C OLONIAL and Revolutionary New England has long commanded the interest of historians; in the present generation it has evoked some of the most vibrant work in American history. In interest paid to this area, economic history is no exception; an extensive secondary literature describes and analyzes commerce and shipping, wealth distribution, various crafts and industries, agriculture, and transportation. Few subjects have escaped monographic attention; but, surprisingly, amidst these scholarly riches no one has attempted a systematic analysis that would provide an overview of the economic development of the region or of any one colony in it.' We have many microscopic slides but they have not been integrated into a full picture. This article does not pretend to be a complete synthesis; it is offered as a modest topical and chronological essay on the economic development of one colony, Connecticut, from its founding until the first federal census of I790
