One of Cooper's best!By Dr. LeroyThis is a book I have already recommended to friends! I first thought it was another novel, but soon realized that it was an actual account of the life of a sailor!! Wise insight as well, as to the power of God to change a life! I was actually on Java when finishing the book, and was struck by the narrator's comments!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. as best as Ned could rememberBy James GilliesThis format is a booklet and tough to read due to very small print so bought it for a Kindle...story follows much of the life of Ned. in the late 1700s to 1850 approx..almost on a daily basis.Mr. Cooper has written the book from Ned's memories...as best as Ned could remember.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Three StarsBy CustomerLong About the Author- James Fenimore Cooper (September 15, 1789 – September 14, 1851) was a prolific and popular American writer of the early 19th century. His historical romances of frontier and Indian life in the early American days created a unique form of American literature. He lived most of his life in Cooperstown, New York, which was established by his father William. Cooper was a lifelong member of the Episcopal Church and in his later years contributed generously to it He attended Yale University for three years, where he was a member of the Linonian Society, but was expelled for misbehavior. Before embarking on his career as a writer he served in the U.S. Navy as a Midshipman which greatly influenced many of his novels and other writings. He is best remembered as a novelist who wrote numerous sea-stories and the historical novels known as the Leatherstocking Tales. Among naval historians Cooper's works on the early U.S. Navy have been well received, but they were sometimes criticized by his contemporaries. Among his most famous works is the Romantic novel The Last of the Mohicans, often regarded as his masterpiece. -wikipedia For more eBooks visit www.kartindo.com About the AuthorFirst renowned American novelist.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

The Link to James Fenimore Cooper?
THE POUGHKEEPSIE FACTOR: THE LINK TO JAMES FENIMORE COOPER? BY NORMAN BARRY I. INTRODUCTION (REVISED NOV. 2018) The year 2011 produced several revelations concerning the early distribution of “The Helmsman of Lake Erie.” The Baltimore Sun no longer topped the list of publications of “The Helmsman,” and the Wisconsin Argus no longer headed the list of “A”-versions. Instead, The Poughkeepsie Journal and Eagle was head of the pack: A-VERSION: NAME PLACE B-VERSION: NAME PLACE DATE DATE 1845: 1845: 1 19 JULY 1845 POUGHKEEPSIE POUGHKEEPSIE, JOURNAL & EAGLE NEW YORK 2 26 JULY 1845 MAINE CULTIVATOR HALLOWELL, & HALLOWELL MAINE WEEKLY GAZETTE 3 14 AUG. 1845 MOHAWK COURIER LITTLE FALLS, NEW YORK 4 30 AUG. 1845 BALTIMORE SUN BALTIMORE, MARYLAND 02 SEPT. 1845 MADISON, 5 WISCONSIN ARGUS WISCONSIN TERRITORY As of October 2018, the publishing landscape of “The Helmsman” experienced no less than a Copernican Revolution. The first publication of the John Maynard sketch was no longer located in the United States, but in London, England: A-VERSION: NAME PLACE B-VERSION: NAME PLACE DATE DATE 1845: 1845: 1 07 JUNE 1845 THE CHURCH OF LONDON, ENGLAND MAGAZINE ENGLAND 2 14 JUNE 1845 THE LANCASTER LANCASTER, GAZETTE ENGLAND 3 19 JULY 1845 POUGHKEEPSIE POUGHKEEPSIE, JOURNAL & EAGLE NEW YORK 4 26 JULY 1845 MAINE CULTIVATOR HALLOWELL, & HALLOWELL MAINE WEEKLY GAZETTE 5 14 AUG. 1845 MOHAWK COURIER LITTLE FALLS, NEW YORK 6 30 AUG. 1845 BALTIMORE SUN BALTIMORE, MARYLAND 02 SEPT. 1845 MADISON, 7 WISCONSIN ARGUS WISCONSIN TERRITORY 1 The discovery of The Church of England Magazine as the very first publication of “The Helmsman of Lake Erie” in no way diminishes the importance of Poughkeepsie as the first place of publication in the United States.

Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America
“The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America Bryan Charles Sinche A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: Philip F. Gura Reader: William L. Andrews Reader: Joy S. Kasson Reader: Timothy Marr Reader: Eliza C. Richards © 2006 Bryan C. Sinche ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Bryan C. Sinche: “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America (Under the direction of Philip F. Gura) In “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America, I argue that fictional and non-fictional antebellum sea literature offers a valuable lens through which to critique authorial responses to race, social class, and economic mobility. The antebellum sailor populating the pages of the sea narrative was often celebrated as a representative American figure and a source of national pride despite the fact that, as a member of the antebellum working classes, he was a living testament to the limits of economic and social advancement in a nation where such limits were supposedly nonexistent. Authors used this disconnect, as well as the extra-national settings and generic conventions unique to the sea narrative, both to illuminate foundational American ideals and expose the failure of those ideals to improve materially the lives of sailors. In first section of The Test of Salt Water, I draw on writings by common sailors as well as well- known narratives authored by upper-class former seamen such as James Fenimore Cooper and Richard Henry Dana to map the rhetorical battles that helped to define the sailor within antebellum class hierarchies.

