内容説明

For undergraduate/graduate courses in Colonial American History. This original text brings together four pairs of essays that examine the themes of slavery, migration, and imagination in the Atlantic World from 1500-1800. Offering all the advantages of an Atlantic approach, it explores major historical topics and the manifold connections between the Old World and the New in the early modern period. With essays by such authoritative scholars as David Eltis, Paul Lovejoy, Benjamin Schmidt, and Jorge Canizares-Esguerra, The Atlantic World is an important new book for the colonial American history course.
