Download or read book Colonial Chesapeake written by Debra Meyers and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Colonial Chesapeake: New Perspectives leading scholars offer interdisciplinary revisionist essays on the political, cultural and social history of early Maryland and Virginia, calling special attention to the importance of power relations, reproductive politics, and identity politics in the shaping of the area. Using primary documents, which are included with the essays, this collection suggests that the multicultural Chesapeake created significant cultural, intellectual, and social norms that shaped the diverse world of the American people. This anthology uses these perspectives to represent the multitude of experiences in the region, and in doing so captures the essence of race, class, and ethnic and gender diversity that made up life in early Chesapeake Maryland and Virginia. Students and scholars in American history, as well as anthropology, will find this book essential in understanding the political history of the colonial Chesapeake area.

  • Pages : 421 pages

Download or read book Bridging the Chesapeake written by David W. Guth and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-24 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first span of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge opened July 30, 1952, it was a watershed moment in Marylands history. The construction of the bridge took political courage, creative engineering, people working together, and a determination to overcome pettiness. In this detailed history, journalism professor David W. Guth traces the bridges history from its planning to its post-construction effects on the region. From his boyhood memories of the bridge to the details of its construction, the book also tells the story of the people of Marylandoften referred to as a confederacy of two shores. The recurring themes during the debate over building the first, the second, and now possibly a third bridge highlight issues confronting all Americans, including social and political equality, the price of unrestrained growth, the role government should play in our lives, and the importance of enlightened and courageous leadership. While there were unintended consequences that went along with building a bridge to cross the Chesapeake, it began the process of removing social, political, racial, cultural, and economic barriers.

Book The Early Relations Between Maryland and Virginia  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Early Relations Between Maryland and Virginia Classic Reprint written by John H. Latané and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-13 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Relations Between Maryland and Virginia England until 1638, six years after the charter of Maryland was granted to Cecilius Calvert. Meanwhile, in every act of resistance to the Proprietary of Maryland, Claiborne was backed by the strongest expressions of encouragement and approval from the King and from the Council of Virginia. A few years later the relations between the two colonies were further complicated by the expulsion of a large number of Puritans from Virginia and their settlement in Maryland. During the Protectorate, when the hand of Lord Baltimore was powerless, these Puritans quarreled with the Catholics and a state of civil war for some time prevailed. Claiborne was in no way responsible for this state of affairs, and although he was one Of the commissioners appointed by Parliament for the reduction of the colonies to the authority Of the Common wealth Of England, he seems to have had very little to do with Maryland at this period.

Book Colonial Chesapeake Society

Download or read book Colonial Chesapeake Society written by Lois Green Carr and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2015-05-18 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proof that the renaissance in colonial Chesapeake studies is flourishing, this collection is the first to integrate the immigrant experience of the seventeenth century with the native-born society that characterized the Chesapeake by the eighteenth century. Younger historians and senior scholars here focus on the everyday lives of ordinary people: why they came to the Chesapeake; how they adapted to their new world; who prospered and why; how property was accumulated and by whom. At the same time, the essays encompass broader issues of early American history, including the transatlantic dimension of colonization, the establishment of communities, both religious and secular, the significance of regionalism, the causes and effects of social and economic diversification, and the participation of Indians and blacks in the formation of societies. Colonial Chesapeake Society consolidates current advances in social history and provokes new questions.
