This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

The Germans in Colonial Times Lucy Forney Bittinger Books

This is a thorough study of German settlements in the colonies. The chapter titles are "Conditions in Germany which led to emigration","Penn's visit to Germany", "Germantown", "The Labadists in Maryland", "The Women in the Wilderness", "German Valley, New Jersey", "Kocherthal's colony", "The Great Exodus of the Palatines", "Pequae and the Mennonites", and twelve others.
I found the book helpful in understanding the conditions that led up to the exodus of so many Germany in the mid 1700's, and in catching the flavor of some of the early Pennsylvania Dutch communities. It has a good surname index, which was a plus for me.

The Germans in Colonial Times Lucy Forney Bittinger Books Reviews


I had a very difficult time getting thru this book, and actually ended up skim-reading large portions. The beginning was pretty good as it described conditions in Europe that encouraged German migration to the colonies. And the last portion of the book describing the German participation in the Revolution was also interesting. But large portions of the middle of the book were basically just histories of the various German religious sects, who led them, what they believed in and what happened to them. I personally found that to be boring, thus the skim-reading. I do agree with the first reviewer, tho; the index of names is quite thorough.
