Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book charts the course of Colonial administration in 1711â"12, a year of great consequence in the sphere of transatlantic politics and relations. The failure of the British expedition against Canada and preliminary negotiations for peace with France â" events of enduring significance in European and global history â" took place alongside a flurry of other high-stakes administrative matters in the colonies of the Caribbean and North America. The deadlock created in New Jersey is explored alongside the intransigent attitude of the Assembly of New York and the contemplated action by Parliament that ensued. The author has drawn from a vast archive of letters, reports and other official documents, many of which are published here for the first time, to recreate the political atmosphere of the year and excavate the motives and calculations that drove men like Henry St. John, who played a central role in the negotiations for the Treaty of Utrecht, and Edward Hyde, Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina, who battled an armed rebellion against his authority. The documents and insights presented here cast light not just on the historical backdrop of this dramatic period, but also on the origins of some of the conceptual and constitutional tensions that continue to shape politics in the Caribbean and the Americas today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
