Synopsis
Between 1640 and 1660, England, Scotland, and Ireland faced civil war, invasion, religious radicalism, parliamentary rule, and the restoration of the monarchy. Carla Gardina Pestana offers a sweeping history that systematically connects these cataclysmic events and the development of the infant plantations from Newfoundland to Surinam. Pestana presents a compelling case for rethinking our assumptions about empire and colonialism and offers an invaluable look at the creation of the English Atlantic world.

Review
Carla Pestana's new book marks a significant step in the re-imagining of colonial America. Instead of focusing on a particular colony, her work spans the English Atlantic--the series of colonies, some rather small and soon forgotten, that ranged from Newfoundland to the Caribbean. Her theme is an important one that has lain dormant for too long: the transformation of England's Atlantic colonies by the revolutionary events of the 1640s and 1650s. The result is a powerful account of how an event generally overlooked in American histories played a crucial role in the development of colonial American society.--Evan Haefeli"Business History Review" (07/01/2005)
