Preserving Historic New England: Preservation, Progressivism, and the Remaking of Memory
Lindgren, James Michael (Professor, Department of History, Professor, Department of History, SUNY Plattsburgh)
Examining the work of New England's Preservation Movement, this study focuses on the complex battle that pitched tradition-bound Yankees not only against immigrants and radicals but against the "fakery" of machined Colonial Revival forms. It explores the meaning of preserved artefacts and sites.
