Book Synopsis Hurricanes and Society in the British Greater Caribbean, 1624–1783 by : Matthew Mulcahy
Download or read book Hurricanes and Society in the British Greater Caribbean, 1624–1783 written by Matthew Mulcahy and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2008-08-11 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hurricanes created unique challenges for the colonists in the British Greater Caribbean during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. These storms were entirely new to European settlers and quickly became the most feared part of their physical environment, destroying staple crops and provisions, leveling plantations and towns, disrupting shipping and trade, and resulting in major economic losses for planters and widespread privation for slaves. In this study, Matthew Mulcahy examines how colonists made sense of hurricanes, how they recovered from them, and the role of the storms in shaping the development of the region's colonial settlements. Hurricanes and Society in the British Greater Caribbean, 1624–1783 provides a useful new perspective on several topics including colonial science, the plantation economy, slavery, and public and private charity. By integrating the West Indies into the larger story of British Atlantic colonization, Mulcahy's work contributes to early American history, Atlantic history, environmental history, and the growing field of disaster studies.

Download or read book West Indian Hurricanes (Classic Reprint) written by E. B. Garriott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from West Indian Hurricanes The committee on meteorology of the institute, acting in conjunction with a similar committee from the American Philosophical Society, organized and equipped stations throughout the State and began the collection and preservation of data concerning weather phenomena. This work, it must be remembered, was carried on without the aid of the telegraph; but it was so thoroughly done that from the data thus gathered was formulated a theory of storms which is substantially the same as that which is generally accepted to-day. This work was carried on for a number of years by the Franklin Institute; in fact until, through the efforts of Prof. Joseph Henry, of the Smithsonian Institution, the attention of the Government was drawn to the matter. The interest thus aroused finally resulted in the organization of the Weather Bureau as it exists to-day.

Book Synopsis Sea of Storms by : Stuart B. Schwartz
Download or read book Sea of Storms written by Stuart B. Schwartz and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A panoramic social history of hurricanes in the Caribbean The diverse cultures of the Caribbean have been shaped as much by hurricanes as they have by diplomacy, commerce, or the legacy of colonial rule. In this panoramic work of social history, Stuart Schwartz examines how Caribbean societies have responded to the dangers of hurricanes, and how these destructive storms have influenced the region's history, from the rise of plantations, to slavery and its abolition, to migrations, racial conflict, and war. Taking readers from the voyages of Columbus to the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, Schwartz looks at the ethical, political, and economic challenges that hurricanes posed to the Caribbean’s indigenous populations and the different European peoples who ventured to the New World to exploit its riches. He describes how the United States provided the model for responding to environmental threats when it emerged as a major power and began to exert its influence over the Caribbean in the nineteenth century, and how the region’s governments came to assume greater responsibilities for prevention and relief, efforts that by the end of the twentieth century were being questioned by free-market neoliberals. Schwartz sheds light on catastrophes like Katrina by framing them within a long and contentious history of human interaction with the natural world. Spanning more than five centuries and drawing on extensive archival research in Europe and the Americas, Sea of Storms emphasizes the continuing role of race, social inequality, and economic ideology in the shaping of our responses to natural disaster.
