Spy Letters of the American Revolution -- From the Collections of the Clements Library. Michigan Journal of History. Welcome to the official site of the Michigan Journal of History. Founded in 2001, the Journal focuses on publishing thought provoking new pieces that focus on both original research as well as challenges to previous works. The Michigan Journal of History (MJH) is comprised of undergraduate editors at the University of Michigan whose passion for History has drawn them to this biannual publication.

MJH does not focus on one particular type of historical submission. Students with focus areas in all types of History are encouraged to submit; we also encourage students from other disciplines including, but not limited to, history, anthropology, political science, law, international studies, area studies, ethnic studies, and gender and sexuality studies to send in their papers, granted they demonstrate a historical theme. If you are either a current undergraduate or you have graduated within the past semester, MJH encourages you to submit your work for publication consideration. Great Debates. Essays in History. University of Virginia Library > Our Organization > The Electronic Text Center The Electronic Text Center (1992-2007), known to many as “Etext,” served the University community’s teaching and research needs in the areas of humanities text encoding for fifteen years.

Many of the resources once available on Etext are now available via VIRGO, the Library’s online catalog and the primary access point for all U.Va. Library digital texts and images. In the course of migrating thousands of texts from Etext to VIRGO, we determined that certain resources were not eligible for inclusion, most often due to copyright issues. Many of the texts that were not migrated can be found among other university online text collections, Google Books, HathiTrust and Project Gutenberg. We regret any inconvenience this may cause you and we wish you the best with your research. Some pages from the Etext center have been preserved at the Internet Archive. Http--xroads.virginia.edu-~HYPER-DICKENS-dks1. Dickens, Charles Chapter 1 I SHALL never forget the one-fourth serious and three-fourths comical astonishment with which, on the morning of the third of January, eighteen-hundred-and-forty-two, I opened the door of, and put my head into, a "state-room" on board the Britannia steam-packet, twelve hundred tons burden per register, bound for Halifax and Boston, and carrying her Majesty's mails.

That this state-room had been specially engaged for "Charles Dickens, Esquire, and Lady, "was rendered sufficiently clear even to my scared intellect by a very small manuscript, announcing the fact, which was pinned on a very flat quilt, covering a very thin mattress, spread like a surgical plaster on a most inaccessible shelf. We had experienced a pretty smart shock before coming below, which, but that we were the most sanguine people living, might have prepared us for the worst.

And there she is! What have we here? To and fro, to and fro, to and fro again a hundred times! Return to table of contents. Where the West Begins. World History.
