INTRODUCTION The papers of the St. Louis businessman, writer, and historian contain correspondence, scrapbooks, book sale announcements, and miscellaneous materials, with an emphasis on St. Louis and Missouri history. DONOR INFORMATION The William Clark Breckenridge Papers were donated to the State Historical Society of Missouri on 28 November 1933 by James M. Breckenridge. SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The William Clark Breckenridge papers consist of correspondence, scrapbooks, book sale announcements, and miscellaneous materials. They are arranged into seven series: Early Printing in Missouri, Returned Items, Correspondence, Book Sale Lists, Miscellaneous Printed Material, Book Sale Correspondence, and Scrapbooks. The Early Printing in Missouri series contains two copies of Early Printing in Missouri, 1808-1849, compiled by Breckenridge and Francis Asbury Sampson. The publication is comprised of lists of articles printed, where, when, and by whom, as well as a list of periodicals published in Missouri. The Returned Items series consists of materials recovered after the Lawrence Lingle theft of items from the scrapbooks and the unworked boxes. Recovered materials were placed in these folders when their original locations could not be determined. These items include autograph letters; a sample written by the Automation Writer at the American Museum, New York, in 1845; a presidential election notice from 1836; a prisoner of war parole form for members of the Trans-Mississippi Department; correspondence; publications; and miscellaneous materials. This series is arranged chronologically. The Correspondence series consists of correspondence with Francis A. Sampson, secretary for the State Historical Society of Missouri and a card file describing each item the Society purchased from Breckenridge. The letters are arranged chronologically and concern buying books and collecting material bearing on Missouri history for the Society and miscellaneous Society business. References to the Missouri Historical Society in St. Louis and its acquisitions, details of Sampson’s travels, family, fossil collection, and his relationships with the Society’s finance committee and trustees are also included in the letters. The Book Sale List series contains book sale lists of W.W. Nesbit, owner of the Shakespeare Book Shop in St. Louis.

Filed alphabetically by correspondent, the letters describe in detail items for sale and include historical information on states, churches, authors, and family genealogies.

Of note in this series is a list of pamphlets and broadsides relating to the political, educational, and social activities of African Americans from 1849 to 1879. Other prominent topics include Mormons, railroads, and the American West.

  • The Political Economy of Monetary Institutions an International Organization Reader Edited by William T
    T he Political Economy of Monetary Institutions he Political The Political Economy of Monetary Institutions An International Organization Reader edited by William T. Bernhard, J. Lawrence Broz, and William Roberts Clark Recent analysis by political economists of monetary institution determi- nants in different countries has been limited by the fact that exchange rate regimes and central bank institutions are studied in isolation from each other, without examining how one institution affects the costs and benefits of the other. By contrast, the contributors to this volume analyze the choice of exchange rate regime and level of central bank independence together; the articles (originally published in a special issue of International Organization) constitute a second generation of research on the determi- nants of monetary institutions. The contributors consider both economic and political factors to explain a country’s choice of monetary institutions, and examine the effect of political processes in democracies, including interest group pressure, on the balance between economic and distribu- tional policy.

  • NORMAN K Denzin Sacagawea's Nickname1, Or the Sacagawea
    NORMAN K DENZIN Sacagawea’s Nickname1, or The Sacagawea Problem The tropical emotion that has created a legendary Sacajawea awaits study...Few others have had so much sentimental fantasy expended on them. A good many men who have written about her...have obviously fallen in love with her. Almost every woman who has written about her has become Sacajawea in her inner reverie (DeVoto, 195, p. 618; see also Waldo, 1978, p. xii). Anyway, what it all comes down to is this: the story of Sacagawea...can be told a lot of different ways (Allen, 1984, p. 4). Many millions of Native American women have lived and died...and yet, until quite recently, only two – Pocahantas and Sacagawea – have left even faint tracings of their personalities on history (McMurtry, 001, p. 155). PROLOGUE 1 THE CAMERA EYE (1) 2: Introduction: Voice 1: Narrator-as-Dramatist This essay3 is a co-performance text, a four-act play – with act one and four presented here – that builds on and extends the performance texts presented in Denzin (004, 005).4 “Sacagawea’s Nickname, or the Sacagawea Problem” enacts a critical cultural politics concerning Native American women and their presence in the Lewis and Clark Journals. It is another telling of how critical race theory and critical pedagogy meet popular history. The revisionist history at hand is the history of Sacagawea and the representation of Native American women in two cultural and symbolic landscapes: the expedition journals, and Montana’s most famous novel, A B Guthrie, Jr.’s mid-century novel (1947), Big Sky (Blew, 1988, p.

  • The Gibson Brothers They Called It Music
    The Gibson Brothers They Called It Music. ~ ( ( Compass 4599 ) ) “They called it music, in the church house and the fields / It was honest, it was simple, and it helped the hard times heal” Last year, Eric and Leigh Gibson found that lyric, from the title track of their new record They Called It Music, to be truer than they could have realized. 2012 was a year of triumph for the Gibsons, who took home the Entertainer of the Year trophy, bluegrass music’s highest honor, at the International Bluegrass Music Awards. But it was also a time of tragedy due to the death of their father, the duo’s biggest supporter, who passed away before he saw his boys recognized on bluegrass music’s biggest stage. Kelley Gibson, the last in a line of family farmers who had tended soil and raised dairy cattle since the Civil War, was adamant that his two sons not follow in his footsteps; he knew all too well the backbreaking labor and financial instability such a career entailed, especially in a town like Ellenburg Depot in upstate New York, where the climate is temperamental and the land ill-suited for growing much beyond hay for the herds. When it comes to sustainability and stability, a career in music isn’t the first that comes to mind. But Eric and Leigh, despite being geographically removed from the genre’s Appalachian roots, have made a name for themselves in bluegrass over the past two decades, playing over 80 shows and festivals a year and gradually building a deeply dedicated, nationwide fan base with their spellbinding harmony singing, which can reach the high lonesome notes of Bill and Charlie Monroe and capture the tenderness of pop/country crooners the Everly Brothers.
