Taylor & Francis Early North America in Global Perspective
Book SynopsisEarly North American history is a field in flux. In the last thirty years, the field of Atlantic History has transformed scholarly studies of colonial America, bringing to light the many connections linking the Americas to Africa and Europe. Recently, though, historians have begun to question the utility of the Atlantic framework. Some suggest that it overlooks global phenomena, while others argue for a hemispheric or continental perspective on North Americaâs early history.Early North America in Global Perspective collects the most interesting and innovative scholarly approaches to these questions. Anchored by a robust introduction that guides the reader through the various conceptual arguments, the fourteen essays gathered here introduce students to some of the finest historians of early America working in expansive and stimulating ways. These essays capture the complexity of North Americaâs past and are in tune with the global influences that shape its present. Trade ReviewThis masterful collection strikes the perfect balance between synthesis and innovation. Early North America emerges here as a composite of global maritime currents, intersecting imperial projects, ecological transformations, inventive cultural practice, and startling violence, in rich essays that offer wide-ranging introductions and identify new challenges for the field.—Lauren Benton, author of A Search for Sovereignty: Law and Geography in European Empires, 1400-1900An all-star roster of scholars; a stellar collection of essays; an editorial hand that deftly sketches contexts, suggests connections, and poses probing questions: these ingredients make Early North America in Global Perspective an important--indeed, vital--contribution to the ongoing conversations about Early America, the Atlantic World, and the peoples, places, and oceans beyond.—James H. Merrell, co-editor of American Encounters: Natives and Newcomers from European Contact to Indian Removal, 1500-1850Globalization has a history and North America has a part in that history. That part was especially pronounced in the early modern period as this stimulating collection of essays on early North American history and world history attests. Accompanied by a robust and helpful introduction, this collection is a first-rate guide to a topic of enormous historical and contemporary importance.—Trevor Burnard, co-editor of The Routledge History of SlaveryThis volume provides potential students of the Atlantic World with a sampling of the delights they may encounter there. Essays by revered authors such as David Brion Davis and J.H. Elliott are juxtaposed with innovative chapters by such younger scholars as Michael Jarvis and Ashli White, and they range from investigations into migration and hybridization to ecology and revolution.—Nicholas Canny, editor of The Origins of Empire: British Overseas Enterprise to the Close of the Seventeenth CenturyAcross the geographic reach and temporal breadth of this volume, we see how the perspectives of the new global history have reshaped our understanding of "colonial America." In its pages, Africans, Indians, and Europeans who cross borders to trade, work, marry, sail, explore, or destroy take their places as historical actors whose experiences illuminate the transformation of the early modern world.—S.

Taylor & Francis The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens
Book SynopsisThe American South is so identified with the Civil War that people often forget that the key battles from the final years of the American Revolution were fought in Southern states. The Southern backcountry was the center of the fight for independence, but backcountry devotion to the Patriot cause was slow in coming. Decades of animosity between coastal elites and backcountry settlers who did not enjoy accurate representation in the assemblies meant a complex political and social milieu throughout this turbulent time. The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens brings to light the world of the Southern backcountry that engendered its role in the Revolutionary War. With careful attention to political, social, and military history, Walker concentrates on the communities and events not typically covered in books on the Revolutionary War. Through government documents, autobiographies, correspondence, and diaries, The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens gives studTrade ReviewKings Mountain and Cowpens exemplified the extent to which the American Revolution was a civil war that divided many communities. Melissa Walker presents a lucid narrative of these pivotal battles. Her superb selection of primary sources includes both dramatic eyewitness accounts and compelling vignettes of backcountry life. Cynthia A. Kierner, author of A Perfect Temper: The Life and Times of Martha Jefferson RandolphRoutledge’s Critical Moments in American History series is designed to “give students a window into the historian’s craft through concise readable books…[that] bring together the best scholarship and engaging primary sources…” (p. viii). Melissa Walker’s The Battles of Kings Mountain and Cowpens does exactly this in a user-friendly format that will attract undergraduates...Walker has written a book that demonstrates the complexity of the American Revolutionary War in the southern backcountry...[and those] who want a well-written synopsis of thistopic for use in a college classroom, should consider this book.Michael P. Gabriel, Kutztown University of PennsylvaniaTable of ContentsChapter one: The Southern Backcountry Before the American RevolutionChapter two: Imperial Crisis in the SouthChapter three: Revolutionary War and the Challenge of Winning Hearts and MindsChapter four: The South’s first civil war: the fall of Charles Town and its aftermath Chapter five: Kings Mountain: "first link in a chain"Chapter six: The Battle of Cowpens: Victory for "The Flying Army"Chapter seven: DenouementDocuments

Taylor & Francis The Old South
Book SynopsisIn this, the re-titled second edition of Society and Culture in the Slave South, J. William Harris selects the most recent and original scholarship in the field of the antebellum South published since 1992, when the first edition appeared. The present volume illustrates both the continuities and new developments in antebellum Southern history, starting from the work of Eugene Genovese and Elizabeth Fox-Genovese, and moving into work that challenges their traditional reading of the slave South as a paternalist society. The collection also features an introduction to the historiography of the slave South, and a Guide to Further Reading.Trade Review"J. William Harris' The Old South: New Studies of Society and Culture brings together an impressive array of diverse social and cultural history of the pre-Civil war South as written by some of the most gifted scholars among the current generation of southern historians. It is broadly representative of much of the best work done over the past fifteen years. It successfully defines the cutting edge of southern social and cultural history for all who care to know."— Lacy Ford, author of A Companion to the Civil War and Reconstruction"With essays about plantation owners and slaves, labor and property, and many forms of politics, this collection presents the easiest way to encounter the most exciting recent scholarship on the antebellum South."— Ted Ownby, author of American Dreams in Mississippi: Consumers, Poverty, and Culture, 1830-1998"In this revised collection of essays, J. William Harris has provided teachers of southern history with an invaluable teaching tool that incorporates the newest and most exciting approaches to the social and cultural history of the Old South such as gender relations and political culture."— Mitchell Snay, author of Fenians, Freedmen, and Southern Whites: Race and Nationality in the Era of Reconstruction 'This gives a really good platform for dissertation reserach and, in my opinion, is an excellent read in its own right' – Richard Toley, History Teaching Review'This gives a really good platform for dissertation reserach and, in my opinion, is an excellent read in its own right' – Richard Toley, History Teaching Review
