This text examines the transfer of values from Old World to New. 330 $bEighty percent of Americans have no British ancestors. According to David Hackett Fischer, however, their day-to-day lives are profoundly influenced by folkways transplanted from Britain to the New World with the first settlers. Residual, yet persistent, aspects of these 17th Century folkways are indentifiable, Fischer argues, in areas as divers as politics, education, and attitudes towards gender, sexuality, age, and child-raising. Making use of both traditional and revisionist scholarship, this ground-breaking work documents how each successive wave of early emigration--Puritans to the North-East; Royalist aristocrats to the South; the Friends to the Delaware Valley; Irish and North Britons to the American backcountry--contributed to, and continue to affect, ingrained cultural differences between various regions in the United States. 606 $aRegions & Countries - Americas$2HILCC 606 $aHistory & Archaeology$2HILCC 606 $aUnited States - General$2HILCC 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$yTo 1783 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$xEnglish influences 608 $aElectronic books.$2lcsh 615 7$aRegions & Countries - Americas 615 7$aHistory & Archaeology 615 7$aUnited States - General 676 $a973 700 $aFischer$b David Hackett$f1935-$0889326 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 801 2$bStDuBDSZ 801 2$bUkPrAHLS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790054003321 996 $aAlbion's seed$93780774 997 $aUNINA
