About This Item
New Haven: Yale U. P., 1998. 1st edition. As New. octavo. dust jacket xi + 397pp., notes, appendix, index, ÔA sailing ship that becomes stalled with its bow to the wind is said to be "in irons." In this examination of America's Revolutionary War economy, the phrase is an apt metaphor for the inability of that economy to free itself from the constraints of Britain's navy. Investigates the influence of Britain's navy on the American revolutionary economy, particularly its agricultural sector, and the damage that Britain inflicted by seizing major colonial centres and denying Americans access to overseas markets.
