The book explores the early years of British colonialism, from the late 16th century to the mid-17th century. Beer examines the political, economic, and social factors that led to the establishment of British colonies in North America and the Caribbean. He also analyzes the early interactions between the British colonizers and the indigenous populations, as well as the conflicts that arose between the colonizers themselves. Beer's book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the early attempts at colonization by the British, including the failed Roanoke colony and the successful settlement of Jamestown. Beer examines the motivations of the colonizers, the challenges they faced, and the impact of these early colonies on British society. The second part of the book looks at the development of the British colonial system in the 17th century. Beer discusses the growth of the sugar trade in the Caribbean, the rise of slavery, and the emergence of a distinct British colonial identity. He also examines the role of the British government in colonial affairs, including the establishment of the Board of Trade and the Navigation Acts. Overall, The Origins Of The British Colonial System, 1578-1660 provides a detailed and comprehensive analysis of the early years of British colonialism. Beer's research is based on extensive primary sources, including government documents, letters, and diaries.
