Title: Negro in American History
Author: CROMWELL John Wesley CROMWELL HILL Adelaide CROMWELL Adelaide
Seller: Bauman Rare Books (United States)
Description: 1914. Signed. (CROMWELL, Adelaide) CROMWELL, John Wesley. The Negro in American History. Men and Women Eminent in the Evolution of the American of African Descent. Washington: American Negro Academy, 1914. Octavo, original gilt-lettered green cloth. $3200.First edition of Cromwell's paramount African American history that ""broke fresh ground"" in its defining biographies of leaders such as Frederick Douglass and Phillis Wheatley, a major biography of Reconstruction congressman Robert B. Elliot, who crafted a core argument against the 1873 decision in the Slaughter-House Cases, along with accounts of the lives and influence of Henry Highland Garnet, Denmark Vesey, Nat Turner and many more. This important association copy stands within that tradition in its owner signature of Cromwell's granddaughter, historian and scholar Dr. Adelaide Cromwell, co-founder of the African Studies program at Boston University.Born enslaved in 1846, Cromwell became a teacher before enrolling in Howard University's law school. Admitted to the bar in 1874, in 1876 he founded the newspaper, People's Advocate, and became a voice for Black education in all-Black schools, founding the Bethel Literary and Historical Association and playing a vital role in establishing the American Negro Academy. Cromwell's early writings and leadership were quickly seen as crucial, and in 1887 he was profiled in Simmons' Men of Mark alongside Frederick Douglass and Crispus Attucks. Simmons asserted: ""If you ask me for the best English scholar in the United States, I would unhesitatingly refer you to John Wesley Cromwell"" (Smithsonian). Cromwell's Negro in American History, his ""first full-length monograph,"" documents the ""history of African Americans from the slave trade through Reconstruction and its aftermath"" (ANB). Early recognized as a ""very important work,"" it features lengthy biographies of Phillis Wheatley, Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington, as well as figures such as Reconstruction attorney Robert B. Elliott, ""who helped draft legislation to fight the KKK in the South"" (Smithsonian). Negro in American History is especially significant in its attention to slave revolts as ""a constant menace to the safety and security of slavery."" Cromwell saw Denmark Vesey and Nat Turner as folk heroes and ""maintained that before the American Revolution along, approximately 25 insurrections had occurred."" The work of Black historians such as Cromwell ""broke fresh ground by focusing on the slaves' responses to captivity,"" and by evincing pride for a Black past that ""laid the foundation for Black protest"": raising questions and ""themes that did not become popular among historians until the 1960s"" (Smith, Different View of Slavery, 303-4). In his life and writings Cromwell combined ""advocacy for the collective uplift of African Americans with a belief in educational advancement and intellectual achievement. His historical work placed him at the nexus of the pre-professional and professional milieus in African American scholarship"" (ANB). First edition, first printing. With frontispiece and eleven full-page illustrations. This distinctive association copy possesses the owner signature of Adelaide M. Cromwell, the granddaughter of its author, John Wesley Cromwell, and the niece of Dr. Otelia Cromwell, the first African American woman to earn a doctorate from Yale. Following in their footsteps, Dr. Adelaide Cromwell also broke ground in African American history, serving as a distinguished professor at Boston University and pivotal co-founder of its African Studies Programonly the second in the country. In addition to authoring major works on Black history, she also became the first African American appointed Library Commissioner in Massachusetts.Interior quite fresh, expert repair to rear inner hinge and a sopt at top of rear board.

Title: Group of 14 Stereo views of the Long-Abandoned Towns of Ellaville, New Troy and Columbus, Florida, in the Suwanee River Valley, circa 1870
Seller: Michael Brown Rare Books, LLC (United States)
Description: 14 stereo views, mounted on yellow cardstock mounts, no photographer's credit on mount verso, views identified in pencil on versos, in good clean condition. Rare group of stereo views providing visual documentation of the long-vanished Florida towns of Ellaville, Columbus and New Troy, all located near each other along the Suwanee River. The views have light period pencil notations on their versos identifying each view. There are only a handful of images known to survive of Ellaville, especially from its early days. Ellaville, Florida is a ghost town located in the Suwanee River State Park in Suwanee County, Florida. Ellaville was formerly located at the juncture of the Suwanee and Withlacoochee Rivers. Ellaville was founded in 1861 by George Franklin Drew a successful businessman and future governor of Florida. He named the town Ellaville after one of his slaves named Ella. He and Louis Bucki, a Prussian immigrant, built a mill that employed over 500 people and was one of the largest in Florida at the time. The company had 1200 acres near Ellaville and an additional 90,000 acres of timberlands in adjacent areas. Lumberyards and branch offices were established in New York City and Jacksonville. Drew built himself a mansion on the western banks of the Suwanee River. The Florida Railroad built a line to the town providing direct access to markets for the mill. Soon after the town was booming and in its heyday in the early 1870s, when these images were taken, Ellaville had a train station, two schools, two churches, a steamboat dock, masonic lodge, commissary and a sawmill. Drew's company soon expanded into the manufacture of turpentine, and railroad car building. Drew established his own private railroad company. Drew paid his workers with company scrip in the early 1870s. The town had about a thousand residents at its peak. In 1876 George Franklin Drew was elected Governor of Florida. Ellaville began to decline near the turn of the century after its mill burned down in 1898. Although the mill was quickly rebuilt, the number of pine trees had declined. Both rivers flooded and with the onset of the Great Depression, there was no future for the town, the post office was finally abandoned in 1942. The Drew mansion was abandoned, vandalized over the years, it burnt to the ground in the 1970s. The towns of New Troy and Columbus, located along the Suwanee and near Ellaville and "boomed and bust" in similar fashion. The images include: 1. "Drew and Buckis Steam Saw Mill Ellaville Fla." 2. "View of Lumber Train Ellaville Fla." 3. "View of R.R. Bridge at Columbus Fla." 4. "Capt Edwards Store at New Troy" 5. "View of Back Street in Ellaville Fla." 6. "View of Furnace at Drew and Buckis Mill Ellaville Fla." 7. "Steamer Wawenock at Troy on Suwanee River" 8. "View in the Pine Woods Florida" 9. "Sugar Boiling at Geo. F. Drews Ellaville Fla." 10. "View of Humble Log House in Florida" 11. "Little River Spring and Suwanee River in the distance" 12. "Little River Spring and Church on the Hill Suwanee River" 13. "Dr. Hodges Yacht at Hickory Island" 14. "Engine of Drew and Buckis Saw Mill Ellaville Fla." https://abandonedfl.com/the-town-of-ellaville/
