SUGGESTIONS TO THE TEACHER
In this period the growing difficulties between England and the colonies can be traced--especially in commercial affairs and in governmental inst.i.tutions. Thus many of the causes of the Revolution may be brought out as well as the difficulties in the way of colonial union. This may be emphasized by noting the difference between the English and French colonies.
