Inhaltsangabe

Step into the meeting room of a Pennsylvania historical society in 1910 and watch history examine itself. Real history happens from within. Papers Read Before The Lancaster County Historical Society, February 4, 1910, gathers a set of thoughtful local history essays in which early twentieth-century researchers lay bare their sources, methods and doubts. Centred on Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and steeped in Pennsylvania Dutch heritage, these proceedings form a rich primary source collection for anyone interested in early 1900s America and American regional history. As a study of historiography in miniature, the volume reveals how community historians approached history research methods long before modern academic frameworks took hold, making it an illuminating academic history reference as well as a practical genealogy research resource grounded in authentic local records and memory. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Ideal for readers who enjoy uncovering Pennsylvania local history from original voices, and for classic-literature collectors seeking a carefully prepared edition of a rare historical society publication.
