Book excerpt: Volume 1, The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World carries the interrelated stories of publishing, writing, and reading from the beginning of the colonial period in America up to 1790. Three major themes run through the volume: the persisting connections between the book trade in the Old World and the New, evidenced in modes of intellectual and cultural exchange and the dominance of imported, chiefly English books; the gradual emergence of a competitive book trade in which newspapers were the largest form of production; and the institution of a culture of the Word, organized around an essentially theological understanding of print, authorship, and reading, complemented by other frameworks of meaning that included the culture of republicanism

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literature of American History: A Bibliographical Guide This is a narrative of the chief episodes of the his tory of the Germans in this country in the colonial epoch. It is a hasty compilation, loosely thrown to gether, made after a brief study in the literature of the subject, in no sense a scientific contribution to the history of the Germans in America. The sources consulted are mentioned at the end of the book with out reference to their order of importance or publica tion. The bibliography is limited almost exclusively to American works and is even here incomplete. The style is rugged and obscure. Condensed from M. D. Learned in Am. Hist. Rev., 6: 813.
