Some say that Martin Van Buren was one of themost remarkable politicians—not only of his time, but in American presidential history. Co-editor of the Martin Van Buren Papers, James M. Bradley writes this new biography of the 8th president of the United States . Van Buren was the first chief executive not born a British citizen, and the first to use the party system to chart his way from tavern-keeper's son to the pinnacle of power. Additionally, he was the principal architect of the party system and one of the founders of the Democratic Party, he came to dominate New York-then the most influential state in the Union-and was instrumental in electing Andrew Jackson president. Van Buren's skills as a political strategist were unparalleled—and was coined the "Little Magician"—winning him a series of high-profile offices: US senator, New York's governor, US secretary of state, US vice president, and finally theWhite House. In his rise to power, Van Buren sought consensus and conciliation, bending to the wishes of slave interests and complicit in the dispossession of America's Indigenous population, two of the darkest chapters in American history. This first full-scale portrait charts Van Buren's ascent from a tavern in the Hudson Valley to the presidency, concluding with his late-career involvement in an antislavery movement. Offering vivid profiles of the day's leading figures including Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, John Calhoun, John Quincy Adams, DeWitt Clinton, and James Polk, Bradley's book depicts the struggle for power in the tumultuous decadesleading up to the Civil War.About the AuthorJames M. Bradley is co-editor of the Martin Van Buren Papers, based at Cumberland University in Lebanon, Tennessee. He is an Adjunct Instructor in the public history program at State University of New York at Albany and was the Senior Project Editor of Encyclopedia of New York City,published by Yale University Press.

DeWitt Clinton was put forward for president in 1812 in unusual circumstances: during the middle of a war, and by a party to which he didn't belong. He came within striking distance of taking out James Madison, the father of the Constitution. But as we upstate New Yorkers know, his real significance is through his vital support for the Erie Canal. To make this project a reality, Clinton often worked closely with scientists and natural philosophers, such as Amos Eaton. Looking at Clinton this way opens us up to a world where politics, the sciences, and the arts were closely linked in early American society. Our guest is David Spanagel, from the Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

