  • Interpretation Plan
    8 Interpretation Plan Introduction This section of the corridor management plan provides guidance and direction for interpretive activities along the 287-mile long Byway. An important aspect of this byway’s interpretive strategy is to mesh resource management, product development and marketing within the interpretive effort. Each aspect of the byway’s efforts in each of these four categories should augment and support the other byway development categories. Status of Interpretation along the Byway There are existing interpretive strategies along the byway that are distinctive and unique that should be noted. These communities What Is Interpretation?

  • Vol. 27/ 3 (1946)
    Reviews of Books Singin' Yankees. By PHIUP D. JORDAN. (Minneapolis, The University of Minnesota Press, 1946. xi, 305 p. IUustrations. $3.50.) The social history of nineteenth<entury America is a rich stream which even yet is incompletely revealed. Subordinate to such dominant currents as the rise of industrialism and imperialistic politics were multifarious eddies and freshets: the temperance movement, communistic experiments, fads such as Grahamism and hydrotherapy, feminism, abolitionism. More­ over, the growing cities demanded entertainment and avidly patronized Swiss bell ringers, circus freaks like Tom Thumb, concert prima donnas, lecmrers, evangelists, vocalists. Those stage troupers who could combine the amusing with the hortatory were most successful in pleasing the fre­ quendy bipartisan audiences. The long success of the Hutchinson famUy as popular entertainers can thus be attributed in part to their skUl in fusing singing, first, with the cause of abolitionism and, later, with that of temperance. Jesse and Polly Hutchinson, the parents of the famous famUy of vocalists, were New Hampshire farmers who reared fourteen children in the austere way of life to which they themselves were accustomed. The granite-strewn farm in the Souhegan Valley offered little time for leisure or play; there were too many mouths to feed and the land was gritty and rough. When several of the boys ventured to sing in public they met with their father's stern disapproval. Old Jesse Hutchinson had strong moral and practical objections. But the quartette composed of Asa, Judson, John, and Abby, by singing at churches and various religious meetings, gradually weakened domestic prejudice, and by diligent trouping brought back more money to the old farm home than those left to till the soU could produce.
