Book Description
Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of Littleton: Its Rise and Development; The Men Who Made and Are Making Its History Those primeval necessities, a grist mill and saw mill, were first located in 1787-8 by Jonathan Eastman, on Ran kin's brook, near the present site of the saw mill and grist mill at Patten ville. They were soon purchased by James Rankin, a thrifty Scotchman, and later successfully operated nearly half a century by his son, Gen. David Rankin. The second saw mill was lo cated at North Littleton, and. The third near the present mill of the Littleton Lumber Co. The second grist mill, and the one which has been the main reliance of the town for almost a cen tury, was built by Solomon Mann, in 1799. It has been renovated and re paired until very little is left of the original mill, and is now operated by James Brown.

Regional Fictions
Author: Stephanie Foote
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 0299171132
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Out of many, one—e pluribus unum—is the motto of the American nation, and it sums up neatly the paradox that Stephanie Foote so deftly identifies in Regional Fictions. Regionalism, the genre that ostensibly challenges or offers an alternative to nationalism, in fact characterizes and perhaps even defines the American sense of nationhood. In particular, Foote argues that the colorful local characters, dialects, and accents that marked regionalist novels and short stories of the late nineteenth century were key to the genre’s conversion of seemingly dangerous political differences—such as those posed by disaffected Midwestern farmers or recalcitrant foreign nationals—into appealing cultural differences. She asserts that many of the most treasured beliefs about the value of local identities still held in the United States today are traceable to the discourses of this regional fiction, and she illustrates her contentions with insightful examinations of the work of Sarah Orne Jewett, Hamlin Garland, Gertrude Atherton, George Washington Cable, Jacob Riis, and others. Broadening the definitions of regional writing and its imaginative territory, Regional Fictions moves beyond literary criticism to comment on the ideology of national, local, ethnic, and racial identity.
