| Publisher Description: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the Saloutos Prize of the Immigration History Society Bailyn's Pulitzer Prize-winning book uses an emigration roster that lists every person officially known to have left Britain for America from December 1773 to March 1776 to reconstruct the lives and motives of those who emigrated to the New World. Voyagers to the West is a superb book. . . . It should be equally admired by and equally attractive to the general reader as to the professional historian.--R.C. Simmons, Journal of American Studies |
