The WPA Guide to Ohio by Federal Writers' Project Pdf

During the 1930s in the United States, the Works Progress Administration developed the Federal Writers’ Project to support writers and artists while making a national effort to document the country’s shared history and culture. The American Guide series consists of individual guides to each of the states. Little-known authors—many of whom would later become celebrated literary figures—were commissioned to write these important books. John Steinbeck, Saul Bellow, Zora Neale Hurston, and Ralph Ellison are among the more than 6,000 writers, editors, historians, and researchers who documented this celebration of local histories. Photographs, drawings, driving tours, detailed descriptions of towns, and rich cultural details exhibit each state’s unique flavor. For a reader interested in small town life in the early 20th century, the WPA Guide to Ohio is an excellent resource. A series of photographs by Ben Shahn for the Farm Security Administration is well complemented with 17 selective essays about the political, industrial, and cultural life in the Buckeye State. The essay on the economy provides interesting information on the labor movement in Ohio.

A Literary Tour Guide to the United States by Rita Stein Pdf

This unusual guide will take the tourist or the armchair traveler to literary landmarks throughout the South and Southwest. The great tradition of Southern literature comes alive in the homes of writers like Sidney Lanier, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Kate Chopin, and William Faulkner. Included are many early American authors like Captain John Smith and William Byrd of Virginia, Davy Crockett of Tennessee, and Edgar Allen Poe, as well as the major figures of twentieth-century writing, like Flannery O'Connor, Thomas Wolfe, and Ernest Hemingway. The rich and colorful writing of the Southwest is also fully covered--from Zane Grey's hunting lodge in Arizona and the locales of the works of J. Frank Dobie to the mystical landscape of New Mexico that inspired Willa Cather and D.H. Lawrence. Unexpected and offbeat places are also described: St. Simons Island, Georgia, where Fanny Kemble wrote a fascinating journal; the Rugby Restoration in Tennessee; Fort Gibson, Oklahoma, from where Washington Irving set off on a trip across the prairie; the settings of writings about the Indians of the Southwest. Here is an indispensable guidebook for the literary traveler that's also a handy desk reference for students.--Jacket flap.
