They began their existence as everyday objects, but in the hands of award-winning historian Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, fourteen domestic items from preindustrial America–ranging from a linen tablecloth to an unfinished sock–relinquish their stories and offer profound insights into our history. In an age when even meals are rarely made from scratch, homespun easily acquires the glow of nostalgia. The objects Ulrich investigates unravel those simplified illusions, revealing important clues to the culture and people who made them. Ulrich uses an Indian basket to explore the uneasy coexistence of native and colonial Americans. A piece of silk embroidery reveals racial and class distinctions, and two old spinning wheels illuminate the connections between colonial cloth-making and war. Pulling these divergent threads together, Ulrich demonstrates how early Americans made, used, sold, and saved textiles in order to assert their identities, shape relationships, and create history.

Large Print EditionThis book is presented as an evidence of appreciation and as a token of regard to the history-making women of our race. One chief object of these introductory sentences is to secure for this book the interest of our youth that they may have instructive light on the struggles endured and the obstacles overcome by our pioneer women.It has been prepared with the hope that they will read it and derive fresh strength and courage from its records to stimulate and cause them to cleave more tenaciously to the truth and to battle more heroically for the right.The characters and facts herein set forth are veritable history. In presenting this volume to the public, it is proper to remark that it has been prepared from a settled conviction that something of the kind is needed. It is our anxious desire to preserve for future reference an account of these women, their life and character and what they accomplished under the most trying and adverse circumstances. . . .

If flat-pack furniture and expensive designer pieces aren’t really your thing, and you’d rather make your own cushion cover than buy it, then Homespun Style is for you. Showcasing inspiring homes around the world, the book reflects our growing passion for crafting, stitching, and painting. These are homes packed with personality and interest, full of homemade pieces, restored junk-store or yard-sale finds and one-off treasures. Interiors stylist Selina Lake and writer Joanna Simmons will show you how this homey, crafty look has been given a modern twist with vivid colors, tactile fabrics, and bold combinations. The book begins with the Themes, from the basics of modern craft to making color and pattern work. It also focuses on imaginative ways to recycle and reuse, from transforming furniture with a lick of paint to finding inspired new uses for everyday items. Next, Details looks at textiles, furniture, and display, while the third section, Spaces, shows how the style works beautifully in living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms, children’s rooms, workrooms, and even out of doors.

A tiny poppy seed is dropped on to dry ground where it will not be able to grow. Carried by the wind to a flourishing garden, in due time it thrives, sprouts, and grows into a beautiful red blossom, completing a rainbow of floral colors. A lovely analogy of interracial adoption.
