In recent years an upsurge of interest in colonial British-American history has transformed the field as much as any other in the English-speaking world. The editors (one American, one British) of this collection of fifteen original essays have brought together a highly representative selection of American, British, and Canadiam scholars, all of whom have significantly contributed to the recent historiographical transformation. The aim has been twofold: to summarize and evaluate the achievement, and to suggest the themes and problems that now demand the attention of historical research in order to indicate the directions that research should take. At the same time, by bringing modern methods to bear on the period, this remarkably comprehensive collection goes far to redefine the field and to make America's colonial past more lively and more intelligible than ever before.

Industry Reviews

""The study of colonial British America has made enormous progress in recent decades. Many of those who have contributed substantially to this advance here assess the changes for which they can claim responsibility, and no major historian escapes mention and discussion.""
