Much of its career was spent printing postal cards, and it remained in service until 1974. vi FOREWORD to the revised edition Rapid change is a commonplace in the digital era, as new technologies overtake the old at a dizzying speed. That pace of change is no less true at GPO, where we approach our 155th anniversary now as the Government Publishing Office, having been so designated by the President and Congress in 2014 to recognize our successful use of digital technologies in meeting the needs of our customers for modern information products and services. The publication of this revised edition of Keeping America Informed is appropriate to this occasion, incorporating as it does the work of a robust historical program that has shed new light on key stories from our past, notably GPO’s close connection with President Lincoln, the agency’s experience with segregation during the Jim Crow era, a long-forgotten proposal to develop a Government paper mill, an analysis of how big GPO truly was in terms of its equipment and machinery, and a close-up look at GPO’s production of the edited transcripts of the Presidential tapes during the Watergate crisis of the early 1970’s. These and other narratives are now documented here, along with additional images from GPO’s extensive photographic library. As Public Printer Boarman pointed out in his foreword to the 2011 edition, Keeping America Informed is first and foremost the story of the men and women who have worked here across the years, and of their remarkable ability to adapt to and master technological change. Gone today are the GPO’s former name, and gone, too, is the title of Public Printer as the agency’s head. While traditional printing continues as a primary function of the GPO, equally important to our mission today are the maintenance of one of the Government’s largest and most heavily used websites, the production of ePassports and eBooks, and the release of official information products in new forms and formats such as mobile apps and bulk data downloads. We continue to pioneer new forms of Government information dissemination with new and emerging technologies. Yet regardless of form or format, GPO’s essential task—carrying out the constitutional informing function that is so vital to the American system of self-government—remains unchanged. This revised edition of Keeping American Informed updates our continuing story. DAVITA VANCE-COOKS Director U.S. Government Publishing Office February 2016 vii FOREWORD The U.S. Government Printing Office published its last official history 50 years ago, marking its centennial anniversary. 100 GPO Years 1861–1961 has proven to be a remarkably valuable resource and deserves to stand alone as an enduring contribution to the historical record of this great agency. Instead of trying to improve on it, with the approach of our 150th anniversary we decided to recreate the telling of GPO’s story. Keeping America Informed: The U.S. Government Printing Office: 150 Years of Service to the Nation recasts our history in a fresh light, with new contributions and emphases, and provides the reader with a greater exposure to GPO’s rich photographic record, with many of the images in this book published for the first time. Most important of all, Keeping America Informed describes how the agency has transformed itself through the years by continually adapting to the most efficient technologies available to get its work done. In the ink-on-paper era, this meant moving from handset to machine-set type, from slower to high-speed presses, and from hand to automated bookbinding. These changes enabled GPO to keep up with the demands of a growing Nation and helped keep costs down, and they were significant for their time. Yet they pale by comparison with the transformation that accompanied GPO’s incorporation of electronic information technologies, the single most dominant trend at the agency of the past 50 years, and the generator of unprecedented improvements in productivity and hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer savings that continue into the present. Today, GPO is fundamentally different from what it was as recently as a generation ago: smaller, leaner, and equipped with digital production capabilities that are the bedrock of the information systems relied upon daily by Congress, Federal agencies, and the public to ensure open and transparent Government in the digital era. Keeping America Informed is a portrait of the generations of men and women who have worked here as compositors, proofreaders, platemakers, press operators, bookbinders, printing plant workers, librarians, engineering and maintenance staff, accountants, information technology technicians, personnel specialists, police officers, and all the other functions required by GPO. Few Federal agencies can count as their heritage the scope of the work GPO has performed, ranging from the first printing of the Emancipation Proclamation to providing digital access to the Government’s publications today. The men and women of GPO are responsible for that heritage. Keeping America Informed is a new telling of their story and their enduring achievements. William J.

  • Civil War Generals Buried in Spring Grove Cemetery by James Barnett
    Spring Grove Cemetery, once characterized as blending "the elegance of a park with the pensive beauty of a burial-place," is the final resting- place of forty Cincinnatians who were generals during the Civil War. Forty For the Union: Civil War Generals Buried in Spring Grove Cemetery by James Barnett f the forty Civil War generals who are buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, twenty-three had advanced from no military experience whatsoever to attain the highest rank in the Union Army. This remarkable feat underscores the nature of the Northern army that suppressed the rebellion of the Confed- erate states during the years 1861 to 1865. Initially, it was a force of "inspired volunteers" rather than a standing army in the European tradition. Only seven of these forty leaders were graduates of West Point: Jacob Ammen, Joshua H. Bates, Sidney Burbank, Kenner Garrard, Joseph Hooker, Alexander McCook, and Godfrey Weitzel. Four of these seven —Burbank, Garrard, Mc- Cook, and Weitzel —were in the regular army at the outbreak of the war; the other three volunteered when the war started. Only four of the forty generals had ever been in combat before: William H. Lytle, August Moor, and Joseph Hooker served in the Mexican War, and William H. Baldwin fought under Giuseppe Garibaldi in the Italian civil war. This lack of professional soldiers did not come about by chance. When the Constitutional Convention met in Philadelphia in 1787, its delegates, who possessed a vast knowledge of European history, were determined not to create a legal basis for a standing army. The founding fathers believed that the stand- ing armies belonging to royalty were responsible for the endless bloody wars that plagued Europe.

Smith Argir 1 Universal religious toleration and the separation of Church and State are two principles that many consider integral to the United States of America. However, few know the history behind these protections or their original intent, to protect religion from the state, or of the first law in which they were present, The Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, authored by Thomas Jefferson and adopted by the Virginia Legislature in 1786. This paper will examine the history behind the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, paying close attention to both the history of American Church and State relations prior to the Statute, and to the motives that its author and main proponent, Thomas Jefferson, had for drafting it.
