'Englishmen Transplanted': The English Colonization of Barbados 1627-1660
Gragg, Larry (, Professor of History, University of Missouri-Rolla)
'Englishmen Transplanted' challenges the widely accepted view of seventeenth-century Barbados planters as reckless fortune seekers who failed to create a viable society in the tropics. Rather, it argues they were settlers eager to transplant what was familiar to them: political and religious institutions, the nuclear family, and traditional views about social order, housing, and apparel.
