Excerpt from Popular Lectures and Addresses, Vol. 2 of 3 Of the reason why Volume III. appeared before Volume II. nothing need be said here, as it was stated in the Preface to Volume III. The first half of the present volume contains the papers relating to geological subjects referred to in that statement. The remainder of the volume consists of lectures and addresses on various subjects of general physics, given between 1866 and the end of 1893, which have not been included in Vols. I. or III.

Excerpt from Oberlin Thursday Lectures, Addresses and Essays Many of my pupils have asked that I would publish a small book containing such oi my lectures as were con nected with some of the more interesting experiences of my life. This volume is an attempt to comply, in part, with the wish so expressed. Most of these papers had their place in an institution knowntto all Oberlin students as the Thursday Lectfiy'ei'fi'rfiwd ar'e occasional addresses and for the privilege of reprinting'two others in this col lect'ion, I am indebted to the courtesy of Messrs. Hough ton, Miffiin and Company and the Bibliotheca Sacra Company. The obligation is specially acknowledged in the proper place. The lectures are not printed in the order in which they were delivered, but in the chrono logical order of the events described in them. In this way they become, in a measure and indirectly, auto biographical, which my pupils have expressed a desire that they should be. Some of these lectures were deliv ered as long ago as the early eighties, which will explain the occasional incompleteness in the account of men and events. It has been thought best to leave the lectures substantially as they were presented at the time. This book is dedicated to my pupils as a memorial of the.

In recent years, history has been increasingly popularized through television docudramas, history museums, paperback historical novels, grassroots community history projects, and other public representations of historical knowledge. This collection of lively and accessible essays is the first examination of the rapidly growing field called "public history." Based in part on articles written for the Radical History Review, these eighteen original essays take a sometimes irreverent look at how history is presented to the public in such diverse settings as children's books, Colonial Williamsburg, and the Statue of Liberty, Presenting the Past is organized into three areas which consider the role of mass media ("Packaging the Past"), the affects of applied history ("Professionalizing the Past") and the importance of grassroots efforts to shape historical consciousness ("Politicizing the Past"). The first section examines the large-scale production and dissemination of popular history by mass culture. The contributors criticize many of these Hollywood and Madison Avenue productions that promote historical amnesia or affirm dominant values and institutions. In "Professionalizing the Past," the authors show how non-university based professional historians have also affected popular historical consciousness through their work in museums, historic preservation, corporations, and government agencies. Finally, the book considers what has been labeled "people's history"--oral history projects, slide shows, films, and local exhibits--and assesses its attempts to reach such diverse constituents as workers, ethnic groups, women, and gays. Of essential interest to students of history, Presenting the Past also explains to the general reader how Americans have come to view themselves, their ancestors, and their heritage through the influence of mass media, popular culture, and "public history." Author note: Susan Porter Benson is Associate Professor and Chair of History at Bristol Community College in Massachusetts. Stephen Brier is Director of the American Social History Project and Senior Research Scholar at the Graduate Center, City University of New York. Roy Rosenzweig is Associate Professor of History and Director of the Oral History Program at George Mason University in Virginia.

Excerpt from Addresses, Speeches, Lectures, and Letters Upon Various Subjects The Addresses, Speeches, Lectures, etc., etc., which appear in this volume have been selected from many others, and are intended to be preserved in this form, for the use of those who, years hence, may be interested in what is substantially a record of my feelings and views upon important subjects in very interesting periods of our national history. The addresses delivered at Fort Wayne, Ind., in 1861 and 1865 can hardly fail, at any time, to be interesting, as the present the prevailing sentiment of the people of the Northern States at the commencement and the close of the civil war. The letters, which were written in London for the New York Tribune, were copied by a great many newspapers, and very widely circulated and favorably commented upon in all parts of the country. They were written and the Cambridge lectures were delivered when financial and economic questions were engaging public attention - questions that have lost none of their interest - the definite solution of which seems to be far in the future. The Currency. Upon the currency question I have spoken at considerable length, because it was, and still is, a question of supreme importance. A sound circulating medium is the life-blood of commercial nations. In speaking of the currency, I could not fail to express my views upon the legal-tender notes.
