Reviews

masterful survey * Trevor Burnard, Journal of American Studies * an important book, and its findings possess a broad significance for ideas about the character and nature of the eighteenth-century British empire and the Atlantic world. Given the identity of the author and subject-matter, it will almost certainly find a wide readership; it deserves to do so. * Bob Harris, English Historical Review * Marshall is the pre-eminent historian of the British empire in the late eighteenth century and this book is the work of a master who remains at the top of his game. Scholars will appreciate it for its remarkable erudition and casual readers for an accessibility that one doesn't usually associate with erudition. Any reader will appreciate its argumentative clarity ... His book is a model of approachable scholarship that deserves a broader readership on both sides of the Atlantic than most historical monographs are apt to get. * Philip Harling, History * this publication makes for a very thoughtful and engaging read ... I thoroughly recommend Remaking the British Atlantic. * Simon Hill, The British Scholar Society * Marshall's Remaking the British Atlantic is a profoundly important book that should become the standard text for understanding Anglo-American relations after the Revolution. * T. H. Breen, Times Literary Supplement *
