| Sommario/riassunto: | "Money and fiscal policy precipitated many of the most significant political conflicts between England and the American colonies in the seventeenth century. Competition over silver currency in particular provoked a transatlantic crisis in the 1670s and 1680s, ameliorated only with the onset of a new imperial-colonial bargain in the 1690s"-- |
