The English Atlantic in an age of revolution, 1640-1661

"Between 1640 and 1660, England, Scotland, and Ireland faced civil war, invasion, religious radicalism, parliamentary rule, and the restoration of the monarchy. Carla Gardina Pestana offers a history that systematically connects these cataclysmic events and the development of the infant plantations from Newfoundland to Surinam."--BOOK JACKET.
