The English Royal Family of America, from Jamestown to the American Revolution

Jefferson, NC: McFarland & Company, Inc, 2003. Paper Covered Boards. Near Fine. Paper Covered Boards. "For about a century and a half after they arrived from England, America's first permanent colonists considered themselves to be English. They were proud of their heritage and loyal to their country. England's royal family truly was the royal family of America - until the era of the American Revolution, when the colonies fought for their independence from England and its rulers. Elizabeth I, James I, Charles I, Charles II, James II, William III and Mary II, Anne, George I, George II, and George III - the English royals who were also the royals of (truncated) early America - are all covered in this work. It begins with Queen Elizabeth I, during whose rule Sir Walter Ralegh established his settlements in America, and ends with King George III, ruler of England when the American Revolution began. A biographical sketch is provided fro each royal and his or her spouse and legitimate children. Mistresses and illegitimate children are noted when known" (rear cover).
