Responsibility: by William Wyckoff.

ISBN: 0300041543

Author: Wyckoff, William.

Place of Publication: New Haven

Publisher: Yale University Press

Date of Publication: 1988.

Physical Description: xiv, 239 p. ill. 24 cm.

Contents: Chapters: The developer's frontier : background and setting - The township surveys of 1797-1799 - Opening the purchase - Settlement policy on the developer's frontier - Commercial policy on the developer's frontier - Settlers on the developer's frontier - The changing frontier landscape - A legacy on the landscape.

Summary: "This book tells how one nineteenth-century group of developers, the Holland Land Company, promoted and organized a settlement of vast wilderness tracts in western New York state. Wyckoff shows that the experience of eastern developers was distinctive from that of other frontier settlers; unlike the isolated pioneer of Frederick Jackson Turner's frontier model or the land speculator in search of quick profits that other historians have described, eastern frontier developers fostered long-term settlement and regional growth by means of carefully formulated and comprehensive plans. Wyckoff discusses how these developers designed surveys, village plats, roads, urban centers, and services to attract desirable settlers..." [book jacket]

Summary: Lewis Miller was an artist in York, PA. He made sketches of 22 Hessian soldiers who fought for the British during the American revolution and stayed in the York area after its conclusion. The author's book is based on those Hessians. In the introduction, the author states, "The purpose of this paper is to consider the individual soldiers, their families,their lives, and their involvement in the York community in which they settled. What happened to these men after the Revolution ? Why did they choose the communities in which they settled. Were they accepted by the Americans ? Did they experience financial success ? What was the nature of their family life ? Did their families suffer the stigma of having a 'Hessian' patriarch."
