  • Political History of Nevada: Chapter 1
    Political History of Nevada Chapter 1 Politics in Nevada, Circa 2016 37 CHAPTER 1: POLITICS IN NEVADA, CIRCA 2016 Nevada: A Brief Historiography By EMERSON MARCUS in Nevada Politics State Historian, Nevada National Guard Th e Political History of Nevada is the quintessential reference book of Nevada elections and past public servants of this State. Journalists, authors, politicians, and historians have used this offi cial reference for a variety of questions. In 1910, the Nevada Secretary of State’s Offi ce fi rst compiled the data. Th e Offi ce updated the data 30 years later in 1940 “to meet a very defi nite and increasing interest in the political history of Nevada,” and has periodically updated it since. Th is is the fi rst edition following the Silver State’s sesquicentennial, and the State’s yearlong celebration of 150 years of Statehood in 2014. But this brief article will look to examine something other than political data. It’s more about the body of historical work concerning the subject of Nevada’s political history—a brief historiography. A short list of its contributors includes Dan De Quille and Mark Twain; Sam Davis and James Scrugham; Jeanne Wier and Anne Martin; Richard Lillard and Gilman Ostrander; Mary Ellen Glass and Effi e Mona Mack; Russell Elliott and James Hulse; William Rowley and Michael Green. Th eir works standout as essential secondary sources of Nevada history. For instance, Twain’s Roughing It (1872), De Quille’s Big Bonanza (1876) and Eliot Lord’s Comstock Mining & Mines (1883) off er an in-depth and anecdote-rich— whether fact or fi ction—glance into early Nevada and its mining camp way of life.

  • Togo and Mali 1959-1961
    John Gunther Dean’s introductory comments to the 5 files on Togo and Mali and complete inventory of the individual folders [7 pages] donated to the National Archives of the USA [The Jimmy Carter Library in Atlanta, Georgia]. [1959 – 1961]. 1 Inventory and comments on J.G.Dean’s files on Opening U.S. diplomatic missions in West Africa after independence Togo and Mali 1959 – 1961 Introduction to the files entitled “Opening U.S. diplomatic missions in West Africa after independence: 1959 – 1961” In the year 1960 independence came to many parts of West Africa. It was an exciting time as colonies and trust territories received their independence. Perhaps Washington’s primary concern was that the newly independent countries would not turn to the Soviet Union or Communist China as models for development. Sekou Touré of Guinea had opted for that path. As a young Foreign Service Officer, John Gunther Dean participated in establishing an American presence in two countries acceding to independence: Togo and Mali. In order to fully understand what happened and who did what to whom, it is useful to read first J.G.D.’s Oral History on his experiences in West Africa. [Item 1 of this chapter] In Togo, J.G.D. not only opened the post, but was also asked to pinch hit as Diplomatic Advisor for the new President of Togo, Sylvanus Olympio. In Mali, J.G.D. was the first foreign representative and was helpful to Mali’s march toward modernization and democracy. More than 40 years later U.S. - Malian relations are still excellent.
