Synopsis
The great Tidewater planters of mid-eighteenth-century Virginia were fathers of the American Revolution. Perhaps first and foremost, they were also anxious tobacco farmers, harried by a demanding planting cycle, trans-Atlantic shipping risks, and their uneasy relations with English agents. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and their contemporaries lived in a world that was dominated by questions of debt from across an ocean but also one that stressed personal autonomy. T. H. Breen's study of this tobacco culture focuses on how elite planters gave meaning to existence. He examines the value-laden relationships--found in both the fields and marketplaces--that led from tobacco to politics, from agrarian experience to political protest, and finally to a break with the political and economic system that they believed threatened both personal independence and honor.

- o***1 (1096)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoHave bought from this seller many times before & it always been a good experience-this time was no exception! Book was bought “buy it now” at an excellent price for a hardcover…shipping was pretty good & book was shipped in a bag type mailer that was reinforced by wrapping around the book twice …I was impressed by the condition of the book too! It was listed in the description as good but I felt the book could have been listed as “like new” (yes that good!) highly recommend this seller!
- 4***e (51)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoBook well packaged and despatched promptly although it took 2 weeks to arrive. At the same time a book ordered on the same day from a different US seller arrived a week earlier and postage was a lot cheaper. Book in good condition as described.
- e***r (527)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThis was an order for two books, shipped together. Very few sellers can match the care, consideration and diligence that this seller has shown me. The packaging was phenomenal and shipping appears to have been done on the same day as the order. Pricing was very fair. Five stars are not enough but it's all I can do for now. My sincerest thanks!!!
