November 24, 1892 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents information about the book "Three Episodes of Massachusetts History: The Settlement of Boston Bay; The Antinomian Controversy; A Study of Church and Town Government," by Charles Francis Adams. The centre of the historic movement is taken by Adams from the church and town of Quincy, or perhaps it should be said that it is taken from Mount Wollaston. As Quincy is a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts, it was natural that the history of the former should be told in connection with the early settlement of the latter. Adams says that it is in the towns and town records of Massachusetts that the American historical unit is to be sought.
