The author combines a dual specialization in the fields of English (Teaching of English as a Foreign Language) and American Culture. He has been lecturing on U.S. Civilization and the Basic Skills ever since graduation in 1986. He holds a PhD in American Studies from Britain with a long teaching experience in different countries of the world. His research interests include the Basic Skills, American Studies and U.S-Arab relations. This reader surveys the development of the English Empire in America from the settlement of Virginia in 1607 to Georgia in 1733. It covers the topics as detailed hereafter. Chapter One reviews the creation of the Thirteen colonies. Chapter Two describes the American geographical landscape and its environmental diversity. Chapter Three focuses on the Indians tribes and their culture. Chapter Four examines the colonization of the land from the Atlantic through the Pacific Coast and its impact on the Indian population. Chapter Five discusses the rise of the English society in the New World and its relations with the Mother Country. In a nutshell, when the seventeenth century began, there was an American Indian nation living along the Atlantic coastline, but at the century’s end, an English community was emerging in the area bearing the seeds of the country that became the United States of America in 1776.
