After an exhaustive analysis of over 1,200 seditious speech cases in every colonial American court that existed before 1700, Eldridge (history, Widener U., Chester, Pennsylvania) refutes the common belief that Americans did not enjoy free speech until the 18th century. He traces the growing leniency during the 17th century, and attributes it to a combination of tumult and social development, which made people more willing to criticize authorities, and the authorities less able to prevent criticism. The index is superbly detailed. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The odyssey of Thomas Holme, William Penn's first surveyor general, began when Holme enrolled in the war against Charles I and proceeded through England, and, finally, to William Penn's Province of PA. He was a captain in Cromwell's army, a Quaker minister, author, and administrator, and landholder and merchant. It was from this life that William Penn drafted him to be the first surveyor general of his province. There he laid out the city of Phila., oversaw the surveying and settlement of southeastern PA, and participated in the formation of the gov't. that has been called the protopye of the gov't. of the U.S. Throughout the struggles of the first dozen years of PA he was a partisan and defender of the interests of William Penn.
