Atlantic Families - Lives and Letters in the Later Eighteenth Century - Bog af Sarah (Senior Lecturer in Non-European History Pearsall - Hardback

The growth of the Atlantic world led to the separation of many families. Sarah Pearsall explores their lives and letters, revealing the sometimes shocking stories of those divided by sea, and argues that it was these transatlantic bonds-much more than the American Revolution-that reshaped contemporary ideals about marriage and the family.
