In the eye of all trade: Bermuda, Bermudians, and the maritime Atlantic world, 1680-1783 (1st edition.)

This title recovers a mariner's view of early America as seen through the eyes of Bermuda's seafarers.

A social history of 18th century Bermuda, it profiles how one intensively maritime community capitalised on its position 'in the eye of all trade'.

The book takes readers aboard small Bermudian sloops and follows white and enslaved sailors as they shuttled cargoes between ports, raked salt, harvested timber, salvaged shipwrecks, hunted whales, captured prizes, and smuggled contraband in an expansive maritime sphere spanning Great Britain's North American and Caribbean colonies.
