The complete e-text of The Education of Henry Adams is available on-line from the American Studies Program at the University of Virginia.

Did Pocahontas Save Captain John Smith?
by Stan Birchfield
Did Pocahontas actually save Captain John Smith, or did Smith make up the story in order to gain popularity? Professor J. A. Leo Lemay of the University of Delaware has recently written a book on the subject in which he argues convincingly that the story is true. Lemay is the first scholar to have seriously studied the question in over a hundred years, and due to his thoroughness and the modern conveniences that make research so much easier in our century than in previous ones, I believe that his book may well become the definitive work on the subject. In this essay I will try to summarize Lemay's arguments.
History of the Dispute
It is significant that for two-and-a-half centuries after Pocahontas saved Smith, no scholar seriously questioned the validity of the story. By the mid-nineteenth century Smith was as well known to Americans as any figure from American history and was widely regarded as a hero. True, there were some historians and writers who expressed doubts about the romantic nature of Smith's adventures, but this skepticism was rare amidst a chorus of praise. Then, in 1860 the Boston businessman and historian Charles Deane argued in his edition of Edward Maria Wingfield's "A Discourse of Virginia" that Pocahontas did not save Smith. Deane was the first scholar to question a specific detail and to give reasons for disbelieving it. Encouraged by Deane, Henry Adams followed with a full-scale attack in the lead article of the January 1867 edition of

Executive summary: The Education of Henry Adams The American historian Henry Adams, son of Charles Francis Adams and grandson of John Quincy Adams , was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on the 16th of February 1838. He graduated at Harvard in 1858, and from 1861 to 1868 was private secretary to his father. From 1870 to 1877 he was assistant professor of history at Harvard and from 1870 to 1876 was editor of the North American Review . He is considered to have been the first (in 1874-1876) to conduct historical seminary work in the United States. His great work is his History of the United States (1801 to 1817) (9 vols., 1889-1891), which is incomparably the best work yet published dealing with the administrations of Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Madison . It is particularly notable for its account of the diplomatic relations of the United States during this period, and for its essential impartiality. Adams also published:

Contributing Editor: Earl N. Harbert
Classroom Issues and Strategies
Explain Henry Adams's point of view as an outsider even when he writes about his own life. Note also his allusive, old-fashioned prose style, which is so different from that of (for example) Hemingway . Discuss Adams's lack of dependence on the economic rewards that his writings might bring, and his unusual authorial attitudes. Also important is an extended exploration of the meaning and usefulness of his key symbols. In teaching Henry Adams, especially the entries included in The Heath Anthology , I have enjoyed the largest success when I emphasized the following five themes: 1. Although born into a tradition of elite political, social, and intellectual leadership, Henry Adams yet remained essentially an observer rather than a participant in the robust American life of the 1860- 1912 period. Writing in all literary forms, his point of view is that of an outsidereven when he tells about his own life (as the third-person narration in the Education demonstrates).

An American Novel
[Henry Adams]
New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1880
Chapter I
F The average member of New York society, although not unused to this contemptuous kind of treatment from his leaders, retaliated in his blind, common-sense way. "What does the woman want?" he said. "Is her head turned with the Tulieries and Marlborough House? Does she think herself made for a throne? Why does she not lecture for women's rights? Why not go on the stage? If she cannot be contented like other people, what need is there for abusing us just because she feels herself no taller than we are? What does she expect to get from her sharp tongue? What does she know, any way?" Mrs. Lee certainly knew very little. She had read voraciously and promiscuously one subject after another. Ruskin and Taine had danced merrily through her mind, hand in hand with Darwin and Stuart Mill, Gustave Droz and Algernon Swinburne. She had even laboured over the literature of her own country. She was perhaps, the only woman in New York who knew something of American history. Certainly she could not have repeated the list of Presidents in their order, but she knew that the Constitution divided the goverument into Executive, Legislative, and Judiciary; she was aware that the President, the Speaker, and the Chief Justice were important personages, and instinctively she wondered whether they might not solve her problem; whether they were the shade trees which she saw in her dreams.

RICHARD W. GARNETT

Notre Dame Law School
Minnesota Law Review, Vol. 85, p. 1841, 2000-2001

Abstract:
In several decisions handed down during its 1999 Term, the United States Supreme Court focused on the freedom of expressive association. Generally speaking, expressive association is regarded by courts and commentators as just another form of individual self-expression, and voluntary associations as facilitators for such self-expression.
In this Essay, Professor Garnett suggests that a shift in focus, from individual self-expression-through-association to the expression of voluntary associations themselves. It is suggested that, in several recent decisions ­including Dale, Mitchell, and California Democratic Party - the Court has indicated an appreciation of the role played by mediating institutions in shaping citizens, in transmitting values and loyalties­that is, in educating. In this role, associations are not only vehicles for the messages of individuals, but also speakers themselves. Associations are seen as more than conduits, but as crucial parts of the scaffolding of civil society. And the messages they express are valued not only to the extent they carry the voices of individuals, but also because they compete with the messages of government in the arena of education, broadly understood.

ADAMS, Henry Brooks [1838-1918] American historian
Relationship to me:
ADAMS family ODT Contents: a/k/a SNOW, Francis Compton He was an historian, a political biographer and a philosopher, living in Washington, DC. Son of Charles Francis Adams (1807-86), grandson of John Quincy Adams (1767-1848). Although born into a tradition of elite political, social, and intellectual leadership and activism, Henry Adams remained essentially an observer rather than a participant in the robust American life of the 1860-1912 period. When his wife committed suicide in 1885, Adams commissioned the well-known sculptor, Saint-Gaudens, to create a most unusual work to be placed at her gravesite in Washington, DC. It is a slightly larger than life bronze of a robed woman, seated, with eyes closed, perhaps in meditation. A deeply personal work, it is untitled. There are no markings even to identify who is buried there.
