520 1 |a "The people of the American colonies had an advanced understanding of the science and technology of agriculture, surveying, architecture, and even manufacturing. Although Europeans considered the colonies a crude backwater, in the realm of "natural philosophy" - what we call science - colonial figures such as Benjamin Franklin were admired and respected in the scientific capitals of Europe. This book covers all aspects of how science and technology impacted the everyday life of Americans of all classes and cultures."--BOOK JACKET.
