Primary Sources of Political Systems - Colonialism: A Primary Source Analysis

Colonies living under foreign rule share two indignities: colonizers establish power over less powerful people, and they take more than they return to their colonies. This fascinating book looks at the history of colonialism from earliest civilization through the twentieth century--from the Huns in Mongolia to the Greeks in the Mediterranean Sea, to the British in Colonial America--discussing why it developed, the quintessential colonial powers, and how the colonies broke from their mother countries. Primary source images and transcripts of primary source documents help readers understand why this political system developed and why it fell.Philip Wolny is the author of 'Primary Sources of Political Systems - Colonialism: A Primary Source Analysis', published 2003 under ISBN 9780823945160 and ISBN 0823945162.
