This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of a New England Town The interest that attached to the articles on old-time Meriden by Faith (mrs. Frances A. Breckenridge), as printed originally in Tfie Meriden Daily journal, led to the belief that published in book form they would prove entertaining, not only to present and former Meriden people, but to the readers of New England generally; for Meriden as described in Faith's quaint way in the following chapters, is typical of the New England villages of the first and second quarters of the century. To the newspaper articles have been added many chapters on subjects that cannot fail to engage the pleasant attention of all who would like to know What rural New England was like half a century and more ago. One great value that the work has is the absolutely correct historical information that it contains. What is told here is authenticated by carefully preserved family records, and personal knowledge of the author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize Winner: “A meticulous and remarkably detailed account of the early government and social organization of the town of Sudbury, Massachusetts.” —Time In addition to drawing on local records from Sudbury, Massachusetts, the author of this classic work, which won the Pulitzer Prize in History, traced the town’s early families back to England to create an outstanding portrait of a colonial settlement in the seventeenth century. He looks at the various individuals who formed this new society; how institutions and government took shape; what changed—or didn’t—in the movement from the Old World to the New; and how those from different local cultures adjusted, adapted, competed, and cooperated to plant the seeds of what would become, in the century to follow, a commonwealth of the United States of America. “An important and interesting book . . . to the student of institutions, even to the sociologist, as well as to the historian.” —The New England Quarterly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historic Towns of New England I had planned in the months that followed to publish a souvenir volume containing the more important addresses made by distinguished men on the historic significance of the places visited; but as the happy experience receded into the past a larger thought laid hold of me. Why not sometime in the infrequent leisure of a busy minister's life edit a series of volumes on American Historic T owns 9 Kingsley's novels were written amid parish duties, and Dr. Mccook has found time, amid exacting ministerial duties, to make perhaps the most searching study ever made by an American of the habits of spiders. Medical experts agree concerning the value of a wholesome avoca tion to the man who takes his vocation seri ously; and congregations are quick to give ear to the earnest preacher whose sermons be tray a large outlook on life.
