America at 1750: A Social Portrait Book

This was the last of Richard Hofstadter's books. It was not completed at the time of his death. However, Alfred A. Knopf decided it was well worth publishing what chapters had been written. Some excellent insights are here, but some topics are omitted - perhaps to have been included in the final work. The rivalry between European imperial powers - Spain, France, and England - and their attempts to gain hegemony over Indigenous Americans and the fur trade is one of the missing topics. Relations between colonial Americans and indigenous nations, in general, are missing as well. If you want a far more complete history see Colin Calloway's book.
