‘Poor Carolina’: Politics and Society in Colonial North Carolina, 1729-1776

Description

Ekrich examines the explanations for eighteenth-century North Carolina’s political factionalism, social violence, and governmental paralysis. Especially disruptive were the hole of new areas of settlement and the influx of migrant groups with high subject material hopes, particularly for the reason that colony’s economy remained underdeveloped all the way through much of the century. Fresh analyses are drawn of Governor Burrington’s fiery administration, the Granville district turmoil of the 1760s, and Regular Riots.

Originally published in 1981.
