Adapting to a New World English Society in the Seventeenth-Century Chesapeake

Often compared unfavorably with colonial New England, the early Chesapeake has been portrayed as irreligious, unstable, and violent. In this important new study, James Horn challenges this conventional view and looks across the Atlantic to assess the enduring influence of English attitudes, values, and behavior on the social and cultural evolution of the early Chesapeake.Horn, James J. is the author of 'Adapting to a New World English Society in the Seventeenth-Century Chesapeake' with ISBN 9780807821374 and ISBN 0807821373.
