American Colonies

"In American Colonies, historian Alan Taylor challenges the traditional Anglocentric focus of colonial history by exploring the many cultural influences that gave birth to America. The result is a superlative history of the prerevolutionary era in North America that is unprecedented in its scope and sure to become a landmark."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: TO WRITE A HISTORY of colonial America used to be easier, because the human cast and the geographic stage were both considered so much smaller.
