Download An Architectural History of Carbondale, Illinois Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Maycock has traced the architectural history of Carbondale from its founding in 1852 to just prior to World War II. Like numerous other midwestern towns established along recently constructed railroads, Carbondale emerged essentially because of the newlychartered Illinois Central Railroad. The railroad provided economic stimulus, but the personal involvement and commitment of Carbondale's citizens also proved major factors in the town's architectural development. Architecturally, Carbondale followed the fashions of the times, with some local variations, although like many small towns it was from 10 to 20years behind major metropolitan areas. With the exception of the university buildings, structures in Carbondale were designed and erected not by trained architects but by "local carpenters and owners who had seen buildings elsewhere or read about them in periodicals and architectural pattern books of the period." These buildings "serve as direct reflections of the community's progress at various points in its history." The present study covers 130years and digs into the roots of a typical 19th-century railroad town in Illinois. The book concentrates on the older section of town, that which existed before the "skyrocketing enrollments at Southern Illinois University put unforeseen pressures on the town, causing widespread demolition and alteration of older buildings to accommodate the sudden increase in population." Although Carbondale today is totally different from the settlement laid out by Daniel Brush, the city did spring from the roots Maycock describes. Maycock gives the reader ample opportunity to compare Carbondale then and now. About half of her 138photographs show historic Carbondale, half the contemporary city. She includes a map of early Carbondale to enable the reader to match the city as it was against the Carbondale of today. Included also is a map of rail lines, showing cities and towns along the Illinois Central that came into being for the same reason Carbondale did.

Download The Building of a Department Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
"In the beginning there was chemistry," Dr. Neckers writes--literally, in the school's first curriculum in 1874--and the development of the department of chemistry, nurtured by the dedication of a distinguished faculty, lent distinction to an emerging university. Concentrating on the second fifty years of the university's history, Dr. Neckers's firsthand account of the building of the chemistry department is one of growth and accomplishment. In his forty years in the university, Neckers was an active participant in university affairs, the first president of the faculty senate, and a member of nearly every university committee and council. His observations are both pertinent and acute, and his insights into campus events no doubt will bring about new interpretations of the university's recent history. Written with warmth and affection, Dr. Neckers's chronicle is nevertheless direct and principled, exhibiting his stalwart character and the forthrightness remembered by his former students and colleagues.

Download One More War to Fight Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This book will captivate readers interested in the legacy of the Civil War, the role of military veterans after they return to civilian life, and the fight against racism in America. Steven A. Goldman looks at the contentious post-Civil War era from the perspective of that special breed, Union soldiers who lived by the bayonet and survived to carry on the fight for equality in the decades to come. He explores the root causes of this historic contest, the changing attitudes of northern servicemen with respect to the Civil War’s purpose, and the psychological effect of involvement in what, from hindsight, was an unfinished work in the cause of freedom and equality for all Americans. Relying on unpublished letters and other primary sources, Goldman uses the veterans’ words and actions to depict their steadfast struggle to preserve the memory and understanding of why the war was fought, and to confront the implications of remembrance, commemoration and reconciliation for America's future.
