Inhalt:
This publication centres imperial trade as a driving force in the revolutionary Atlantic, arguing that commercial factors preceded and conditioned political change. At the crux of these transformations was the 'entrepôt,' Saint-Domingue whose economy grew dramatically as a direct consequence of the American Revolution and the French-American alliance.
