For Virginia the economic side has been fully presented by Philip A. Bruce in his _Economic History of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century_ (2 vols., 1896). The social side during the period of the present volume has not been thoroughly covered by any modern writer. For Maryland no detailed statement can be found, but much valuable information is contained in Newton D. Mereness, _Maryland as a Proprietary Province_ (1901). For New England the social and economic status is fully presented by William B. Weeden, _Economic and Social History of New England_ (2 vols., 1891). John G. Palfrey, _History of New England_ (4 vols.), has also several valuable chapters on the subject. Edward Eggleston, _Beginners of a Nation_ (1897) and _Transit of Civilization_ (1900) deal very appreciatively with social elements and conditions.
