"Lachenicht’s edited collection examines the relationship between Europe and the Atlantic World during the early modern period. In an attempt to balance out the plethora of studies that center on American, British, Spanish, French, and Dutch impacts in the Caribbean, the essays in this volume focus on European regions and peoples that at first glance seem to have had little impact and interaction with the Atlantic World. . . . The collection makes a strong case that different 'Atlantic Worlds' existed in the minds of Europeans, but that by the mid-eighteenth century a more stable and acknowledged understanding of the region emerged. . . . By moving the lens to lesser-known actors, Lachenicht has provided a fuller picture of the Atlantic World as a field of study and analysis. . . . Highly recommended."
