From Newcastle to Jamaica
Captain Gregory Butler is currently unknown, but he played a leading role in the conquest of Jamaica. Uncovering his identity, the author discovers a network of puritans stretching across from London to Newcastle that promoted the colonization of the Caribbean. The puritan minister John Oxenbridge became Gregory’s link to this network after he married Gregory’s older sister. Another sister married an influential puritan merchant of Newcastle. The…

Our Dear-Bought Liberty
Roman Catholics do not figure much in accounts of early American religious liberty, and understandably so. The vast majority of the free people in the new United States were Protestant. Accordingly, accounts of early American religious liberty favor Protestants, and especially the English philosopher John Locke. However, as Michael Breidenbach points out in this well-researched and important study, there is one big problem with this approach: Loc…
Congress's Own
We sometimes forget Canada was supposed to be part of the United States. Invading it was one of the first national projects undertaken by the Continental Congress, shortly after establishing the Continental Army. In this well-researched social and military history, Holly A. Mayer brings to life a legacy of both those endeavors: the Second Canadian Regiment, later known as Congress's Own regiment. From the spring of 1776 until the Continental Army…
A European Turn in Early American History
From the nineteenth century onwards, Americans have naturalized their colonial origins into a consensual nationalist history, emphasizing America’s perceived role as a refuge for the persecuted, while smoothing out a myriad of complexities in the process. Evan Haefeli attempts to overturn the assumptions underpinning this narrative and is convinced that many important aspects of early America need to be understood within a broader European contex…
After 400 Years
Just over four hundred years ago, the humble ship Mayflower with a few hundred passengers and crew dropped anchor off the coast of what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, inaugurating the second English colony in North America and the first permanent colony in what had only recently been labeled New England. Profiting from this anniversary, a variety of scholars have published works on Plymouth colony. Until now, the history of New Plymouth, as it w…
Puritanism in Transatlantic Perspective
David D. Hall’s book comprises a transatlantic history of the Puritan movement from its sixteenth-century emergence to its heyday under Oliver Cromwell and its subsequent political demise after 1660. Hall provides insights into the movement’s trajectory, including the various forms of Puritan belief and practice in England and Scotland and their transatlantic migration. In Hall’s sweeping view, Puritanism was a driving force for cultural change i…

Becoming a “Nation of Statesmen”
Using oral traditions alongside the documentary record uncovers a little known peace forged between the Mohicans and the Iroquois League on the eve of King Philip's War. The resulting alliance altered the regional balance of power and provided the foundation for Mohican diplomacy for the next century and a half
A ndrew R. M urphy . William Penn
The cover image of this excellent and highly readable biography is a portrait of the young William Penn wearing a breastplate. With intelligent, serious eyes and a striking face, he gazes out at the viewer in quiet expectation. Though attractive, it is not the only available image from his life. The other is a pastel portrait of Penn in his fifties. The intelligence in the eyes remains, but the face sags from stress and disappointment. This choic…
Michael Guasco. Slaves and Englishmen
In a welcome addition to the literature on American slavery, Michael Guasco takes us away from the iconic moment when “‘20. and odd Negroes’” (p. 1) were first brought to Virginia in 1619 and takes us on a journey across the English world in the early years of Anglo-American colonization (roughly the 1490s through the 1660s), demonstrating that English people knew about and encountered slavery in a variety of forms—from Japan to the Americas—long…

The Legacy of Dutch Brazil
This book argues that Dutch Brazil (1624–54) is an integral part of Atlantic history and that it made an impact well beyond colonial and national narratives in the Netherlands and Brazil. In doing so, this book proposes a radical shift in interpretation. The Dutch Atlantic is widely perceived as an incongruity among more durable European empires, whereas Brazil occupies an exceptional place in the history of Latin America, which leads to a view o…

Empires of God
The subject of religion has inspired a successful interdisciplinary inquiry in this volume of essays by literary scholars and historians. The authors’ international approach, with U.S.- and Canada-based scholars working in English-, French-, German-, and Spanish-language materials from the sixteenth through the eighteenth century, is a testament to the possibilities and limitations of Atlantic world studies. To organize the history of religion an…
Toleration
Toleration has become a much discussed and studied topic in recent years, revealing a new degree of ambivalence about its meaning and significance. This essay explores how toleration is being studied and suggests the difficulties and limitations involved in approaching this dynamic topic as a stable, consistent idea. It concludes by suggesting that there is no perfect or single ideal of toleration. Rather, toleration involves a variety of relatio…
On First Contact and Apotheosis
To understand the significance of stories of first contact in which native peoples around the world are said to have mistaken Europeans (or their goods) as gods or godlike, this article examines written and oral accounts of such encounters in the context within which they were transmitted. Noting that the source of many of these ideas is often native peoples, it suggests moving beyond the tendency to say they did or did not see Europeans as gods.…
