  • Chapter 13: Settling the West, 1865-1900
    The Birth of Modern America 1865–1900 hy It Matters Following the turmoil of the Civil War and W Reconstruction, the United States began its transformation from a rural nation to an indus- trial, urban nation. This change spurred the growth of cities, the development of big busi- ness, and the rise of new technologies such as the railroads. New social pressures, including increased immigration, unionization move- ments, and the Populist movement in politics, characterized the period as well. Understanding this turbulent time will help you understand similar pressures that exist in your life today. The following resources offer more information about this period in American history.

It is also the storm center.” —Josiah Strong, 1885 Settling the West 1865–1900 Why It Matters After the Civil War, a dynamic period in American history opened—the settlement of the West. The lives of Western miners, farmers, and ranchers were often filled with great hardships, but the wave of American settlers continued. Railroads hastened this migration. During this period, many Native Americans lost their homelands and their way of life. The Impact Today Developments of this period are still evident today. • Native American reservations still exist in the United States.

  • American Heritage Day
    American Heritage Day DEAR PARENTS, Each year the elementary school students at Valley Christian Academy prepare a speech depicting the life of a great American man or woman. The speech is written in the first person and should include the character’s birth, death, and major accomplishments. Parents should feel free to help their children write these speeches. A good way to write the speech is to find a child’s biography and follow the story line as you construct the speech. This will make for a more interesting speech rather than a mere recitation of facts from the encyclopedia. Students will be awarded extra points for including spiritual application in their speeches. Please adhere to the following time limits. K-1 Speeches must be 1-3 minutes in length with a minimum of 175 words. 2-3 Speeches must be 2-5 minutes in length with a minimum of 350 words. 4-6 Speeches must be 3-10 minutes in length with a minimum of 525 words. Students will give their speeches in class. They should be sure to have their speeches memorized well enough so they do not need any prompts. Please be aware that students who need frequent prompting will receive a low grade. Also, any student with a speech that doesn’t meet the minimum requirement will receive a “D” or “F.” Students must portray a different character each year. One of the goals of this assignment is to help our children learn about different men and women who have made America great. Help your child choose characters from whom they can learn much.

Barber: "Fountains of Joy" “‘Fountains of Joy’: Alcohol Culture and Hospitality in Nineteenth Century Missouri” Introduction Alcohol has played numerous roles in civilizations. Certainly, in some ancient civilizations producers hailed the nutritional effects of alcohol. In other societies, it allowed those producing it an alternative means to supplement their economic potential. Certainly, Americans have found alcohol a suitable component of their lives since the colonial period, in large part due to a cultural outlook inherited from Europeans, although Africans, and Native American people and cultures coalesced in the New World (Mäkelä, 1983, p. 24). Early on in United States history in regions along the American border between southern, northern, and western states, it made sense for farmers who grew corn or other grains to allow a portion of their crops to ferment into alcohol, which facilitated easier storing or transportation to marketplaces.

  • The Minstrel; Or the Progress of Genius
    The Minstrel; or the Progress of Genius By James Beattie THE MINSTREL; IN TWO BOOKS. _Me vero primum dulces ante omnia Musæ, Quarum sacra fero, ingenti perculsus amore, Accipiant.----_ VIRGIL. THE MINSTREL; OR, THE PROGRESS OF GENIUS. BOOK FIRST. I. Ah! who can tell how hard it is to climb The steep, where Fame's proud temple shines afar! Ah! who can tell how many a soul sublime Has felt the influence of malignant star, And waged with Fortune an eternal war! Checked by the scoff of Pride, by Envy's frown, And Poverty's unconquerable bar, In life's low vale remote has pined alone, Then dropt into the grave, unpitied and unknown! II. And yet, the languor of inglorious days Not equally oppressive is to all. Him, who ne'er listened to the voice of praise, The silence of neglect can ne'er appal. There are, who, deaf to mad Ambition's call, Would shrink to hear th' obstreperous trump of Fame; Supremely blest, if to their portion fall Health, competence, and peace. Nor higher aim Had He, whose simple tale these artless lines proclaim. III. This sapient age disclaims all classic lore; Else I should here, in cunning phrase, display, How forth THE MINSTREL fared in days of yore, Right glad of heart, though homely in array; His waving locks and beard all hoary grey: And, from his bending shoulder, decent hung His harp, the sole companion of his way, Which to the whistling wind responsive rung: And ever as he went some merry lay he sung.

  • Handout - Excerpt from Life and Adventures of Nat Love Nat Love Was Born Into Slavery in 1854 in Davidson, Tennessee
    Handout - Excerpt from Life and Adventures of Nat Love Nat Love was born into slavery in 1854 in Davidson, Tennessee. After the Civil War, he was released from slavery and worked on a family farm before moving to Dodge City, Kansas, to become a cowboy. Love’s time driving cattle made him into a folk legend, and he became known as “Deadwood Dick.” The following excerpt comes from Chapter 6 of Love’s memoir, entitled Life and Adventures of Nat Love. We were compelled to finish our journey home almost on foot, as there were only six horses left to fourteen of us. Our friend and companion who was shot in the fight, we buried on the plains, wrapped in his blanket with stones piled over his grave. After this engagement with the Indians I seemed to lose all sense as to what fear was and thereafter during my whole life on the range I never experienced the least feeling of fear, no matter how trying the ordeal or how desperate my position. The home ranch was located on the Palo Duro river in the western part of the Pan Handle, Texas, which we reached in the latter part of May, it taking us considerably over a month Nat Love to make the return journey home from Dodge City. I remained in the employ of the Duval outfit for three years, making regular trips to Dodge City every season and to many other places in the surrounding states with herds of horses and cattle for market and to be delivered to other ranch owners all over Texas, Wyoming and the Dakotas.

    NEWSLETTER Idea Exchange Brings Together Veterans and April - June 2010 New Representatives from State Centers By Guy Lamolinara The axiom that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts was in evidence on June 28-29, when the State Centers for the Book came together in Washington for their annual Idea Exchange meeting. Many longtime faces were present and several new ones joined the fold of enthu- siastic promoters of books and reading. “This is always an exciting time for the Library of Congress and Center for the Book staff,” John Y. Cole, director of the national Center for the Book in Washington. Cole said he was also “excited” to take meeting attendees later in the day to the Jefferson Building for a visit to the Young Readers Center, which recently doubled in size in April. (The YRC officially opened The Center for the Book’s last October. See Center for the Book Newsletter September-December 2009.) networks of state centers and reading promotion part- Following self-introductions from those assembled, the group heard from Charles ners extend the reach of the Trueheart, director of the Center for the Book’s new reading promotion partner, national center far beyond the American Library in Paris, which is celebrating its 90th year.
