Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A Patriarch and His Family in the Early Republic: The Papers of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, 1782-1832 concludes the seven-volume annotated edition inaugurated in 2001 by the publication of Dear Papa, Dear Charley: The Peregrinations of a Revolutionary Aristocrat. The post-Revolutionary story of the only Roman Catholic and last surviving signer of the American Declaration of Independence is situated in the broader Atlantic world. It offers readers insight into the lives of Carroll and his family, as well as the enslaved and free people with whom they interacted. Published in the year that the United States celebrates the 250th anniversary of its founding, the letters, journals, inventories, and other documents that comprise the four volumes illustrate this critical period in the early republic's history.
