Few realize how modern are the furnishings and comforts of our present-day houses and how different was the home life of our ancestors.

Download or read book The Massachusetts Bay Colony The Puritans Arrive from England written by Bonnie Hinman and published by Mitchell Lane Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-12-23 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Winthrop's plan for "the Citty upon a Hill" was grand and based on noble motives. He wanted a place where he and other Puritans could live and prosper without religious persecution. That place was the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Winthrop and his fellow Puritans landed in Massachusetts Bay in 1630. Soon they had organized a government, started towns, and were sending goods back to England. Decades later, Boston, Massachusetts, was a hotbed of radical activity during the years before the Revolutionary War. The war started with the battles of Lexington and Concord in the Massachusetts countryside not far from Boston. The freedom that came for America after that struggle went far toward achieving the dream of John Winthrop. The United States of America became a sort of "citty upon a hill," where all men and women had the right to live peacefully without persecution.
