Communication

COMMUNICATION IN COLONIAL AMERICA.
In Colonial times, the communication was very different than our times because the Native Americans were controlled by England. Colonial communication was personal and many times verbal, via the grapevine (this means when people are talking about something, but is unofficial information). Another type of colonial communication were letters. This worked well when friends were traveling, and they transported these letters to their destination. The first printing press was established in 1638, it was supervised by Harvard College and broadsides religious work, and practical books were created as well as almanacs and law books. It was not until a century after the first permanent American settlement that regular newspapers existed in Colonial America. The first newspaper in Connecticut was the Connecticut Gazette in 1755. The Connecticut Courant was established in 1764. It is now named the Hartford Courant and has become the longest continuosly published newspaper in the United States of America.
