Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Historical View of the First Planters of New-England The following Historical Sketches were first written for "The Connecticut Evangelical Magazine," and-published in that work in twenty successive Numbers, They were written at the desire of the Rev, Br. Strong, of Hartford, the Editor of the Magazine; and without any expectation that they would ever he presented to the public in any other form. After the completion of the work, the advice of a number of Gentlemen, whose opinions were most deserving of regard, induced the author to consent to its re-publication, in the present form. As this History was written for a Religious publication, the Reader will not be disappointed to find a turn of composition, conformable to that design. The Religious sentiments and practices of the Fathers of Mew-England, having constituted, an essential part of their character, and being ingrafted in all their Civil Institutions, become a very interesting portion of their history. This part of their character, has not been so fully presented to view by historians, whose design has been principally confined to political transactions as many other things of much less value. The pride of innovation, as well as irreligion and vice, has ever affected to ridicule the Christian character of the Founders of the New-England States.
