Singing for Freedom


Book Description

divdivIn the two decades prior to the Civil War, the Hutchinson Family Singers of New Hampshire became America’s most popular musical act. Out of a Baptist revival upbringing, John, Asa, Judson, and Abby Hutchinson transformed themselves in the 1840s into national icons, taking up the reform issues of their age and singing out especially for temperance and antislavery reform. This engaging book is the first to tell the full story of the Hutchinsons, how they contributed to the transformation of American culture, and how they originated the marketable American protest song. /DIVdivThrough concerts, writings, sheet music publications, and books of lyrics, the Hutchinson Family Singers established a new space for civic action, a place at the intersection of culture, reform, religion, and politics. The book documents the Hutchinsons’ impact on abolition and other reform projects and offers an original conception of the rising importance of popular culture in antebellum America./DIV/DIV

Hutchinson Family Letter Books


Book Description

Two letter books containing accounts of Thomas Hutchinson (1740-1811) dating from 1760 to 1765; and accounts and manuscript copies of letters written by Thomas Hutchinson, Jr. (1772-1837) while he was practicing as a barrister in England between 1804 and 1819. The earlier volume includes 36 leaves of accounts written by the elder Thomas, with the remainder of the volume in the hand of the younger. Both business and family correspondence is included. The volume is also occasionally annotated by Peter Orlando Hutchinson (1810-1897), who published a collection of family papers in 1880. Confusingly, the front cover of the second, larger volume has manuscript title "Letter Book. October 1770" but there is no extant content from that date. The entries in both volumes are written from both covers towards the center, the front side with entries beginning. There is considerable overlap in the date range of entries.
