商品簡介
Cited in Books for College Libraries, 3d ed. , this work was first published in 1957; Dover again does service with an important reprint. The study begins with the development of commerce and aristocracy in each colony, one revelatory bit being that Native Americans were enslaved in South Carolina and sent to the West Indies. Wright (fmr. director, Folger Shakespeare Library, Washington, DC) proceeds to discussions of religion, diversions, architecture, education, communications, and books. Annotation c.
