  • An Exemplary Whig

    Edward Kent and the Whig Disposition in American Politics and Law

    by David M. Gold ...
    Historians have paid surprisingly little attention to state-level political leaders and judges. Edward Kent (1802–77) was both.

  • The Great Tea Party in the Old Northwest: State Constitutional Conventions, 1847-1851

    The Urban South During the Civil War Era

    Edited by Andrew L. Slap, Frank Towers ...
    Series series Historical Studies of Urban America