词汇提示1.chore 工作事务2.fornite 边疆3.canoes 皮划艇4.troops 部队5.rot 腐烂6.merchants 商人7.vessels 轮船8.peninsula 半岛原文The Welland CanalBefore railways and automobiles became common, transporting goods over long distances was a difficult chore.In early North America, roads were often bad or non- existent.In the winter, snow and cold weather made travel difficult.Frontier farmers had trouble selling their crops because it was hard to get them to the cities.Often rivers and lakes were the best ways to travel.Fur traders carried their furs and other supplies in canoes.But even large canoes were not big enough to hold a shipment of wheat.Rapids and waterfalls meant that goods had to be taken out of the canoe and carried to the next body of calm water.One way to improve water transportation was to build a canal.In New York State, Governor DeWitt Clinton had constructed the Erie Canal from the Niagara River to the Hudson River, soon after the War of 1812.Because relations between the United States and Canada were still not very friendly, this was another reason to build a canal on the Canadian side.Canals could be used to move supplies and troops during wartime.Sometimes the British government would forbid Canadian farmers to sell food to the U.S.A.Without a canal to move their farm produce, crops were sometimes left to rot.A St. Catharines, Ontario, merchant named William Hamilton Merritt thought about all these things in the 1820s.He also thought that flourmills needed a more reliable source of water to operate.St. Catharines is on Twelve-Mile Creek below the Niagara Escarpment.This creek runs towards Lake Ontario.It rises above the Escarpment, which stands from 150 to 300 feet high, then runs towards Lake Ontario.If Merritt could join the Twelve-Mile Creek to one of the rivers, which ran to Lake Erie, the canal would provide transportation and waterpower.The problem was to find a way to move boats up the escarpment.From 1824 to 1829, Merritt and his friends hired laborers to dig away tons of dirt and rock.Nearly all the work was done with shovels, pickaxes, horses and wagons.In places, the ground was soft and landslides occurred.In other places, the men had to dig through solid granite rock.Merritt's main problem, however, was raising the money to pay for the construction.After sinking all the money that he, his family and friends had into the canal, more was needed.Merritt went to Toronto, New York and finally London, England to get the financial support he needed.The problem of getting the boats to climb the escarpment was solved by a series of 35 wooden locks.These carried a ship 327 feet upwards.The ship would enter a lock with a small amount of water.More water would come into the lock, lifting the boat another ten or fifteen feet.Then the ship would move into the next lock, and be lifted up again.Boats going in the opposite direction were lowered instead of lifted.The Welland Canal has been rebuilt three times since the first canal opened in 1829.Now large sea-going and lake vessels cross the Niagara Peninsula from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie.They carry grain, coal, iron ore, oil and many other bulk products.The Welland Canal remains one of the most important commercial waterways in the world.翻译韦兰运河在铁路和汽车普及之前,长途运输货物是一项艰巨的工作。在北美早期,道路往往很糟糕或根本不存在。冬天,雪和寒冷的天气使旅行变得困难。边疆农民很难出售他们的作物,因为很难将它们运到城市。河流和湖泊往往是最好的旅行方式。毛皮商人用独木舟运送毛皮和其他用品。但是,即使是大型独木舟也不够大,无法装载一批小麦。急流和瀑布意味着货物必须从独木舟中取出被带到下一片平静的水域。改善水运的一种方法是修建一条运河。1812年战争后不久,纽约州州长德维特·克林顿(DeWitt Clinton)修建了从尼亚加拉河到哈德逊河的伊利运河。因为美国和加拿大的关系还不太友好,这是在加拿大一侧修建运河的另一个原因。战时,运河可以用来运送物资和军队。有时英国政府会禁止加拿大农民向美国出售粮食。由于没有运河运输他们的农产品,农作物有时会腐烂。安大略省圣凯瑟琳的一位名叫威廉·汉密尔顿·梅里特的商人在19世纪20年代思考了所有这些事情。他还认为面粉厂需要更可靠的水源来运作。圣凯瑟琳位于尼亚加拉悬崖下的12英里小河上。这条小溪流向安大略湖。它从150到300英尺高的悬崖上升起,然后向安大略湖延伸。如果梅里特能够将12英里河与其中一条河流汇合,这条河流将流向伊利湖,运河将提供交通和水力。问题是要找到一种方法将船只移到悬崖上。从1824年到1829年,梅里特和他的朋友们雇佣了工人来挖掘成吨的泥土和岩石。几乎所有的工作都是用铲子、镐、马和马车完成的。在一些地方,地面很软,发生了滑坡。在其他地方,人们不得不挖掘坚硬的花岗岩。然而,梅里特的主要问题是筹集资金来支付建设费用。在将他、家人和朋友所有的钱都投入运河之后,还需要更多的钱。梅里特去了多伦多、纽约,最后去了英国伦敦,以获得他所需要的财政支持。让船只爬上悬崖的问题由一系列35个木闸解决了。这把船送到了327英尺高的地方。船将在少量水的情况下进入船闸。更多的水会流入船闸,使船再上升10或15英尺。然后船将进入下一个船闸,并再次被提升。朝相反方向行驶的船只被降下而不是升起。自1829年第一条运河开通以来,韦兰运河已经重建了三次。现在,大型海上和湖泊船只从安大略湖穿过尼亚加拉半岛,到达伊利湖。他们运输粮食、煤炭、铁矿石、石油和许多其他大宗产品。韦兰运河仍然是世界上最重要的商业水道之一。
Year(s) Discussed: 1812-2016 We often examine the lives and legacies of those select few who win the US presidential elections every four years, but what about their opponents? What might we learn from their unsuccessful campaigns as well as their overall careers? In this episode, I am joined by Peter Shea to discuss his book, In the Arena: A History of American Presidential Hopefuls. In our conversation, we examined candidates ranging from DeWitt Clinton to Michael Dukakis and the legacies of some of the also-rans in the larger scheme of American culture and history as well as considered how losing has the potential to make individuals stronger.

