Description
British first edition. No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked with small repaired tears and slight rubbing to upper edge. 272pp. By 1630, Europeans had established settlements on the eastern and southern fringes of North America, but the interior was forbidding and virtually unknown. By the 1770s the prosperous Atlantic seaboard was on the verge of independance and the general configuration of the continent was known. This volume covers the activity in the intervening years. A heavy book.
