The Atlantic Imperial Constitution explores the relationship between the English Crown and the Atlantic colonial peripheries under the early Stuarts. Arguing against the common belief that the English government sat out the first generation of Atlantic activities, Ken MacMillan demonstrates that the king, his Privy Council, and various associated bodies became involved in the Atlantic enterprise when the king’s sovereignty, the rights of his subjects, or the needs of state were at stake. From 1606 onward, Crown intervention in Atlantic affairs reflected a historically based, ideologically principled, and broadly consistent system of imperial governance that set precedents for the relationship between center and periphery into the eighteenth century.
