Migration and the Origins of the English Atlantic World

Angebote / Angebote:

England's seventeenth-century colonial empire in North America and the Caribbean was created by migration, as captured in the London port register of 1635, the largest extant port register for any single year in the colonial period and unique in its record of migration to America and to the European continent. Alison Games analyzes the 7, 500 people who traveled from London in that year, recreating individual careers, exploring colonial societies at a time of emerging viability, and delineating a world sustained and defined by migration. Together, the migrants' stories offer a new social history of the seventeenth century.