The Helmsman of Lake Erie” to Poughkeepsie; Or
Two Transatlantic Passages: The Convoluted Path of “The Helmsman of Lake Erie” to Poughkeepsie; Or, How to Hide (and Smuggle) a Manuscript By Norman Barry With the discovery of the June 7, 1845, issue of The Church of England Magazine, thoughts invariably turn to a genteel country parson penning his anonymous John Maynard sketch from the comfort of his half-timbered Elizabethan parsonage, possibly nestled in Kent or Surrey. Yet, to paraphrase my introduction to the October 2018 discovery [1], the irksome question must be entertained as to who in Britain would possess not only the knowledge of both the Erie and the Swallow steamboat tragedies, but also possess both the maritime writing talent, the imaginative genius, and – a sine qua non – the distinctive thought patterns or mental disposition, to create a new “Hero of Lake Erie.”[2] Or, viewed from the American side, which American author possessed the means to achieve fast publication in England? And why would an American writer opt for anonymity and go to such great lengths to cover his tracks by depositing his sketch in a Church of England publication? The most obvious link between the two disastrous shipwrecks is suggested by the very name of the sketch, “The Helmsman of Lake Erie.” Augustus Fuller, the wheelsman of the Erie, died the night of August 9, 1841. According to the testimony of Captain T. J. Titus of the Erie before the Coroner’s Inquest, Fuller remained at his post in the vain attempt to reach the saving shore: “Am of the opinion that I was the last person who left the Erie, when I left her, I heard much confusion but saw no person; think Fuller remained at the wheel and never left it until burned to death; he was always a resolute man in obeying orders.” —From the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, Thursday Evening, August 12, 1841.

I. 20Th-C. LITERATURE
I. 20 th -C. L ITERATURE . ASBURY, Herbert . Typescript of “An Infernal Triangle: A Travesty in One Act ”. Typescript with some autograph cor - rections in ink and stage directions in pencil; 20 ff. 4to, [New York]: 1917. Maroon wrappers, yapp edges worn; two brass fasteners; vertical crease through all leaves. $500 A very early, unpublished drama by Asbury (1889-1963), author of Gangs of New York (1928) and other popular true-crime histories. An Infernal Triangle was written when Asbury was a staff reporter for the New York Sun , and pre - cedes his first published book, Up From Methodism (1926), by nine years. An Infernal Triangle has many of the elements that Asbury would explore in his mature work — corruption, vice, hypocrisy, greed, gambling — but is styl - istically afield from his later work. Cuckold Aloysius H. McSweeney, catching his wife in the arms of another man, Ambrose Klutz, the Duke de Hangdog, attempts to take his revenge with an air rifle. His wife protests that she will consent to murder only if a suitable undertaker is engaged, and suggests her brother Cecil (from whom Mrs. McSweeney will receive a kickback). Along with the absurdist touch - es — including a failed venture to export suspenders to Africa (where pants aren’t worn), and an inheritance of three potatoes — are the petty bicker - ings and pointed barbs of a very real dysfunctional marriage. A curious and unique item. . BALDWIN, James . If Beale Street Could talk . 197 pp. 8vo, New York: The Dial Press, 1974. Third Printing. Orange cloth; shaken and soiled, good. $750 on the dedication page to the author’s nephew, also James Baldwin: “For my very much beloved nephew, James with all my love Uncle James.” Baldwin’s essay, “My Dungeon Shook — Letter to my Nephew on the One Hundredth Anniversary of Emancipation,” which formed half of his ground- breaking work on race in America, The Fire Next Time , was addressed to 14- year-old James.

A., B. A. (Hons.) The Ohio State University 1965 Approved by gfVftvn t Adviser Department of English ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Coming from a tradition-drenched land, wherein the teacher is a link between the pupil and Reality, I have discovered here planetary- minded professors, who have been more helpful to me than I might have expected. I owe my success, in a large measure, to Professor William Charvat, who as one of the most distinguished scholars in American Literature agreeably surprised me three years ago by offering to be my adviser, and who has directed this dissertation with sustained interest throughout the progress of this project. The subject (or, "germ," to use a Jamesian term) was greedily grabbed by me in a course in American fiction, which I took with the professor. He has ungrudgingly permitted to be looted and quoted in various parts of this study. I am grateful to Professors Roy H. Pearce, Andrew Wright, and Claude Simpson, who helped me prepare for the General Examination during the year Professor Charvat was away in Spain promoting the study of American Literature, although each ruthlessly added more books to the reading list.

MosT of my readers are aware that the present work has previously made its appearance in the columns of a widely circulated journal of this city, on which I had the honor for a long period of being engaged as the principal editor; and during which period I wrote, from week to week, a series of arti. des, which I may say, without laying myself exposed to the charge of egotism, most undoubtedly formed the basis of the present literary reputation of the New York Picayune. It must be obvious to every one that the performances of a writer for a public journal, situated as I was then, have a great claim to their consideration. A man who, for instance, receives a polite note from the printer in the evening, stating that his compositors are "standing for copy," and that it is necessary that they should be furnished with four or five columns by the next morning, has hut little time for reflection or references.
