Bemerkungen
Inside in nearly mint condition. Vol. I: Atlantic America, 1492-1800. With plenty of illustrations and maps, full-page and in the text. In this volume Meinig deals with many issues, such as human migrations, racial encounters, cultural patterns, world economic systems, and distinctive locations and environments. He focuses in particular on how an immense diversity of ethnic and religious groups - Europeans, Africans, and American Indians - became sorted into a set of distinct regional societies. Meinig's context is the Atlantic world that emerged from centuries of seafaring, conquering, and cultivating and the web of relationships that bound Europe, West Africa, tropical America, and North America in profound ways. Seen against this background, the history of colonial America becomes part of a broader and richer canvas stretching from Hudson Bay to Barbados and Brazil. ... (flap).
