Civil Tongues and Polite Letters in British America - Published by the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture and the University of North Carolina Press New edition

Seeking to recover the disappeared world of ""belle lettres"", this book examines the various ""texts"" of 18th-century British America - conversations, letters, newpapers, and privately circulated manuscripts. It reconstructs the discourse of civility that shaped the elite society of the time.
