Description

As colonists made their strategy to New England within the early seventeenth century, they was hoping their efforts would stand as a “citty upon a hill.” Living the godly life preached by John Winthrop would have proved difficult even had these puritans inhabited the colonies by myself, but this was once now not the case: this new landscape included colonists from Europe, indigenous Americans, and enslaved Africans. In Race and Redemption in Puritan New England, Richard A. Bailey investigates the ways in which colonial New Englanders used, constructed, and re-constructed their puritanism to make sense in their new realities. As they did so, they created more than a tenuous existence together. Additionally they constructed race out of the non secular freedom of puritanism.
