The Founding Of New England

The Founding of New England is a comprehensive historical account of the establishment of the New England colonies in the 17th century. Written by James Truslow Adams, a prominent American historian, the book covers the political, social, and economic factors that led to the colonization of the region by the English, as well as the challenges they faced in building their communities. Adams begins by examining the religious motivations behind the colonization, particularly the desire of the Puritans to establish a society based on their strict interpretation of Christianity. He then delves into the economic factors that played a role, such as the search for new markets and resources for England. The book also explores the interactions between the English settlers and the Native American tribes they encountered, including the conflicts that arose from their differing beliefs and ways of life. Adams also discusses the political structures that emerged in the colonies, including the establishment of representative government and the tensions that arose between the colonies and the British Crown. Overall, The Founding of New England provides a detailed and engaging account of the early years of English colonization in America, shedding light on the complex factors that shaped the region's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
