About this book

In Volume II of A History of the United States, Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Edward Channing presents a detailed and authoritative account of a century of colonial development, from 1660 to 1760—a pivotal era that shaped the political, social, and economic foundations of the emerging American nation. This volume explores the maturing of the British colonies along the Atlantic seaboard, the rise of self-governance, religious and cultural diversification, and the growing complexity of colonial economies. Channing examines the evolution of institutions, the influence of European rivalries in North America, and the increasing tensions between colonial interests and imperial control. With scholarly depth and clear narrative, Channing brings to life the century before the American Revolution—a period marked by expansion, experimentation, and conflict. From the establishment of new colonies and the impact of mercantilism to Native relations and intercolonial cooperation, this book lays essential groundwork for understanding the forces that would soon lead to independence. A vital resource for students, historians, and anyone interested in the colonial roots of the United States.
