Dr. Jones presents a scholarly and readable history of the oft
forgotten Middle States, laying between New England on the north
and east, and Virginia on the south. "The object of the present
narrative is to show, first, that the Middle colonies possessed
important characteristics and interests in common... Those men who
laid the foundations of New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New
Jersey, and Delaware were too busy with their personal work, too
busy with their labor in advancing colonial, and, later, national,
interests to spread abroad praise of themselves or to contest with
their neighbors to the south or east for control or place." Early
Dutch settlement on the Hudson (1613-1647), Dutch and Swedish
settlements on the Delaware (1623-1647), the struggle for
possession of the Delaware (1621-1647), Dutch conquest of New
Sweden (1647-1655), English conquest of New Netherland (1655-1664),
the Dutch under English rule (1664-1685), Lord Baltimore's
experiment (1632-1685), the evolution of New Jersey (1614-1685),
Penn's "Holy Experiment" (1681-1685), the Revolution of 1688, the
Middle Colonies after the flight of James II (1692-1714), the
French and Indian War (1754-1763), and assumption of Parliamentary
control (1763-1765) are all covered. Individual sections are
devoted to the growth and development of New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, and Maryland (1714-1754), and the migration of
Walloons, Puritans, Huguenots, Quakers, Mennonites, and Lutherans.
A chronological table of events, numerous illustrations, maps, and
a new full-name index augment the text.
