AMERICAN MANHOOD in the CIVIL WAR ERA a Dissertation Submitted
UNMADE: AMERICAN MANHOOD IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Michael E. DeGruccio _________________________________ Gail Bederman, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana July 2007 UNMADE: AMERICAN MANHOOD IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA Abstract by Michael E. DeGruccio This dissertation is ultimately a story about men trying to tell stories about themselves. The central character driving the narrative is a relatively obscure officer, George W. Cole, who gained modest fame in central New York for leading a regiment of black soldiers under the controversial General Benjamin Butler, and, later, for killing his attorney after returning home from the war. By weaving Cole into overlapping micro-narratives about violence between white officers and black troops, hidden war injuries, the personal struggles of fellow officers, the unbounded ambition of his highest commander, Benjamin Butler, and the melancholy life of his wife Mary Barto Cole, this dissertation fleshes out the essence of the emergent myth of self-made manhood and its relationship to the war era. It also provides connective tissue between the top-down war histories of generals and epic battles and the many social histories about the “common soldier” that have been written consciously to push the historiography away from military brass and Lincoln’s administration. Throughout this dissertation, mediating figures like Cole and those who surrounded him—all of lesser ranks like major, colonel, sergeant, or captain—hem together what has previously seemed like the disconnected experiences of the Union military leaders, and lowly privates in the field, especially African American troops. -

Pirate Articles and Their Society, 1660-1730
‘Piratical Schemes and Contracts’: Pirate Articles and their Society, 1660-1730 Submitted by Edward Theophilus Fox to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Maritime History In May 2013 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Abstract During the so-called ‘golden age’ of piracy that occurred in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans in the later seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, several thousands of men and a handful of women sailed aboard pirate ships. The narrative, operational techniques, and economic repercussions of the waves of piracy that threatened maritime trade during the ‘golden age’ have fascinated researchers, and so too has the social history of the people involved. Traditionally, the historiography of the social history of pirates has portrayed them as democratic and highly egalitarian bandits, divided their spoil fairly amongst their number, offered compensation for comrades injured in battle, and appointed their own officers by popular vote. They have been presented in contrast to the legitimate societies of Europe and America, and as revolutionaries, eschewing the unfair and harsh practices prevalent in legitimate maritime employment. This study, however, argues that the ‘revolutionary’ model of ‘golden age’ pirates is not an accurate reflection of reality. -
BATCHELORS DELIGHT for Web-1
The College of William & Mary was founded on PIRATE LOOT – aaarrrgh! Buccaneers Davis, Wafer & Hingson, and the Ship Batchelors Delight By John Fitzhugh Millar, 2010, updated subsequently College Graduates Form a Plan In 1682, Charles II (reigned 1660-1685) was regarded by many at the time as the best king England ever had, the two ridiculous wars he waged against the Netherlands (1665-7 and 1672-4) not withstanding. For example, the charter he issued to Rhode Island in 1662 is a model of liberalism, and his Habeas Corpus Act of 1679 is not only a cornerstone of Western law but also completely his own idea. He fostered the advancement of science through founding the Royal Society (still the premier scientific body in the world), and he served as a committed patron of British art, music and architecture (Sir Christopher Wren and his teacher Elizabeth Lady Wilbraham being his leading architects). However, since Charles had no legitimate children and was nearing the end of his life, it was becoming obvious that his brother James would be the next king, and James had a good chance of becoming one of the worst kings England ever had (and he did not disappoint). Therefore, a group of about fifty men in their early twenties, mostly recent graduates of colleges at Oxford and Cambridge, decided to get out while the getting was good, and seek their fortunes elsewhere. They intended to go on a “privateering” voyage (a polite word for “pirating”) to the Caribbean, even though they knew little about sailing (the hired captain would know what to do). -

S:lnTH r INTRODUCTION It is a well-known fact that the authentic chronicles of the history of the Onondaga coun try, as they have existed in permanent form, have been deficient in a marked degree. ~' Clark's Onondaga '', published a half-century and more ago, always has been the authority on Onondaga's early affairs. Of that esteemed writer's work there can be no criticism. It forms a solid and substantial basis for facts which, but for it, would have been lost to pos terity. With the death of the late Carroll E. Smith there came to this community a loss_greater than can he known at a date so near to the demise of that esteemed man. As years roll by, the real ization of this fact will become the more keen. ·Carroll E. S~ith, LL.D., was unquestionably the historian of Syracuse and the Onondaga country, and his acknowledged reputation as a writer of facts made his death the more regret table to the public, for his busy, useful life had not spared to him the time necessary to place before the people in enduring, readily accessible form that accurate knowledge he alone possessed (5) 6 PIO~""EER TIMES IN ONONDAGA of the city and county with whose growth he was so closely and familiarly identified. -

VE DAY WW2 Players As at May 2020
CLAPTON ORIENT DURING WW2 -- as at 6 May 2020 In celebration of the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe - VE Day on 8 May 1945 club historian Neilson Kaufman looks back at the men who appeared for O’s during World War Two Special Thanks A special word of thanks to five people who helped the Author in compiling this section. Peter Holme a researcher at the National Football Museum, Football Historians Ian Nannstead, Kenneth Westerberg and Terry Frost. Also special thanks to my assistant historian Davis Watson for his assistance in research some of the players. Finally, last, but not least, long standing O’s supporter and club Ambassador and friend Alan Chandler for the helping me on the research of players over the Second World War period, supplying team sheets for some matches over 1939-46. Sadly, Alan died Sunday, 8 December 2019 and also my former deputy historian and co-writer Alan Ravenhill, who died during September 2015. Without their help this section would not have been fully completed. Unlike in the First World War when three of O’s players were killed in action, none of those profiled below were killed over the Second World War unlike Arsenal who had nine of its players killed in action. This section on O’s history is dedicated to preserving and promoting the history and players of the O’s during World War Two Below are profiles of the wartime players to appear for O's and a name listing with appearances of the amateur players, where detailed profiled information was not always available?
