This concise methodological guide is geared to undergraduates making the transition between descriptive and analytical work. Many aspects of study and writing are explored: posing a general political problem, active reading, approaches to research, textual analysis, the linking of ideas and data, building an argument, sourcing styles in English and French, publishing outlets and book reviews. An indispensable tool for beginning students and for those revisiting the field.
The first comprehensive examination of how the Charter influences political choices on social policy.
John White (ca. 1602-1673) was baptized in South Petherton, Somerset, England. He married Joan (1606-1654), daughter of Richard and Maudlin Staple-Cooke West, 1627 in Drayton Parish, Somerset. They lived in Drayton for awhile with their two oldest sons before immigrating to Salem, Mass. in 1639. They later moved to Wenham and to Lancaster. They were the parents of nine known children. Five children were born in England, the rest in Massachusetts. One son, Thomas, settled in Wenham, and another son, Josiah, in his estate in Lancaster. Descendants live in Massachusetts, New York, New Hampshire, Ohio, Illinois, Maine, Vermont, Canada and elsewhere.
Matthew Grant (1601-1681) and his family emigrated from England to Dorchester, Massachusetts in 1630, and in 1635 moved to Windsor, Connecticut. He married twice (once in England, once in Windsor). Descendants lived throughout the United States and elsewhere. Includes genealogy of President Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885).

Guns may be as American as apple pie, but what does it mean to own a gun north of the 49th parallel? While policy battles over gun control are often associated with American politics, debates about gun control are raging in Canada, prompting Canadian gun owners to transition from hobbyists to advocates. In Targeted, political scientist Noah S. Schwartz provides an insider’s perspective on gun culture in Canada, unpacking the differences between Canadian and American gun activism. He explores how Canadians interpret the rising pro-gun movement in the country, its self-perception, its goals, and the strategies and funding sources that sustain it. Arguing that a distinct pro-gun culture is emerging in Canada, Targeted highlights how the demands of the movement are closely linked to significant divisions in Canadian politics, such as the rural-urban divide and western alienation. Rather than viewing gun ownership as an unassailable constitutional right, the book reveals how Canadian gun owners frame their demands as a call for fair treatment from their leaders.
