Fort Hays Studies Series
In reading these columns one should never assume that community life was submerged by important national events such as World War II. Rather community life remained surprisingly normal and one gains the impression that the people Mrs.Rosebrook knew were determined not to allow their everyday life to be disrupted by any catastrophe, including the Dust Bowl storms. Perhaps this was their way of coping.

It is the purpose of this study to trace Hitler's evolving program of using the military to accomplish his political ends.

The Social Views Of Dwight L. Moody And Their Relation To The Workingman Of 1860-1900, Myron Raymond Chartier
Fort Hays Studies Series
This evaluation is complicated for two basic reasons. The amount of subjectivity that enters into one's assessment always plagues any attempt on the part of the historian to be objective; however, it seems that religious phenomenon is even more difficult to evaluate honestly. This writer believes that he has no "axes to grind" in regard to Moody and the workingman. The record of history has been the primary interest.

Kansas Mennonites During World War I, Arlyn John Parish
Kansas Mennonites During World War I, Arlyn John Parish
Fort Hays Studies Series
The story of the Mennonites of Kansas during World War I has never been told. This account should be of interest both as an incident in general Mennonite history and as an episode in the social history of the United States, for it demonstrates many of the problems of incorporating a minority group into the broader society.

The crowning musical achievements of the Renaissance lay chiefly within the realm of vocal music. The masters of the sixteenth century brought to supreme climax the development of Mass and motet, chanson and madrigal; yet the Renaissance also witnessed a flowering of instrumental music, destined ultimately to supplant in importance the older, vocal art.

The work of textual critics are featured to serve as illustrative examples.

The United States And The Independence Of Buenos Aires, Eugene R. Craine
Fort Hays Studies Series
Prior to the era of revolution the people and the government of the United States came into contact chiefly with the border regions of Spain's American empire. Such areas as Florida, Texas, and the Greater Antilles were absorbing the attention of American expansionists. Thus, not only by action but by basic policy, the United Stateswas opposed to contributing to the independence of Buenos Aires.

San Martín: One Hundred Years Of Historiography, Katharine Ferris Nutt
San Martín: One Hundred Years Of Historiography, Katharine Ferris Nutt
Fort Hays Studies Series
It is the opinion of this writer that the answer to the riddle of San Martín may better be sought in his relations with Lord Cochrane than in those with Simon Bolívar and the Quayaquil controversy, an avenue which historians have for years followed without arriving at any satisfactory conclusion. It is this writer's purpose to show that the misunderstandings regarding San Martín's character and his place in history stem from a very logical and comprehensible situation.

Issac Mccoy: His Plan Of And Work For Indian Colonization, Emory J. Lyons

Several books and articles have been written concerning Isaac McCoy, but as far as I am able to find out there has been no book, article, or research paper written on the plan of Indian colonization that originated with McCoy, and his work for the fulfillment of that plan.
Bat Masterson; The Dodge City Years, George G. Thompson
Bat Masterson; The Dodge City Years, George G. Thompson
Fort Hays Studies Series
Kansas has an unusual and a brilliant history. The men who lived within its boundaries when this history was being made, and who helped make it, are becoming older each year; historians and biographers have only a short time in which to secure their stories, which will, otherwise, go with them when they die. With this thought in mind, the author has selected the life of William Barclay Masterson, a colorful figure in the history of Dodge City, Kansas, for preservation.
