Description
Key Features
Poseidon's Curse examines British naval impressment as a central cause of American Revolutionary discontent and colonial resistance.
Christopher P. Magra analyses how impressment harmed mariners' earning potential and occupational mobility across the Atlantic.
The book interprets the American Revolution from an Atlantic Ocean perspective, emphasising maritime labour and seafaring communities.
Cambridge University Press publication provides authoritative scholarship on the relationship between naval impressment and imperial decline.
Magra traces how resentment towards British impressment policies translated into revolutionary sentiment among colonists and seafarers.
