Did you know that: - the thirteen colonies which became the USA
were not the most valuable British possessions in America? -
Georgia was not the thirteenth but the fourteenth British colony in
North America? - despite the claims in the Declaration of
Independence, George III was not a tyrant? Information on these
facts, and many many more, can be found in this fascinating and
helpful A-Z guide. Colonial America's key events and personalities
- from the first expedition to Roanoke Island in 1584 to the
conclusion of the War of Independence - are readily accessible in
this invaluable dictionary. Mary K. Geiter and W. A. Speck set the
thirteen colonies which became the United States in an Atlantic
context, dealing not only with the thirteen but also with Britain's
other colonies in North America and the West Indies. The imperial
connection is stressed too with entries on British monarchs and
politicians, admirals and generals, Acts of Parliament and European
wars which impacted on the American colonies. Also featuring a
Select Bibliography and full Chronology to aid learning, this
wide-ranging, clear and authoritative text is an essential
reference for students, scholars and anyone with an interest in
British America.
