Archives Of Maryland LXVI: Proceedings Of The Provincial Court Of Maryland 1675-1677 gathers colonial court records from the colony's highest tribunal at a tense moment in colonial America 1670s. Edited by Elizabeth Merritt from primary source transcripts, this historical document collection preserves the authentic language, rhythms and concerns of provincial court cases, from everyday disputes to matters of high politics. The result is a vivid cross-section of Maryland legal history and the colonial justice system, revealing how law, power and community intertwined on the early American frontier. First issued among the Maryland Historical Society publications as part of the renowned Archives of Maryland, this volume stands as a cornerstone for anyone studying colonial American legal records. It serves as a dependable reference for historians and an illuminating tool for research for genealogists tracing families, landholdings and neighbourhoods across the province. Students of law, social and political history, and readers who simply enjoy immersing themselves in the textures of the past, gain direct access to voices otherwise lost. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations.
