very good dust-jacket, attractive copy, very good dark green cloth, appears unused. LAID IN: errata sheet. ROEBER, A. G. Palatines, liberty, and property: German Lutherans in colonial British America. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1993, xiii, 432pp., . Series: Early America Historians usually look for the origins of American political culture among English-speaking people and British constitutional and legal sources. Yet German immigrants to the colonies also contributed to - and developed for themselves - an American political consciousness. In Palatines, Liberty, and Property A.G. Roeber focuses on this neglected subject and explains why so many Germans, when they faced critical choices in 1776, became active supporters of the patriot cause. Employing a variety of German-language sources, Roeber explores German conceptions of personal and public property in the context of cultural and religious beliefs, village life, and family concerns. He follows all the major German migration streams, beginning with the Palatines in New York and including Germans who settled in Pennsylvania, Virginia, South Carolina, and Georgia. Roeber's study of German-American ideas about liberty and property provides a unique perspective within a growing historiography on the transfer of culture and beliefs from Europe and Africa to America. - CONTENTS: 1.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A. G. Roeber's new family history traces his ancestors from poor butcher shops in 16th century Saxony to the 'German Mesa' on the western slope of the Colorado Rockies. No simple heroic pioneer tale, theirs is a tangled story of risk and ambition, marriage and divorce, births and untimely deaths, of striving for success, seizing opportunities, settling down, uprooting and settling again, always adapting to forces beyond their control.…
