Questions 1-12
The technology of the North American
colonies did not differ strikingly from that of
Europe, but in one respect, the colonists enjoyed a
great advantage. Especially by comparison with
Britain, Americans had a wonderfully plentiful
supply of wood.
The first colonists did not, as many people
imagine, find an entire continent covered by a
climax forest. Even along the Atlantic seaboard, the
forest was broken at many points. Nevertheless, all
sorts of fine trees abounded, and through the early
colonial period, those who pushed westward
encountered new forests. By the end of the colonial
ere, the price of wood had risen slightly in eastern
cities, but wood was still extremely abundant.
The availability of wood brought
advantages that have seldom been appreciated.
Wood was a foundation of the economy. Houses
and all manner of buildings were made of wood to
a degree unknown in Britain. Secondly, wood was
used as a fuel for heating and cooking. Thirdly, it
was used as the source of important industrial
compounds, such as potash, an industrial alkali
charcoal, a component of gunpowder; and tannic
acid, used for tanning leather.
The supply of wood conferred advantages but
had some negative aspects as well. Iron at that time
was produced by heating iron ore with charcoal.
Because Britain was so stripped of trees, she was
unable to exploit her rich iron mines. But the
American colonies had both iron ore and wood;
iron production was encouraged and became
successful. However, when Britain developed coke
smelting, the colonies did not follow suit because
they had plenty of wood and besides, charcoal iron
was stronger than coke iron. Coke smelting led to
technological innovations and was linked to the
emergence of the industrial Revolution. In the early
nineteenth century, the former colonies lagged
behind Britain industrial development because
their supply of wood led them to cling to charcoal
iron.
