Early American historians are finding connections between the
bonded status of African American slaves, European indentured
servants, convicts, and sailors. An excellent starting point for
this inquiry is this neglected classic by Lawrence Towner, former
head of the Newberry Library in Chicago and editor of the "William
and Mary Quarterly," This comprehensive study of the lives and
experiences of bonded laborers in colonial Massachusetts
demonstrates the full sweep of their work and aspirations
Towner analyzes the legal status of all varieties of black and
white bonded laborers. He explores their living and working
conditions and discusses the cultural significance of work in their
lives. The book also address gender issues in bonded labor. The
author's approach provides a new understanding of the experiences
of black and white workers in early America, and corrects a
long-standing neglect of blacks in previous research. This edition
makes this important work available in print for the first time,
and includes an introductory essay by Alfred F. Young,
"Dissertations and Gatekeepers: Why it took45 Years for a Ph.D.
Thesis to be Published."

A reappraisal of Napoleon the man. Roger Williams' biographical
study shows how medical evidence can be used as historical data to
refine our view of the past. For an accurate picture, he examines
the medical evidence of the case, the emperor's psychological
make-up, and the external pressures on him: the Crimean and
Franco-Prussian wars, government reforms, the competence of his
advisers, the political finagling of the empress, the assumptions
and reactions of foreign governments. Originally published in 1972.
The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
