About this title

Synopsis

Explore the history behind South Carolina and Georgia’s earliest colonies and how they grew from tentative settlements to established societies.

This edition draws from Hewatt’s detailed account of the rise and progress of these British plantations, offering a window into the people, governance, and conflicts that shaped the region. Read about the challenges, reforms, and key figures that steered the course of early colonial life.

From foundational laws and religious settlement to the struggles for political control, the narrative traces how communities formed, adapted, and fought to secure their place in a growing empire. You’ll see how laws, charters, and local leadership influenced everyday life, trade, and relations with Indigenous peoples.

• Brightly presented historical overview of governance, lawmaking, and colonial administration
• Insights into religious establishment, toleration, and community life in the early period
• Profiles of governors, assemblies, and the evolving structure of colonial society
• Context for how the colonies interacted with broader English imperial policy

Ideal for readers of early American history seeking a richly documented account of the founding years and the forces that shaped the Carolina settlements.
