Household Conveniences and How to Make Them
Globe Pequot Press / The Lyons Press 09/01/2001 1-58574-374-7 paperback 240 pages, 4 1/2 x 7 1/4, illustrations
This complete guide, first published in 1884, presents over a hundred devices whose aim was to "lighten the labor and 'save steps' for overworked house keepers" both inside and outside the home. Written at a time when a whole range of nonelectrical household mechanisms were first becoming widespread, Household Conveniences offers an amazing picture of everyday home life in the late nineteenth century. Perhaps even more amazing though, is how relevant and useful many of these devices continue to be today. With chapters on the kitchen, the cellar, and the sitting room, among others, the reader is introduced to such procedures as canning fruit and vegetables, easy handwashing of clothes, and the making of soap, as well as to such quirky tools as the foot scraper and the clothesline elevator. A refreshingly old-fashioned alternative guide to our modern era of mass production, Household Conveniences will prove an edifying read for history buffs or those who want to put this knowledge to practical use.

CD: Les Combattants Francais De La Guerre Americaine, 1778-1783: Listes etablies d'apres les documents authentiques deposes aux Archives Nationales et aux Archives du Ministere de la Guerre
0788443208 (1905), 2006, CD, Graphic Images, Searchable, Adobe Acrobat, v6, PC and Mac, 467 pp
The National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution was created to "perpetuate the memory of the men who, by their services or sacrifices during the war of the American Revolution, have achieved the work of independence..." as well as other lofty principles. Mr. Paul Wentworth Linebarger desired to create sections of this society in France. In order to do so, it was necessary to reconstitute the lists of the French soldiers and sailors who took part in the war for American independence. A commission was created to search the archives in France, the national archives and the archives of the ministry of war and recreate these lists. This volume, written primarily in French with some English translations, presents these lists as well as historical background into the relationship between France and America during this time period. A fullname index provides easy access to individual names.

Architecture and Rural Life in Central Delaware, 1700-1900
University of Tennessee Press 1987, 2000 0-87049-632-8 paperback / softcover 296 pages, Illustrations
About Author
Bernard L. Herman teaches at the University of Delaware, where is a professor of art history and senior research fellow at the Center for Historic Architecture and Design. Among his many publications are Everyday Architecture of the Mid-Atlantic: Looking at Buildings and Landscapes (co-author with Gabrielle M. Lanier) and Historical Architectural and the Study of American Culture (co-editor with Lu Ann De Cunzo).
Reviews & Awards
"A pioneering account of mid-Atlantic folk architecture and of the nineteenth-century transformation of traditional agriculture. . . . A major study of American vernacular architecture."-Dell Upton, University of California, Berkeley
"Bernard L. Herman has provided us with a model study in the interdisciplinary interpretation of a common landscape."-Robert Blair St. George, Journal of American Folklore
"An impressive study that adds an important dimension to our understanding of the built environment."-Clifford E. Clark Jr., American Historical Review
"A wide range of reader expectations will be met by this book. Herman provides a focused community study as well as an interpretation of vernacular architecture in the Mid-Atlantic region."-John Michael Vlach, Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians
"Scholars will be impressed by Herman's ability to marshal different kinds of evidence to buttress his contention that architecture reveals not just how people materially ordered their lives but helped 'to create and maintain order, to project images of self and community, and to control meaning in social discourse."'-Choice

Family Lore Game
FamilyLore
Members of a family -- people who have shared histories -- play FamilyLore. The FamilyLore Board Game is a fun way for family members and friends to learn about their family history, genealogy, ancestors, and tradition. Great for gifts and family reunions, FamilyLore can be personalized and customized for your family.
Three to ten family members can play. If young players have not yet learned to read, others can read the questions for them.
FamilyLore is for players to have a good time and to recall family stories. The game gets moving with 240 "generic" Story Cards. Card catagories include: Food, Wheels, Recreation, Schools, Celebrations, Consequences, Names, Friends, Family Rules, Jobs, Birth Stories, Gifts, Homes, Vacations, Traditions, Relatives, Pets, Holidays, Religion, and Ancesters.
In time, your family creates personalized Story Cards that make the game unique for each family. The fun increases as the cards are added.

FAMILYLORE TRANSCENDS THE BOARD GAME EXPERIENCE
AND TAKES FAMILIES BACK TO THEIR ROOTS
Perfect for a Reunion and a Timeless Holiday Gift,
FamilyLore Encourages Family Bonding While Teaching Families About Themselves and Their Heritage
New York (November 2003) - Everyone knows families who take their board games too seriously, often berating each other when someone doesn't know the answer to a game-clinching question. But rather than competing with relatives, FamilyLore, a new board game that centers around the players' family history, genealogy, ancestors and traditions, encourages families to bond and share stories together ... so every player is a winner.
"Everyone has stories to tell about their lives and families and this game provides the motivation, structure and setting that turns them loose," says FamilyLore creator, Bob McClure. "FamilyLore brings people together and unites generations as players tell their own stories and recount their history. And as our definition of the family unit changes and people seek new ways to connect and return to their roots, this game brings all types of people together - from nuclear and alternative families to multi-ethnic households and family friends - around facts, events and values that are important to them."
Spawned from McClure's tradition of making homemade Christmas gifts for his family, FamilyLore consists of a game board and questions that fall into 20 categories covering topics from ancestors and family rituals to birth stories and pets. Half of the questions are generic Story Cards and the other half are to be personalized by family members. As families play, they can write their own questions, with the eventual goal of replacing the generic question cards with customized Story Cards, making the game unique to each family. Players can even customize game pieces with pictures of their family members.
"Ultimately, the game can become completely customized for each family that plays," says McClure. "And it's cross-generational so young and old alike will enjoy playing and take something different away from the experience."
In addition to the question cards, Serendipity Cards must be picked up if the player lands on one of the four corners of the board, and then that player is directed to advance or move back a few spaces. Every time a players complete a trip around the board they are awarded a Round-the-Board chip, and the player who receives the most chips wins. But McClure maintains, "the game isn't about winning or losing."
"FamilyLore is really about sharing stories. It encourages players to help each other, remind others of good anecdotes, jokes or long-forgotten facts," says McClure.
Three to 10 family members and their friends can play and even young children can participate - others can read the questions for them and easier questions can be selected if necessary. Players choose a matriarch or patriarch - the player who knows the most about the family - to judge the accuracy of the answers and decide whether an answer deserves the maximum or minimum amount of points allocated for the question.
Reunions Magazine editor, Edith Wagner, sees the value of incorporating a game such as FamilyLore into a family reunion. "It's a way to foster interaction and have fun while learning about family," says Wagner. In fact, according to familyreunions.com, a Web site resource for family reunion planning, playing games is the most common activity at reunions. And with the recent trend toward reuniting with family and old high school classmates, what better way to break the ice and get people talking than with FamilyLore. It's also a great gift for the holidays, anniversaries, weddings and birthdays.
