A Historical Study Of The Exploration Of Utah Valley And The Story Of Fort Utah, Ray C. Colton

Theses and Dissertations

The exploration of Utah Valley and the history of Fort Utah is the story of the conquest and colonization of the American frontier. Discovered in the days of Western expansion, the Valley was identified with the principal factors in the development of the Intermountain West. It heard the chant of the gray robed Franciscan priests, became a favorite haunt of the trail blazing fur trapper and trader, was the site of the ancient rendezvous of the Indian, saw the gold seekers trudge wearily on to California, and with the founding of Fort Utah served as the springboard of Southern Utah …

Antiochus Epiphanes., Brougher Petty Maddox

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

While the writer was an undergraduate he spent two Summers in the Panamint mountains above Death Valley, California. Hiking with one of the few old-timers remaining in that region he noticed that "the old desert rat" would stoop occasionally to pick up certain rocks which he would examine closely. Some went into a pouch he carried. They were later crushed and "panned." If they made a "showing" in the gold-pan, the prospector would retrace his steps and arduously search for the parent vein. In similar fashion the writer has ventured upon interesting features in the life and character of the …

An Historical Study Of The Industries Of Allen County, Kansas., Clifton B. Huff

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

There is no romance more thrilling and fascinating than the story of the early settlement of Kansas. Organized as a territory when the content for the extension of slavery was at fever heat, it became the battle field of contending forces. The South determined that it should held as a slave territory; the North was as equally determined that it should represent freedom. The struggle drew the gaze of the people upon "Bleeding Kansas."

Allen County was one of the first thirty-three counties established by the first territorial legislature. Thus the county was one of the pioneers in the early …

Isaiah Thorriton Montgomery His Life And Work, Sister Mary Of Victory Ssf

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis, submitted to Xavier University in partial fulfillment of requirements for a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1933, presents a biographical and historical study of Isaiah Thornton Montgomery (1847–1924), the founder of Mound Bayou, Mississippi, the most prominent all-Black town in the United States. Drawing on memoirs, newspaper accounts, and the Journal of Negro History, the study traces Montgomery's origins as the son of Benjamin T. Montgomery, an educated slave on the Davis plantation in Mississippi, through his founding of Mound Bayou in 1887 on a 30,000-acre land grant secured from the Louisville, New Orleans, and Texas Railway. The …

An Analysis Of The Social Philosophies Of Brigham Young And John Calvin: With Special Reference To Their Similarities As They Were Expressed Through The Utah And Geneva Theocracies, Wesley P. Lloyd

Theses and Dissertations

Brigham Young was an American product of the nineteenth century. John Calvin was a European product of the sixteenth century. Each of these men left definite impressions upon world history. Of the two, Calvin is more widely understood and better known, but we should remember that the element of time was in his favor.

An examination of the lives of these two men indicates definite parallels, and their teachings show many views in common. Both were spiritual as well as temporal leaders, and each succeeded in gaining the interest of the world in his particular time. Just as the attention …

Public Opinion And The Textbooks In History, Agnes Ward

Bachelors’ Theses

Sir Robert Peel called public opinion a great compound of folly, weakness, and prejudice, wrong feeling, right feeling, obstinacy, and newspaper paragraphs. However it is the great force which has been constantly at work through the ages, sometimes helpfully, sometimes harmfully, molding human history. the introduction of the printing press made books, pamphlets, magazines and newspapers a popular medium for its expression. Since the middle of the nineteenth century, when history formally became an integral part of the curriculum of our great public school system, there has been developed a suspicion among individuals and groups that the subject might easily …

The Conception Of History In Tacitus And Livy, Marguerite Teresa Puerner

Bachelors’ Theses

Few writers among the ancients have received more condemnation, more criticism, less whole-heart d praise than Tacitus and Livy, the two most eminent historians of antiquity. By far the greater part of modern criticism is unfavorable to them. Even those who profess to admire them apologize for their faults, excuse them, seek to explain them away, and then very generously admit that, when all has been taken into consideration, their histories are really very fine. But all critics, adverse and favorable alike, are forced to grant that these historians have succeeded in giving us the true picture of Rome, and …
