DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Sacred Harp, a tunebook that first appeared in 1844, has stood as a model of early American musical culture for most of this century. Tunebooks such as this, printed in shape notes for public singing and singing schools, followed the New England tradition of singing hymns and Psalms from printed music. Nineteeth-century Americans were inundated by such books, but only the popularity of The Sacred Harp has endured throughout the twentieth century. With this tunebook as his focus, John Bealle surveys definitive moments in American musical history, from the lively singing schools of the New England Puritans to the dramatic theological crises that split New England Congregationalism, from the rise of the genteel urban mainstream in frontier Cincinnati to the bold "New South" movement that sought to transform the southern economy, from the nostalgic culture-writing era of the Great Depression to the post-World War II folksong revival. Although Bealle finds that much has changed in the last century, the custodians of the tradition of Sacred Harp singing have kept it alive and accessible in an increasingly diverse cultural marketplace. Public Worship, Private Faith is a thorough and readable analysis of the historical, social, musical, theological, and textual factors that have contributed to the endurance of Sacred Harp singing.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"For visitors to the Martin's Cove historic site in Wyoming, Patience Loader has become an icon of the disastrous winter entrapment of the Martin and Willie handcart companies. She left one of the most important records of those events. However, there is much else of interest in her autobiography. In fact, it is a bit unusual that someone with her social background and education would have left such an informative and engaging record of her life." "The daughter of an English gardener, Patience Loader became a boarding house servant, domestic maid, and seamstress. Her memoir includes a rich account of her life in and near London. Converted to Mormonism, she shipped with her parents to America. They joined the ill-fated company led by Edward Martin, which because of poor planning and a late start west, was caught inadequately prepared by severe high plains snowstorms in October and November 1856. The combined fatalities of the Martin and Willie companies made this the worst disaster in the history of overland travel. Patience's father, James Loader, was one of those who died." "Following her rescue to the Mormon settlements on the Wasatch Front, Patience Loader moved south to Utah Valley. There she met, and took the unusual step for a Mormon of marrying, a soldier, John Rozsa, who was stationed at Camp Floyd, northwest of Utah Lake. The troops there had made up the Utah Expedition, sent to ensure federal authority over the Mormons. Rozsa was a Hungarian immigrant and, according to Patience, a secret Mormon convert. When the Utah troops were recalled for the Civil War, Patience accompanied her husband, as an army laundress, to Washington, D.C. There she ran a boarding house and experienced some of the turmoil of life in the wartime capital while Rozsa served the Union both at a desk and in battle. After the war, he died at Fort Leavenworth of consumption, and Patience returned alone to Utah, where she found employment as a cook at a mining camp in American Fork Canyon. Her autobiography ends in 1872, but Patience remarried and had a relatively peaceful life till her death in 1922."--BOOK JACKET.
