The History of Mary I, Queen of England
At a time when prejudiced historical verdicts are being largely revised, and when it is universally admitted that history must be studied on broader and more discriminating lines than heretofore, the restatement of the case for our first Queen Regnant scarcely needs an apology. Two books, one The Privy Purse Expenses of the Princess Mary, with an Introductory Memoir by Sir Frederick Madden, some time Keeper of the Manuscripts in the British Museum, and the other, The Life of Jane Dormer, Duchess of Feria, edited by the Rev. Joseph Stevenson, from the original manuscript in the possession of Lord Dormer, first revealed Queen Mary to me as an attractive and sympathetic personality. Subsequent ...
The She-King (The Consecrated Life of Elizabeth I of England)
"SHE only was a KING, and knew how to govern. How to support the dignity of her crown, and the repose and weal of her subjects, required the course she had taken": such was the tribute of Henry IV, King of France, to Elizabeth I, Queen of England. This essay by Jacqueline Q. Louison is the second edition of "The She-King". It highlights a consecrated life to "duty". It establishes a subtle distinction between overpraise and discredit.

New England Marriages Prior to 1700
This work, compiled over a period of thirty years from about 2,000 books and manuscripts, is a comprehensive listing of the 37,000 married couples who lived in New England between 1620 and 1700. Listed are the names of virtually every married couple living in New England before 1700, their marriage date or the birth year of a first child, the maiden names of 70% of the wives, the birth and death years of both partners, mention of earlier or later marriages, the residences of every couple and an index of names. The provision of the maiden names make it possible to identify the husbands of sisters, daughters, and many granddaughters of immigrants, and of immigrant sisters or kinswomen.
Road Trip
This collection of poetry follows my life as I journey from the middle 1950s to the present. The underlying motif is transformation--in the world and me, first as a child on family road trips through the South, so long ago that they typically linger as childish recollection with a touch of magic, a testament to resilience and memory. Later poems are about me as a young adult who traveled through the turbulent 60s and 70s. Now as a millennial elder I can reflect on how each moment, each breath was an act of history-making, unbeknownst to me at the time, while I was a historical agent, whether as activist, artist, parent, lover, teacher, or simply an observer. Now that I near the end of the journey I can reflect on how change and agency shaped society and my experience and how I changed the world because of it.
The Rosetta Stone
The Rosetta Stone is one of the most popular artefacts in the British Museum. Containing a decree written in Greek, Demotic and hieroglyphics, it proved to be the key to deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics. This concise study traces the history of `the most famous piece of rock in the world' to become a modern icon and tells the story of the race to use it to decipher Egypt's ancient script by Jean-François Champollion and Thomas Young. Also includes a translation of the text.
