| Description: |
A roster of historians reassesses inequality in early America. |
| Synopsis: |
This book was designed as a collaborative effort to satisfy a long-felt need to pull together many important but separate inquiries into the nature and impact of inequality in colonial and revolutionary America. It also honors the scholarship of Gary Nash, who has contributed much of the leading work in this field. The 15 contributors, who constitute a Who's Who of those who have made important discoveries and reinterpret of this issue, include, Mary Beth Norton on women's legal inequality in early America; Neal Salisbury on Puritan missionaries and Native Americans; Laurel Thatcher Ulrich on elite and poor women's work in early Boston; Peter Wood and Philip Morgan on early American slavery, as well as Gary Nash himself writing on Indian/white history. The book will be immediately considered a vital contribution to American self-understanding and to historical analysis. |
