Daily Life in Colonial America

By Don Nardo

This informative edition covers daily life in Colonial America. Author Don Nardo brings the day-to-day activities of an era long gone to the forefront of this book as readers learn about topics such as the basic work of building and furnishing a home, the roles men and women played in raising and sustaining a family, and the functions of family and children within the community. Through the details of everyday existence, readers will gain a real understanding of how Colonial communities provided education, medical care and governance, developed labor-saving technologies, and enjoyed their hours of leisure.
