"A complement to genealogies in the Library of Congress" -t.p. of fifth v.
This revised, expanded version of an article originally published in American Genealogy Magazine, discusses the many theories about the origin of the Black Dutch (including claims that have been dismissed), the term's use as a derogative, and conclusions. Illustrated with rare pictures, In Search of the Black Dutch identifies 154 American families reporting Black Dutch ancestry.
This Book was over a dozen years in the making and represents the most comprehensive and documented history of the Lumbee/Tuscarora of the Greater Lumbee Settlement. It compares and contrasts the mixed tribe Lumbees with other tribes in the State of North Carolina and those in South Carolina and Virginia.
Other Souths collects fifteen innovative essays that place issues of race, class, gender, ethnicity, and sexuality at the center of the narrative of southern history. Using a range of methodologies and approaches, contributing historians provide a fresh perspective to key events and move long-overlooked episodes into prominence. Pippa Holloway edited the volume using a chronological and event-driven framework with which many students and teachers will be familiar. The book covers well-recognized topics in American history: wars, reform efforts, social movements, and political milestones. Cultural topics are considered as well, including the development of consumer capitalism, the history of rock and roll, and the history of sport. The focus and organization of the essays underscore the value of southern history to the larger national narrative. Other Souths reveals the history of what may strike some as a surprisingly dynamic and nuanced region--a region better understood by paying closer and more careful attention to its diversity.

This is a reprint of David Trimble's most popular book, American Origins. Brought back by popular demand. Because David sold all copies of this book years ago, I was unable to obtain one in "like new" condition. This book was created by scanning the pages of someone's used copy. It will contain a few markings and notes but still serves as an excellent Genealogy reference.
