Engstrom offers an important, historically grounded perspective on the stakes of congressional redistricting by evaluating the impact of gerrymandering on elections and on party control of the U.S. national government from 1789 through the reapportionment revolution of the 1960s. In this era before the courts supervised redistricting, state parties enjoyed wide discretion with regard to the timing and structure of their districting choices. Although Congress occasionally added language to federal- apportionment acts requiring equally populous districts, there is little evidence this legislation was enforced. Essentially, states could redistrict largely whenever and however they wanted, and so, not surpris- ingly, political considerations dominated the process. Engstrom employs the abundant cross- sectional and temporal varia- tion in redistricting plans and their electoral results from all the states— throughout U.S. history— in order to investigate the causes and con- sequences of partisan redistricting.

  • Asher Benjamin As an Architect in Windsor, Vermont
    Summer 1974 VOL. 42 NO.3 The GpROCEEDINGS of the VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY This famous architect built a meetinghouse and three private houses in Windsor before he left for Boston in 1802 ... Asher Benjamin as an Architect in Windsor, Vennont By JOHN QUINAN N August of 1802 the architect Asher Benjamin wrote from Boston to I Gideon Granger, the Postmaster General of the United States, seeking aid in obtaining a commission for a marine hospital in that city. Benjamin's letter identifies by name and location most of his first eight commissions - a rare and unusual document in American architectural history which enables us to trace his path northward from Hartford, Con­ necticut, to Windsor, Vermont. Benjamin wrote, in part: "Sir, I have since I left Suffield Conn. built the following houses, Viz. Samuel Hinckley, Northampton, William Coleman's Greenfield, Luke Baldwin's Esq., Brookfield, and a Meeting House and three other large houses in Windsor, Vermont, The Academy at Deerfield. l Most of these commissions have not fared very well. The Deerfield Academy building (Memorial Hall, 1798-1799) was altered sufficiently during the nineteenth century to obscure much of its original character. The Baldwin and Hinckley houses (both c.17%) were demolished early in the twentieth century and are lost to us, and it seems that the William Coleman house in Greenfield (1797) (Fig. 6) is the sole survivor of Benjamin's first decade of practice. But what of the four unnamed build­ ings in Windsor? Are they identifiable? Do they still stand in Windsor? Have they any special interest or significance? The four Windsor buildings are identifiable despite the fact that the three houses have been demolished and the meetinghouse has been altered I.

  • Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S
    Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress By Corey Michael Brooks A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Robin L. Einhorn, Chair Professor David M. Henkin Professor Eric Schickler Fall 2010 Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress © 2010 By Corey Michael Brooks 1 Abstract Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress by Corey Michael Brooks Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Robin L. Einhorn, Chair This dissertation reintegrates abolitionism into the main currents of U.S. political history. Because of a bifurcation between studies of the American antislavery movement and political histories of the sectional conflict, modern scholars have drastically underestimated the significance of abolitionist political activism. Historians often characterize political abolitionists as naïve idealists or separatist moral purists, but I recast them as practical, effective politicians, who capitalized on rare openings in American political institutions to achieve outsized influence in the face of a robust two-party system. Third-party abolitionists shaped national debate far beyond their numbers and played central roles in the emergence of the Republican Party. Over the second half of the 1830s, political abolitionists devised the Slave Power concept, claiming that slaveholder control of the federal government endangered American democracy; this would later become the Republicans‘ most important appeal. Integrating this argument with an institutional analysis of the Second Party System, antislavery activists assailed the Whigs and Democrats—cross-sectional parties that incorporated antislavery voices while supporting proslavery policies—as beholden to the Slave Power.
