Produktbeschreibung
Follow the changing fortunes of an early American family living through tumultuous times.The Cary family of Chelsea, Massachusetts, prospered as plantation owners and managers for nearly two decades in the West Indies before the Grenada slave revolts of 1795-1796 upended the sugar trade. Sarah Gray Cary used her quick intelligence and astute judgment to help her family adapt to their shifting fortunes. From Samuel Cary's departure from Boston to St. Kitts in 1764 to the second generation's search for trade throughout the West Indies, Susan Clair Imbarrato tells the compelling story of the Cary family from prosperity and crisis to renewal.Drawing on a wealth of archival material, this engaging book describes how Sarah Cary managed households in both Grenada and Chelsea while raising thirteen children. In particular, Imbarrato examines Sarah's correspondence with her sons Samuel and Lucius, in which they address family matters, share opinions on political and social events, discuss literature and philosophy, and speculate about business.Sarah Gray Cary from Boston to Grenada offers a rare female perspective on colonial America and Caribbean plantation life and provides a unique view of a seminal period of early American history.