I empathize with those desiring that the name of the 3.1 mile bridge should revert to Tappan Zee; other recommendations would undoubtedly include renaming the structure for a deceased serviceman or woman, the 9/11 attack victims, or a different New York State Governor. (DeWitt Clinton, who facilitated the building of the Erie Canal, often comes up.) But I disagree with all of those.

Historian Barry Moreno discusses Castle Clinton's varied history, from its years as an immigration station to its decades as a performance space. He describes its brief version as an aquarium, and its near destruction to make room for the Battery Tunnel. Originally erected in 1808-1811 as the Southwest Battery for the War of 1812, Castle Clinton was part of the NY Harbor Coastal Fortification system. It was originally located 300 feet offshore and connected to Manhattan via a bridge. In 1817 it was renamed Castle Clinton in honor of DeWitt Clinton, the mayor of New York City, and served as a reception hall for important visitors.It was one of the city's most popular attractions until it closed in 1941, when a vindictive Robert Moses (who had recently been prevented him building the Brooklyn-Battery Bridge), tried to demolish it. Thanks to supporters in the City and Federal Government, the fort became part of the National Park System in 1946 and was saved. The National Park Service restored it in 1986 as the original Castle Clinton.

This leads them to discuss how Hamilton got involved with the military. Jeff then explains Hamilton’s history in law and politics and asks Joyce about his role in opening Columbia University and the Bank of New York. Segment 2Jeff begins by asking Joyce about her tour guide business and how she designs them. He then asks about Hamilton’s relationship with New York’s Jewish community. He goes on to ask how Hamilton became the first Secretary of State. Jeff then explains how New York was America’s capital before Washington, D.C, and why it was chosen initially. Joyce and Jeff discuss Hamilton’s New York associates and friends. They move on to talking about Hamilton’s death and his duel with Aaron Bur. They then discuss what Hamilton’s wife Eliza’s life was like after his death. Jeff moves on to talk about Hamilton’s children and their lives.

Steven talks about how New York became one of the most important cities during early American history.Segment 4Jeff begins by asking Steven about the publication of his book Capital of Capital. Jeff then asks about Hamilton’s friend Robert Fulton who was an inventor and artist. Steven then talks about Jeremiah Thompson who was known as the pioneer of the package ship. Steven talks about how Thompson revolutionized transatlantic commerce. Jeff and Steven then talk about DeWitt Clinton, who was a mayor and governor of New York. Stephen goes through how DeWitt helped get New York’s first canal built, which lead to the city prospering.
Martin Van Buren, nicknamed the Red Fox of Kinderhook and the Little Magician, was the first American president born after American independence, the first raised in a home where English was not the primary language, and the first true political organizer. A political genius, who created the model of the nineteenth-century political machine, Van Buren is sadly consigned to the second or third tier of American presidencies. Jay and Luke push back against his undue relegation in this episode, the first of two covering Van Buren. They discuss his unique cultural background, his rise through the ranks of Jeffersonian politics, his creation of what became known as the Albany Regency, and his controversial efforts on behalf of James Crawford’s unsuccessful candidacy in 1824. That election saw Van Buren cast out of the center of political life with the return of DeWitt Clinton to the New York governorship and John Quincy Adams’s presidency. Yet in four short years, Van Buren managed to organize the Jacksonian resurgence, as well as his own political revival in New York. We end the episode with Van Buren elected governor of New York and called by Jackson to join his cabinet as Secretary of State.

