This comprehensive survey of British colonial governors' houses and buildings used as state houses or capitols in the North American colonies begins with the founding of the Virginia Colony and ends with American independence.

This book presents a thorough discussion of the 1903-1913 public debate involving the self-governing dominions of the British Empire, and the role that a number of renowned journalists of the quality press played in that dialogue. The work of such writers as James Louis Garvin, John St. Loe Strachey, and John Alfred Spender is examined in relation to the contemporary issues of tariff reform, South African reconstruction, and imperial unity. Among the other topics addressed are the roles of the quality press in Edwardian public debate and the public press in political journalism.
