Recenzii

"Sitting at the edges of a New France trading economy and a circum-Caribbean system of slavery as well as at the heart of what would become the continental United States, Louisiana did indeed sit at the crossroads of the Atlantic world. Bridging historiographic and nationalistic divides, Louisiana: Crossroads of the Atlantic World is a welcome addition to the transnational scholarship of eighteenth and early nineteenth century Louisiana."-Jennifer M. Spear, author of Race, Sex, and Social Order in Early New Orleans
