Book, pictorial paper, 120 pages : illustrations, maps ; 20 cm. "In April, 1775, the first shots of the American Revolutionary War were fired. They reverberated in what later became New Brunswick, when recent immigrants from New England rose in rebellion. The British moved quickly to crush these rebels, and after the war they made the new frontier with the United States secure by settling Loyalist regiments throughout the area. The result of this wave of British American settlers was the establishment of New Brunswick as a separate colony in 1784.". As New.

Ellis, Joseph J.

American Creation: Triumphs and Tragedies at the Founding of the Republic

New York, Alfred A. Knopf, 2007. First Edition. Hardcover. Size: 8vo 8" - 9" tall. Another fine work of accessible social history from the author and Founding Brothers and His Excellency, the author being winner of both the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize. Fine-looking, structurally sound hardcover, little discernible wear, bright interior, unmarked. Bright and shiny dust jacket, illustrated, little worn. "From Pulitzer Prize-winning American historian Joseph J. Ellis, the unexpected story of why the thirteen colonies, having just fought off the imposition of a distant centralized governing power, would decide to subordinate themselves anew. We all know the famous opening phrase of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address: Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this Continent a new Nation.' The truth is different. In 1776, thirteen American colonies declared themselves independent states that only temporarily joined forces in order to defeat the British. Once victorious, they planned to go their separate ways. The triumph of the American Revolution was neither an ideological nor a political guarantee that the colonies would relinquish their independence and accept the creation of a federal government with power over their autonomy as states. The Quartet is the story of this second American founding and of the men most responsible - George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madision," from the publisher's blurb. Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography. xi [2], 3-283 [4] pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . .

Underwriters of the United States: How Insurance Shaped the American Founding

Williamsburg, VA / Chapel Hill, NC, Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture / University of North Carolina Press, 2021. Hardcover. red boards w/ silver spine printing. 335 pgs w/ bw illustrations. tan & dark illustrated jacket w/ white printing. "Unassuming but formidable, American maritime insurers used their position at the pinnacle of global trade to shape the new nation. The international information they gathered and the capital they generated enabled them to play central roles in state building and economic development. During the Revolution, they helped the U.S. negotiate foreign loans, sell state debts, and establish a single national bank. Afterward, they increased their influence by lending money to the federal government and to its citizens. Even as federal and state governments began to encroach on their domain, maritime insurers adapted, preserving their autonomy and authority through extensive involvement in the formation of commercial law. Leveraging their claims to unmatched expertise, they operated free from government interference while simultaneously embedding themselves into the nation's institutional fabric. By the early nineteenth century, insurers were no longer just risk assessors. They were nation builders and market makers."--Amazon.
