Colonial America by Edward G Gray
By examining the lives of the colonists through their own words-in diaries, letters, sermons, newspaper columns, and poems-Colonial America: A History in Documents, Second Edition, reveals how immigrants, despite their vast differences, laid the foundations for a new nation.
"[Editors Gray and Kamensky] bring us essays that go international, 'institutional,' and 'cultural' while bridging patrician-plebeian divides... [A] very useful entry in the Oxford Handbook series." --Reviews in American History "...[T]he worldwide reach of the revolution is the overarching theme. Most entries link the lives of participants - and victims - in surprising ways to the larger picture. ... This is a comprehensive introduction to current trends in the historiography of the American Revolution. Recommended." --CHOICE "[A] once-in-a-generation reassessment of scholarship on [the American Revolution and the Founding Fathers." --Verso: Blog of the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens
