Trading Freedom
There is little question that as we face the rest of the twenty-first century, relations with China will define America. Despite Dael Norwood's subtitle, the same cannot be said of the first century of American independence. Commercial relations with China remained relatively insignificant in early America, usually accounting for no more than two to four percent of United States trade (see Norwood's charts in his appendix, pages 186–95). Yet this…

Michael A. Schoeppner. Moral Contagion
Historians do not pay enough attention to the Negro Seamen Acts. First passed by South Carolina in 1822 in the wake of the Denmark Vesey conspiracy, by the 1840s nearly every deep southern state with access to salt water had similar legislation that barred black sailors from interacting with locals. Southerners who supported these laws believed that it was essential to have a moral quarantine to prevent black sailors from bringing a message of fr…
Janet Sorensen. Strange Vernaculars
Language is dynamic. Words constantly enter into and go out of use. Tracing those changes orally in the past is impossible. Instead we are limited to examining the written word. In Strange Vernaculars Janet Sorensen offers a window into some of the changes in the written English language during the eighteenth century. Sorensen believes that the languages of the common people entered the print world to help mold an English national identity. She f…
Outlaws of the Atlantic
We have heard the narrative before: sailors, Africans, and the poor united in the Atlantic world to oppose the capitalist power that sought to exploit and dominate labor. Indeed, four of the chapters in Outlaws of the Atlantic have been published previously. The other three are papers presented over the course of a long career. Yet Marcus Rediker manages to make it all work. First, Rediker is a wonderful storyteller. When he traces the peregrinat…

To Swear like a Sailor
Anyone could swear like a sailor! Within the larger culture, sailors had pride of place in swearing. But how they swore and the reasons for their bad language were not strictly wedded to maritime things. Instead, sailor swearing, indeed all swearing in this period, was connected to larger developments. This book traces the interaction between the maritime and mainstream world in the United States while examining cursing, language, logbooks, story…

Boston Riots
As Jack Tager demonstrates, Boston has an interesting riot history. The colonial city erupted into collective violence often and for a variety of reasons, including attacks on customs regulations, the exportation of bread, celebrations of Pope Day, and impressment. During the nineteenth century the people of Boston continued to riot, especially over ethnicity and religion. In the twentieth century Boston gained infamy for the anarchy that accompa…

American Artisans
Given the fundamental changes that transformed American society in the years between Benjamin Franklin's apprenticeship in a printer's shop and mid-19th-century efforts to organize labouring men and women, no social group offers a more interesting spectacle than skilled tradesmen or artisans. They came from various ethnic backgrounds (some worked in slavery), took their religion and politics seriously, lived mostly in cities but also in the count…

The Road to Mobocracy
A Trip Through Riot, Rout, and Tumult in New York
The Road to Mobocracy, however painful for many of the New Yorkers who actually travelled it, is for most of its length an illuminating trip for those who want better to understand the evolution of popular urban disorder between the Revolutionary and Jacksonian eras. If the Colonial foundation is sometimes swampy there are deliberate warning signals over most of those patches that may not bear full weight. As the trip progresses the road improves…
