This is the fourth and final volume in  Mr      Coldham's series "
The Complete Book of Emigrants"
Voluntary emigration      from the British Isles went into a steep decline after the year 1750, only      to rise again sharply from 1770 and to reach epidemic proportions by 1773, a      year of great economic hardship in Britain. Involuntary emigration, on the      other hand, the forced transportation of criminals of almost every degree,      rose sharply during the period, from a yearly total of 500 in 1750 to 1,000      in 1774-75. The records drawn on, in addition to the usual sources, include      port books, plantation apprenticeship bindings, and treasury records of      emigrants departing from English ports. Now that it is completed, Mr.      Coldham's remarkable achievement identifies about 100,000 English emigrants      to colonial America from virtually every reference that can be found in      England.
