available as a separate package of 26 microfilm reels. The present series is constituted of more than 5 ,000 books and pamphlets in the humanities, social sciences, and natural and physical sciences which are not accessible in most libraries. Most of the works are in English and most were written by Americans and published in the United States. Many items in the bibliography which were reprinted or revised after 1900 are not included in the microfilm series. This guide to the film describes reels 359-510 or series years 11-15. Two earlier guides cover years 1-5 and 6-10. The series is released on 35mm positive microfilm in series year segments of 100,000 pages each. The film is not received in order as it is in the bibliography or all at once; each series year contains items from throughout the bibliography. The reel guide material and titles on the film are arranged each series year as they are in the bibliography, that is by 22 main categories and their sub­ divisions. Entries in this guide give reel number, author, title, imprint, code indicating library owning the original, and notes on the film.

Acknowledgements The only thing greater than the many obligations I incurred during the research and writing of this work is the pleasure that I take in acknowledging those debts. It would have been impossible for me to undertake, much less complete, this project without the support of the institutions and people who helped me along the way. Archival research is the sine qua non of history; mine was funded by numerous grants supporting work in repositories from California to Massachusetts. A Friends Fellowship from the McNeil Center for Early American Studies supported my first year of research in the Philadelphia archives and also immersed me in the intellectual ferment and camaraderie for which the Center is justly renowned. A Dissertation Fellowship from the Gilder Lehrman Institute for American History provided months of support to work in the daunting Manuscript Division of the New York Public Library. The Chandis Securities Fellowship from the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens brought me to San Marino and gave me entrée to an unequaled library of primary and secondary sources, in one of the most beautiful spots on Earth.

    The Collins Bible

    THE COLLINS BIBLE BY RICHARD F. HIXSON Mr. Hixson, a professor of communication in Rutgers College, is editor of the Journal. This article is excerpted from his Isaac Collins: A Quaker Printer in 18th Century America (New Brunswick, N.J., 1968). HE career of Isaac Collins constitutes an important part of the early history of printing, publishing, and journalism in the Middle States. From his presses in Philadelphia, Bur- lington and Trenton, New Jersey, and New York City, in the years 1770 to 1808, came some of the finest specimens of American print- ing. He was foremost a book publisher and bookseller, but he also published a Revolutionary newspaper and served as New Jersey's official government printer for several years. Many of his imprints, as well as those of other early New Jersey printers, are on file in the Special Collections Department of the Rutgers University Library. Collins, a member of the Society of Friends, issued many Quaker tracts and histories as well as numerous books about other faiths -y however, he was equally well known as the publisher of outstanding works on slavery, education, American history, and medicine. His greatest single achievement as publisher and craftsman was his 1791 edition of the King James Bible, the second quarto edition to be printed in America. To this work Collins brought all the skills of an eminent master printer and typographer, but in his solid concern for a definitive text he enlisted the aid not only of the Friends but of prominent Episcopalians, Baptists, and Presbyterians, including Dr. John Witherspoon of Princeton.

    1 “Extracts from some Rebel Papers”: Patriots, Loyalists, and the Perils of Wartime Printing Joseph M. Adelman National Endowment for the Humanities Fellow American Antiquarian Society Presented to the Joint Seminar of the McNeil Center for Early American Studies And the Program in Early American Economy and Society, LCP Library Company of Philadelphia, 1314 Locust Street, Philadelphia 24 February 2012 3-5 p.m. *** DRAFT: Please do not cite, quote, or distribute without permission of the author. *** 2 The eight years of the Revolutionary War were difficult for the printing trade. After over a decade of growth and increasing entanglement among printers as their networks evolved from commercial lifelines to the pathways of political protest, the fissures of the war dispersed printers geographically and cut them off from their peers. Maintaining commercial success became increasingly complicated as demand for printed matter dropped, except for government printing, and supply shortages crippled communications networks and hampered printers’ ability to produce and distribute anything that came off their presses. Yet even in their diminished state, printers and their networks remained central not only to keeping open lines of communication among governments, armies, and civilians, but also in shaping public opinion about the central ideological issues of the war, the outcomes of battles, and the meaning of events affecting the war in North America and throughout the Atlantic world. What happened to printers and their networks is of vital importance for understanding the Revolution. The texts that historians rely on, from Common Sense and The Crisis to rural newspapers, almanacs, and even diaries and correspondence, were shaped by the commercial and political forces that printers navigated as they produced printed matter that defined the scope of debate and the nature of the discussion about the war.

The initial objective was the discovery cf primary materials from the period to fill a gap in the history of American educational thought and practice. Extensive searching cf unpublished and uncatalogued library holdings, mainly those of major public and university libraries, yielded a significant quantity of primary documents for this bibliography. The historical and contemporary works, comprising approximately 4,500 primary and secondary educational resources with some surveying the cultural setting of educational thinking in this period, are organized around 26 topics and 109 subtopics with cross-references. Among the educational issues covered by the cited materials are: public vs. private; coed vs. separate; academic freedom, teacher education; teaching and learning theory; and, equality of educational opportunity. In addition to historical surveys and other secondary materials, primary documents include: government documents, books, journals, newspapers, and speeches.

The Editor of the Souvenir has had occasion to remark in previous editions that each Legislature has some peculiar characteristic to distinguish it from all others It fell to the lot of the Legislature of 1898, for the first time in over 30 years, or the usuil span of a generation, to make war preparations and to discuss war measures. The breaking out of the war with Spain found our Legislature rjady to do its part promptly and patriotically. With absolute unanimity and no more delay than was necessary for the making of the proper motions and the sig- nature of the bill by Governor Wolcott, the whole transaction occupying less than half an hour, the war appropriation of half a million dollars was voted ; and in the Senate the enactment of the measure was greeted with three cheers. No partisan discussion but patriotic action marked every measure of similar import. But this Souvenir is not intended as a record of what was done.
