Tobacco, Pipes, and Race in Colonial Virginia: Little Tubes of Mighty Power

Description

Tobacco, Pipes, and Race in Colonial Virginia investigates the industrial and social power that surrounded the production and use of tobacco pipes in colonial Virginia and the trouble of correlating objects with cultural identities. A not unusual artifact in colonial period sites, previous publications in this subject have focused at the decorations at the pipes or which ethnic group produced and used the pipes, “European,” “African,” or “Indian.” This book weaves together new interpretations, analytical techniques, classification schemes, historical background, and archaeological methods and theory. Special attention is paid to the subfield of African diaspora research to display the complexities of working out this class of subject material culture. This fascinating look at is obtainable to the undergraduate reader, in addition to to graduate students and scholars.
