Record #:
21732
Abstract:
This article examines the late North Carolina potter Jacob Meyer with particular focus on his apprenticeship and the apprenticeship system created by the colony of North Carolina with regards to its similarities to the Moravian system of mutual responsibility. While discussing Meyer's apprenticeship experience, the deficiencies of the master-apprentice relationship of second-generation Moravian settlers in North Carolina are revealed.
