The Founding of New England - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

First published in 1921 and awarded the Pulitzer Prize for History, The Founding of New England is James Truslow Adams's landmark account of the region that shaped a nation. Moving from the earliest English settlements through the turbulent seventeenth century, Adams traces the economic ambitions, religious convictions, and political struggles of the Puritan colonies with unflinching clarity. Rather than romanticizing the Pilgrim fathers, he examines the realities of colonial life and lays the groundwork for his celebrated New England trilogy from the historian who would later coin the phrase 'the American Dream.'
