Cusliing & Co. — Berwick & Smith Co. 24orwood, Mass., U.S.A. PREFATOEY NOTE It is now nearly three score years since Nathaniel P. Moore prepared " An Historical Sketch of Columbia Col- lege," which was published in 1846 while its author was President. A revision of Dr. Moore's history, under- taken by Professor Van Amringe and published in 1876, continued the annals of the College down to the earlier years of the administration of President Barnard. To an elaborate work of reference, entitled " American Uni- versities and their Sons," published in 1898, Professor Van Amringe contributed a history of Columbia, from its foundation as King's College to its removal to Morning- side Heights ; and numerous historical articles have from time to time been published by George H. Moore, John MacMuUen, John B. Pine, and others. It has seemed to the Trustees of the Columbia University Press, however, that a more comprehensive work was needed, and that such a work would most appropriately commemorate the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the College. They have accordingly appointed a sub- committee to take charge of the publication of a history of the University, which shall record the successive phases of its expansion and trace the development of each of its component schools and colleges. For this volume Dean Van Amringe has revised and continued his account Tl PKEI'ATOEY NOTE of the undergraduate College, now reestablished as an independent school in the larger University which has grown out of it. Other members of the teaching and administrative staff have undertaken to set forth the history of the other schools and of the several colleges which have been incorporated in the University. How successfully they have accomplished this object the fol- lowing- pages bear witness, and the Editorial Committee takes this occasion to express its grateful appreciation to the writers who have made possible the publication of this narrative.

  • The Church Militant: the American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92
    The Church Militant: The American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92 Peter W. Walker Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Peter Walker All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Church Militant: The American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92 Peter W. Walker This dissertation is a study of the loyalist Church of England clergy in the American Revolution. By reconstructing the experience and identity of this largely-misunderstood group, it sheds light on the relationship between church and empire, the role of religious pluralism and toleration in the American Revolution, the dynamics of loyalist politics, and the religious impact of the American Revolution on Britain. It is based primarily on the loyalist clergy’s own correspondence and writings, the records of the American Loyalist Claims Commission, and the archives of the SPG (the Church of England’s missionary arm). The study focuses on the New England and Mid-Atlantic colonies, where Anglicans formed a religious minority and where their clergy were overwhelmingly loyalist. It begins with the founding of the SPG in 1701 and its first forays into America. It then examines the state of religious pluralism and toleration in New England, the polarising contest over the proposed creation of an American bishop after the Seven Years’ War, and the role of the loyalist clergy in the Revolutionary War itself, focusing particularly on conflicts occasioned by the Anglican liturgy and Book of Common Prayer.

CHARLES KING 1 of 12 6/4/2020, 7:03 PM The Reinvention of Humanity by Charles King book review https://www.the-tls.co.uk/articles/reinvention-of-humanity-cha... he President of the United States was saying “America must be kept American”, emboldening white supremacists to blame darker-skinned T immigrants for causing crime and taking working-class jobs. It was the 1920s, and the US was erecting barriers against immigration, with severe effects on those who were poor or classed as non-white. White patricians, feeling under threat from those who spoke foreign languages and clustered in tenements, rallied around a confident, energetic, mustachioed ideologue named Madison Grant, a wealthy New Yorker and close friend of President Theodore Roosevelt. Grant’s book The Passing of the Great Race (1916) implausibly suggested that America had once been racially homogeneous but was becoming degraded by immigration – plunged into a chaotic, impoverished “racial abyss”. “Teutonics” or “Nordics” like him were being “replaced”, he warned, by “lower” races and would soon be “extinct”. Grant’s malevolent thesis that racial mixing posed a grave threat to white vitality was seized on by Hitler, who in 1925 wrote Grant a fan letter, praising the German translation of his book as “my Bible”.

Now published for the first Time. New-York: Printed for COLUMBIANA atthe UNIVERSITYPRESS, M.CM.XXXI. Edited and annotated by MILTON HALSEY THOMAS, B.Sc. Curator of Columbiana Reprinted from the COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY QUARTERLY March, 1931, Vol. XXIII, No. i FOREWORD Columbia is most fortunate in having had preserved through a hundred and sixty years that extraordinary docu­ ment, "The Book of Misdemeanours in King's College, New York." Myles Cooper, coming to the College after seven years at Oxford, did much to fit it into the pattern of his alma mater, and as part of his system of rigid discipline he introduced the Black Book, which had been for centuries a tradition at Queen's College, Oxford. In its pages, as in no other record which has come down to us, we can be with the students of King's College day by day in the most inti­ mate manner. Aside from its interest as a human docu­ ment, the Black Book has great value as an unconsciously transmitted source-book with its off-hand mention of facts which historians will eagerly pounce upon. The original is a black leather volume measuring seven and three-fourths by six and one-fourth inches; it is a blank- book of about a hundred and fifty leaves, of which only the first thirty-one pages and the last page bear writing.

  • John Vardill: a Loyalist's Progress
    JOHN VARDILL: A LOYALIST'S PROGRESS by STEVEN GRAHAM WIGELY .A., University of California at Irvine, 1971 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of History We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA May, 1975 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of History The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 ABSTRACT This thesis is a study of a loyalist of the American Revolution named John .Vardill. A native of New York who went to England in 1774, he was an Anglican clergyman, a pamphlet• eer, a professor at King's College (New York), and a spy for the British. The purpose of the thesis is: 1. to tell his story, and 2. to argue that his loyalism was a perfectly rea• sonable consequence of his environment and experiences. The text begins with an Introduction (Chapter I) which places Vardill in colonial and English society, and justifies studying one who was neither among the very powerful nor the very weak. It then proceeds to a consideration of the circum• stances and substance of his claim for compensation from the , British government after the war (Chapter II).
