Description - The Journal of John Winthrop, 1630-1649 by John Winthrop
The journal of Governor John Winthrop, one of the key documents of early New England history, records the first two crucial decades of the Bay Colony. Writing in a precise expository style, Winthrop details the myriad religious and political problems of the new settlement. The modernized abridgment incorporates about 40 percent of the text and includes a copy of Winthrop's sermon, "A Model of Christian Charity." This abridged edition, complete with introduction and annotations, also modernizes the governor's spelling and punctuation.
