J. H. Elliott, one of the most distinguished and versatile historians working today, offers us history on a grand scale, contrasting the worlds built by Britain and by Spain on the ruins of the civilizations they encountered and destroyed in North and South America. Elliott identifies and explains both the similarities and differences in the two empires' processes of colonization, the character of their colonial societies, their distinctive styles of imperial government, and the independence movements mounted against them. Based on wide reading in the history of the two great Atlantic civilizations, the book sets the Spanish and British colonial empires in the context of their own times and offers us insights into aspects of this dual history that still influence the Americas. 606 $aBritish$zAtlantic Ocean Region$xHistory 606 $aSpaniards$zAtlantic Ocean Region$xHistory 607 $aAmerica$xHistory$yTo 1810 607 $aGreat Britain$xColonies$zAmerica$xHistory 607 $aSpain$xColonies$zAmerica$xHistory 607 $aAmerica$xColonization 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBritish$xHistory. 615 0$aSpaniards$xHistory. 676 $a970/.02 700 $aElliott$b John Huxtable$0156581 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452202303321 996 $aEmpires of the atlantic world$91246743 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01137nas 2200385-a 450 001 9910222195303321 005 20240413021909.0 035 $a(CKB)110975507367570 035 $a(CONSER)sn-92019628- 035 $a(EXLCZ)99110975507367570 100 $a19831209c19uuuuuu --- a 101 0 $aeng 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aECOS 210 $aChichester $cPackard Pub 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aThe journal of BANC. 300 $a"A review of conservation." 311 08$aPrint version: ECOS. 0143-9073 (DLC)sn 92019628 (OCoLC)10206542 517 1 $aEcos 531 $aECOS A REVIEW OF CONSERVATION 606 $aNature conservation$vPeriodicals 606 $aNature conservation$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01034632 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 615 0$aNature conservation 615 7$aNature conservation. 676 $a333.7205 712 02$aBritish Association of Nature Conservationists. 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910222195303321 920 $aexl_impl conversion 996 $aEcos$92068361 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06336oam 2200721 a 450 001 9910973508503321 005 20241216194915.0 010 $a9798400635366 010 $a9786610869251 010 $a9781280869259 010 $a1280869259 010 $a9780313011320 010 $a031301132X 024 7 $a10.5040/9798400635366 035 $a(CKB)111087027039328 035 $a(OCoLC)614596708 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10040704 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000133622 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11129479 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000133622 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10046311 035 $a(PQKB)11459811 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3000884 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10040704 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL86925 035 $a(OCoLC)52734130 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3000884 035 $a(OCoLC)48469213 035 $a(DLC)BP9798400635366BC 035 $a(Perlego)4202547 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111087027039328 100 $a20011108e20022024 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCulture and customs of Ghana /$fSteven J.

The culture and customs of Ghana today are a product of diversity in traditional forms, influenced by a long history of Islamic and European contact. Culture and Customs of Ghana is the first book to concisely provide an up-to-date narrative on the most significant elements of the established cultural life and institutions as well as the most recent changes in the cultural landscape. Written expressly for students and the general reader, it belongs in every library supporting multicultural and African studies curricula. Ghana seeks to cultivate the philosophy of the African personality, to revive, maintain, and promote Ghanaian ways of life and integrate them into political and social institutions. Ghanaians also recognize their relationship to the rest of the world and continue to develop with the forces of globalization. Culture and Customs of Ghana authoritatively discusses the vibrant and adaptable people, from their religions to music and dance. A chronology, glossary, and numerous photos complement the text. 410 0$aCulture and customs of Africa. 607 $aGhana$xSocial life and customs 607 $aGhana$xCivilization 676 $a306/.09667 700 $aSalm$b Steven J.$f1966-$01797181 701 $aFalola$b Toyin$0661412 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973508503321 996 $aCulture and customs of Ghana$94339305 997 $aUNINA
