Reviews

A work that is easily the fullest and most intelligent survey of colonial culture available. . . From Colonials to Provincials covers an impressive range of people, groups, and movements. The notes almost invariably point readers to the most important scholarship. -Steven C. Bullock, Worcester Polytechnic Institute. William and Mary Quarterly, Vol. LIX, No. 2, April 2002


""This book forms a marvelous introduction to the transatlantic interplay of enlightenment culture and Protestant piety that Scots did so much to foster in English-speaking America. Highly recommended for American history surveys.""-Richard B. Sher, Eighteenth-Century Scotland (Spring 1998) ""A work that is easily the fullest and most intelligent survey of colonial culture available... From Colonials to Provincials covers an impressive range of people, groups, and movements. The notes almost invariably point readers to the most important scholarship.""-Steven C. Bullock, William and Mary Quarterly, (April 2002) ""Ned Landsman's From Colonials to Provincials is both comprehensive and succinct, the best synthesis we have of colonial thought and culture for the three generations preceding the Revolution.""-John Murrin, Princeton University
