Description

A Cultural History of the Atlantic World, 1250-1820, explores the idea that strong linkages exist in the histories of Africa, Europe, North America, and South America.  John K. Thornton provides a comprehensive overview of the history of the Atlantic Basin before 1830 by describing political, social, and cultural interactions between the continents’ inhabitants.  He traces the backgrounds of the populations on these three continental landmasses brought into contact by European navigation.
