Preparatory reading for Mason & Dixon

[Alexei du Périer]

Hello chaps,

I am planning on reading *Mason & Dixon* soon and would like to know
whether there are any books I ought to read before starting in order to be
familiar with the historical context/figures discussed etc.

I have never studied American history so don't know much about pre-1776
stuff.

Cheers.
