The World of Colonial America: An Atlantic Handbook offers a
comprehensive and in-depth survey of cutting-edge research into the
communities, cultures, and colonies that comprised colonial
America, with a focus on the processes through which communities
were created, destroyed, and recreated that were at the heart of
the Atlantic experience. With contributions written by leading
scholars from a variety of viewpoints, the book explores key topics
such as -- The Spanish, French, and Dutch Atlantic empires -- The
role of the indigenous people, as imperial allies, trade partners,
and opponents of expansion -- Puritanism, Protestantism,
Catholicism, and the role of religion in colonization -- The
importance of slavery in the development of the colonial economies
-- The evolution of core areas, and their relationship to frontier
zones -- The emergence of the English imperial state as a hegemonic
world power after 1688 -- Regional developments in colonial North
America. Bringing together leading scholars in the field to explain
the latest research on Colonial America and its place in the
Atlantic World, this is an important reference for all advanced
students, researchers, and professionals working in the field of
early American history or the age of empires.
