dc.description.abstract	A bibliography to promote the study of Colonial American postal service in this library. Our focus is on the European settlements that became the United States of America. The annotations are to introduce the subject, and to assist one in determining the usefulness of a work. An introduction to Colonial postal affairs may include sources on currency, transportation, literacy, roads, availability of paper and inks, printers and newspapers, and related subjects. Fortunately, many of these subjects are covered by sources in this library.	en_US
