Series Description:

From the Series:

Articles and addresses by Howard, manuscript, typescript. Most, though once bound, are now loose though their volumes designation is preserved, others (mostly containing clippings and designated "Miscellaneous") are still in their bound state. An incomplete index is available (M91.9) for use in Special Collections. The indexes and rough subject groupings were prepared by Howard or his staff. Loose: v.1, "Biographical"; v.2, "Wars and Campaigns"; v.3, "Indians" and "Military"; v.4 and 5 (numbered consecutively with v.5 starting at no. 31), "Religion and Miscellaneous"; v.6, "Civil War" and "Children's Stories"; v.7, "Miscellaneous" to v.11 are largely made up of unrelated items covering the Civil War, religion, the military, history, Native Americans, biographical subjects, education, politics, etc. Bound: roughly divided by subject, including the Civil War, Indian campaigns, personal reminiscences and miscellaneous. Volume 11 is followed by unnumbered series. (See the container list for a volume by volume breakdown.)

Acknowledgment of non-neutrality

The George J. Mitchell Department of Special Collections & Archives, like all archives and special collections libraries, is the creation of human beings who have collected, organized, and described things in ways that reflect personal, cultural, societal, and institutional biases. Although we strive to preserve and present collections in a manner that is respectful to the individuals and communities who create, use, and are represented in the collections, we acknowledge that our systems are neither neutral nor perfect. We encourage you to let us know if you encounter materials, descriptive language, or practices that are offensive or harmful, particularly those for which inadequate context or warning is offered. We are committed to modifying and updating our descriptive practices to use respectful and inclusive terminology and appreciate your help in this work. We look forward to supporting you in your research and learning together.
