The Atlantic Frontier of the Thirteen American Colonies and States
Credit in the slave trade and plantation economies
Citizens of the World
Rural Images
Just when private property materialized as an important social institution, a new kind of map appeared - the estate map. Prepared for private owners rather than national powers, these maps have been a little-studied strain of cadastral mapping until now. In this book, a group of leading historians - Sarah Bendall, David Buisseret, P.D.A. Harvey and B.W. Higman - follow the spread of estate maps from their origin in England around 1570 to colonial…

Perry of London
The Establishment of English colonies in North America and the West Indies in the seventeenth century opened new opportunities for trade. Conspicuous among the families who used these opportunities to gain mercantile and social importance was the Perry family of Devon, who created Perry and Lane, by the end of the century the most important London firm trading to the Chesapeake and other parts of North America. Jacob Price traces the family from …

Credit in the slave trade and plantation economies
A few years ago, I was invited to prepare for this conference a paper on credit in the slave trade. Over the years, I had accumulated some scraps of data on this topic, as well as bibliographic references to the vast and ever-growing library of scholarly books on slavery. After accepting this deceptively easy assignment, I proceeded through a very long shelf of publications on the slave trade – including many by those here today – only to discove…

What Did Merchants Do? Reflections on British Overseas Trade, 1660-1790
The relative dynamism of English and Scottish foreign trade from 1675 to 1775 can largely be explained by the interrelated phenomena of the growing domestic demand for American and Asian consumer goods and North European raw materials; the growing market in northern and western Europe for re-exports of American and Asian consumables; and the growing protected market for British manufactures in the American colonies and Africa. Trade growth depend…

A Revolution of Scale in Overseas Trade
In seventeenth-century England the relatively open trades to America attracted ventures by hundreds of small merchants and shopkeepers. This ease of entry was checked after 1685 by very high customs duties on tobacco and intense regulation. Between 1685 and 1775 the number of firms in that trade was radically reduced and the size of the average firm increased ten to thirtyfold. Comparable if less extreme trends can be detected in the sugar, slave…
The Economic Growth of the Chesapeake and the European Market, 1697–1775
The relative position of the Chesapeake in the economy of the thirteen colonies before the American Revolution is a matter of some ambiguity. On the one hand, we are traditionally taught to view Virginia and Maryland as somewhat backward compared to their northern neighbors, particularly in their lack of large towns and of those forms of a centralized market economy commonly based upon urban commercial centers. On the other hand, simple quantitat…

A Note on the Value of Colonial Exports of Shipping
Aside from their studies of the iron industry, historians have given relatively little attention to the non-household manufacturing industries of colonial America—perhaps, many would say, for the very good reason that there was not much activity along these lines before the conjuncture of the American and the Industrial Revolutions. Yet there were manufactures that reached significant volumes for those times. One of these was the colonial shipbui…

The recent death of Professor Sir Lewis Namier (19 August 1960) provides an occasion to assess, albeit most tentatively, if not the man (I did not know him well), then at least his contribution to the writing of English history. The need for such an assessment is a little ironic, for Sir Lewis, for all his renown, has left a somewhat indistinct after-image among historians in this country. Ever since the appearance in 1929 of his great work on th…

This office, which began operations in i696, kept quite detailed accounts of the quantities and estimated values of all commodities that England exported or imported. Despite the obvious utility of such records and the frequent references made to them by contemporari…
