David Hume and Eighteenth-Century America
Author:  Mark G. Spencer
Published:  2005
Medium: Book         Publisher:  Boydell & Brewer Ltd
This book explores the reception of David Hume's political thought in eighteenth-century America. It presents a challenge to standard interpretations that assume Hume's thought had little influence in early America. Eighteenth-century Americans are often supposed to have ignored Hume's philosophical writings and to have rejected entirely Hume's "Tory" History of England.   hardback   ISBN 978-1-580-46118-4
