One Of The Strongest Currents In Early American Studies At The Present Time Is A Major Revival Of Interest In The History Of Seventeenthcentury Virginia And Maryland. This Volume Of Essays Illustrates The Richness And Variety Of The Work Being Done, Especially By A Group Of Young Social Historians. Through Its Important Sampling Of New Research, It Succeeds In Bringing The Chesapeake Into Focus As A Region.The Rediscovery Of The Early Chesapeake, Emigration, And Marriage And Family Are Three Of The Essay Topics. Other Subjects Include Environment, Disease, And Mortality; Immigration And Opportunity; Parental Death In A Particular County; Settlement Patterns; Political Stability And The Emergence Of A Native Elite; And Englishborn And Creole Elites In Turnofthecentury Virginia.While The Essays Individually Exemplify A Number Of Distinct Themes And Methodological Approaches To The Subject, As A Whole They Provide A Remarkable Comprehensive Overview Of The Progression In The Seventeenth Century From A Predominantly Emigrant Society, Subsisting Under Conditions Of Great Instability And High Mortality, To A Largely Nativeborn Population That Had Achieved A Notable Degree Of Political And Social Stability.