Red Alert is also featured in an exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. The only DJ of this era so honored!He has appeared in over 50 music videos.Red was reared by his maternal grandparents, who were from Antiqua. Red's love for those around-the-way basketball games led him to his high school team at DeWitt Clinton. No doubt this is where he was dubbed the nickname, “RED”; for his red hair and alert response on the court. Red later received a college basketball scholarship. During the last of his high school years, Red hung out at the Saturday night parties thrown by Kool Herc and Coke La Rock at clubs throughout the west Bronx. Red studied the style of music Kool Herc played and the way he blended the vinyl. On Fridays, Red found himself venturing downtown to check out star disco deejays, such as: Grandmaster Flash, Together Brothers, and Pete DJ Jones. It wasn't long before he was jammin' at parties on his own equipment. It was important to be up on what was happening on the New York scene, so Red was now attending legendary parties throughout the Bronx.Red caught Grandmaster Flash at the Back Door and the Dixie Club, Kool DJ A.J. at the Morehouse Center and Afrika Bambaataa at JHS 123. By this time, Red had gathered enough record selection and record spinning insight to teach his cousin DJ Jazzy Jay the basics of the art. Jazzy Jay in turn introduced Red to Bambaataa. Bambaataa taught Red about rock, reggae and new wave music. Learning about the various styles of dance oriented music, Red soon became the deejay for Bambaaata and his Zulu Nation, joining the likes of Afrika Islam, the Soul Sonic Force, Grandmixer DST and the Rock Steady Crew. Through this association, Red began to spin records downtown at such clubs as Negril and Danceteria.While deejaying at the Roxy, he met Barry Mayo, then program director of NY's WRKS 98.7 KISS FM. A man of considerable taste, Mayo hired Red to inaugurate the “Dance Mix Party.” Red remained at 98.7 KISS FM for 11 years, becoming the top DJ at the station. During his tenure at KISS, Red became the first individual to popularize dancehall music at a major radio station! Before you knew it, Red met up with producer Vincent Davis, of the Vintertainment Record label, through DJ Chuck Chillout, to produce Red's First record, “Hip Hop On Wax, Volume 2.” (Part 1 was made by DJ Chuck Chillout of the B-Boys and Part 3 was by DJ Born Supreme Allah).Another record was “He's My DJ (DJ Red Alert Goes Berserk)” which featured Sparky D on vocals and was released on NIA records produced by Spyder D.He also became a member of the Boogie Down Productions, touring the country with KRS One.Since then, Red has done super mixes for compilation albums on Next Plateau Records and Epic Records.Now a seasoned veteran as radio jock, club jock and studio man, Kool DJ Red Alert has established his place as one of the world's premier DJ's. To top it off Red Alert owns a production and management company, Red Alert Productions (RAP). The company garnered a reputation for developing and promoting new talent. RED is responsible for launching the career of such widely acclaimed acts as the Jungle Brothers, Tribe Called Quest, Black Sheep and Queen Latifah to name a few.In addition DJ Red Alert was the first to introduce numerous hit records including “Soul II Soul” by Jazzy B and “Hold On” by the group En Vogue!Red says, “You have to learn how to break a new artist on record by working it in and out with familiar records. People are scared to fall. It's OK to fall. You must learn how to fall and be strong so you can come back. A DJ is like the pied piper.”Since his break on the radio, Red Alert has had the opportunity to expand hip hop's audience as well as break the careers of Boogie Down Productions, Black Sheep, the Jungle Brothers, and A Tribe Called Quest. He has had cameos on countless albums, and has also released various compilation albums.Lately he has undergone some professional changes after leaving his radio show. Well all wait to see what he has in store for us next. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
One of the great challenges faced by a growing, 19th-century New York City was the need for a viable, clean water supply. Before the 1830s, citizens relied on cisterns to collect rainwater, a series of city wells drilling down to underground springs, and the infamously polluted Collect Pond. The solution lay miles north of the city in the Croton River. New York engineers embarked on one of the most ambitious projects in the city's history -- to tame the Croton, funnelling through an aqueduct down to the city, where water would be stored in grand, Egyptian-style reservoirs to serve the city's needs. This is the story of both the old and new Croton Aqueducts, and of the many landmarks that are still with us -- from New York's oldest surviving bridge to a former Bronx racetrack that was turned into a gigantic reservoir. ALSO: A entire town moved on logs, a famous writer's strange musings on Irish laborers, and guest appearances by DeWitt Clinton and Gouverneur Morris (but not the ones you think). www.boweryboyspodcast.com Support the show.
