Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Collections Concerning the Early History of the Founders of New Plymouth: The First Colonists of New England Governor Hutchinson, writing in 1767, when he is about to give an account of the arrival of the first company of English emigrants on the shores of New England, at the point where is now the town of New Plymouth, remarks, that "the settlement of this colony occasioned the settlement of Massachusetts Bay, which was the source of all the other colonies in New England. Virginia was in a dying state, and seemed to revive and flourish from the example of New England;" he further says: "I am not preserving from oblivion the names of heroes whose chief merit is the overthrow of cities, provinces, and empires, but the names of the founders of a flourishing town and colony, if not of the whole British Empire in America." As time passed on, the interest about these fathers of Anglo-American race has gathered strength. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
