Excerpt from Documentary History of the State of Maine, Vol. 6 In looking over the proofs of this volume, as it is about to be published, it strikes me as not impossible that some may question the wisdom of printing the numerous petitions relative to land grants which it contains, because of the limited number of persons to whom they appeal. I wish to say in reply, should such a question arise, that I have found such material of the greatest value to persons in locating residence and determining dates in family history. I have had cases myself where one of these documents would have been worth much more to me than the price of this volume, hence I have printed them in the belief that among the limited number of early Maine documents in existence they may not prove valueless. The next volume, however, will probably comprise material of more general interest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Documentary History of the State of Maine, Vol. 17 O again resume the publication of the Documentary History of Maine, though a somewhat exacting task de manding time which I cannot well spare, is a great satisfaction, as I can see a prospect of being able to finish the work to which I set my hand many years ago. This volume, as it contains a large portion of the account of the grave disaster which befell the State in the mismanaged Penobscot Expedition, will, I believe, be welcomed by students of Maine history.

Since its original landmark publication in 1980, A People's History of the United States has been chronicling American history from the bottom up, throwing out the official version of history taught in schools -- with its emphasis on great men in high places -- to focus on the street, the home, and the, workplace. Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of -- and in the words of -- America's women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, the working poor, and immigrant laborers. As historian Howard Zinn shows, many of our country's greatest battles -- the fights for a fair wage, an eight-hour workday, child-labor laws, health and safety standards, universal suffrage, women's rights, racial equality -- were carried out at the grassroots level, against bloody resistance. Covering Christopher Columbus's arrival through President Clinton's first term, A People's History of the United States, which was nominated for the American Book Award in 1981, features insightful analysis of the most important events in our history. Revised, updated, and featuring a new after, word by the author, this special twentieth anniversary edition continues Zinn's important contribution to a complete and balanced understanding of American history.
Excerpt from Documentary History of the State of Maine, Vol. 11: Containing the Baxter Manuscripts Were it not that a serious error was made by giving the documentary publications of the Maine Historical Society the title given to the papers read at its meetings, viz: "Collections of the Maine Historical Society," with the addition of "Second Series," I could commence a new series with this volume, but I cannot call it a third series, for the Society is printing a third series under the same title of "Collections;" in fact, it has already printed another second series under the same title. I therefore think it best to continue future volumes of the "Documentary History" under the misleading title of "Second Series" to avoid further complications.

Slavery Religion and Regime challenged us to question the basis of a society founded on freedom for the elite and the subjugation and enslavement of natives and imported victims of slavery and slave-trading. The purpose of this book is to establish a critical theological interpretation of the interplay among the significant political, economic, and religious expressions of modernity in the founding of industrial societies then and today. The elite and justice for all while it heralds individualism, materialism, conceived in violence. The dehumanization process along with the killing of natives is a history that extends up to the present day,
