Building a New Jerusalem - John Davenport, a Puritan in Three Worlds

Zusammenfassung The life of John Davenport! who co-founded the colony of New Haven! has long been overshadowed by his reputation as the most draconian of all Puritan leaders in New England - a reputation he earned due to his opposition to many of the changes that were transforming New England in the post-Restoration era. This book tells his story.
