Synopsis

Colonial Mobile: An Historical Study is a book written by Peter J. Hamilton that explores the history of Mobile, Alabama during the colonial period. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the city's founding, growth, and development from its earliest days as a French settlement to its eventual incorporation into the United States. The author examines the political, social, and economic factors that shaped Mobile's history, including the city's role as a center of trade and commerce, its relationship with neighboring Native American tribes, and its involvement in the American Revolution. The book also delves into the lives of the city's inhabitants, including the French and Spanish colonizers, African slaves, and Native Americans who called Mobile home. Through extensive research and analysis, Hamilton presents a detailed and engaging portrait of Mobile's colonial past that is sure to appeal to anyone interested in the history of the American South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
