Discover the groundbreaking insights in 'Credit Nation,' where acclaimed historian Claire Priest unveils how early American colonists established the cornerstone of American capitalism through innovative credit practices. This BRAND NEW edition, published by Princeton University Press in 2021, offers an in-depth analysis of how colonial laws prioritized access to credit, setting the United States apart from other nations. Explore the intricate ways in which these historical policies influenced property laws and shaped the legal framework of the burgeoning nation.Credit Nation examines the radical departure of the British Parliament from traditional English law, which typically shielded land and inheritance. Instead, laws were enacted that favored creditors, categorizing land and slaves as financial instruments to satisfy debts. Priest meticulously illustrates how local legal institutions emerged, enabling citizens to leverage their assets for credit expansion. This fascinating narrative connects the dots between the exploitation of credit backed by slave ownership and the tragic rise of slavery that persisted through the Civil War.
Gain a new perspective on American economic history and understand how credit markets and liquidity became essential from the very beginning. Delve into the legal contexts that fueled political movements such as the Stamp Act crisis, illuminating the critical role financial systems played in America’s founding. 'Credit Nation' is not just a history lesson; it is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the roots of capitalism in early America and the profound impact of credit on society.

Soft and convenient, but slightly thin
I bought these disposable napkins for family dinners and small gatherings, and overall they’ve been very useful. They’re soft enough to feel comfortable while still absorbing spills and messes fairly well. I also like that the size is practical for everyday meals and snacks, and the stack fits neatly on the table without taking up much space. The napkins separate easily too, which is convenient when guests are around. However, they are a little thinner than I expected, so sometimes I end up using two for bigger spills. Still, they work well for regular use and are a convenient option to keep around the kitchen and dining area.

Basic everyday napkins but very thin
These are about as basic as paper napkins get. They work fine for everyday meals and quick cleanup, but they are definitely on the thinner side.
You usually end up needing more than one for messier foods or larger spills because they don’t feel especially absorbent or heavy-duty.
That said, the large count is convenient for everyday household use, cookouts, lunch packing, or casual gatherings where you go through napkins quickly.
Overall they’re functional budget napkins, just nothing particularly thick or special.

Nice and sturdy!
Size: 300 Count
This was our first time to try the Amazon Basics Everyday Plates. I typically purchase paper plates in bulk from a big box club store. These are just as good, if not better! They are thick and sturdy, and hold up well. The price point it also better!
My only negative is the design on the plate isn’t the most appealing. I think it’d be better if the design was limited to just being on the edge, and not across the entire plate.
