Extractions: Historiography How American history used to be written. This is a chapter from George Bancroft, History of the United States of America from the Discovery of the Continent (New York: 1886), vol. 4, chapter 9. It's patriotic in a way that no historian would write today. Is it good history? Not really. But it's rousing stuff, and I like it.

Extractions: An Outline of American History Ch 4 This dramatic photograph was taken on June 13, 1948, at Yankee Stadium (the house that Ruth built). It was the 25th anniversary of the stadium and the day the Babe's number was retired. Ruth, thin and frail as a result of a long illness, emerged from the dugout into "the caldron of sound he must have known better than any other man." Everyone knew then, as he must have known himself, that The Babe had worn his old uniform for the last time. He died only two months later on August 16, 1948. The famed number 3 will never again be worn by a Yankee player. The Babe Bows Out won a Pulitzer Prize for photographer Nat Fein . This magnificent photograph is featured in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and the Smithsonian Institute Back to Main Page for this Document Visit Our Other Sites African Americans American Revolution American Indians Bill of Rights ...
