American Old West

The Era of the ?Common Man? The Jacksonian Period lived up to its characteristics of being the era of the ?common man.? Andrew Jackson allowed the common man an equal chance achieving success through his economic development, political development, and reform movements. During the era of the ?common man? the common man was the the middle class white male. President Andrew Jackson was the first American to come from humble beginnings and to become the President, this personified the idea of the self-made man. Andrew Jackson also personified the common man because he had been born to a family not of means. Both of Jackson?s parents died when he was young and he fended for himself then worked his way into the military then later became the first president not born from wealth.?

Jilly Empey 4/22/12 English/Ethics Rench Animal Farm Alternate Ending The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which. Life on the farm continued to be laborious and food rations were dwindling. The smell of cooking barley often wafted out through the windows of the farm house, and at night one could hear the obnoxious singing and dancing coming from the drunken pigs. Now, many of the animals were well past the set retiring age, including Clover, Jessie, and Bluebell. They often complained of sore feet and whatnot to the other animals, and subtly hinted their ages now and then to the pigs.

Chapter 11 Technology, Culture, and Everyday Life (1840-1860) Technology and Economic Growth ? Westward movement started to increase with John Deere?s steel tip plow that halved the labor to clear acres to till, making the hard soil better for farming. ? Wheat became as vital to the west as cotton to the south. ? Cyrus McCormick?s mechanical reaper harvested grain seven times faster and with half the labor required, further making wheat great for the west. This invention would also give an edge to the north in the war to come. ? Eli Whitney formulated a plan to manufacture muskets using interchangeable parts and unskilled labor, becoming a widely used method, and by 1851, Europeans had started to refer to manufacture by interchangeable parts as the ?American System.?
