Focusing on the lives of nearly seven-hundred emigrants, the narrative examines such topics as the settlers' motives for leaving England, their experience of the voyage, their patterns of settlement in the New World, and their search for economic security in a new land. The descendants of the founders erected the story of their 'great' migration into early British America's only effective foundation myth - a record of achievement that succeeding generations could never match. Rich in detail and insight, this exploration of New England's founding examines both the lives of ordinary people and the transcendent meanings that those lives ultimately acquired.ACLS Humanities E-Book.ImmigrantsNew EnglandHistory17th centuryPuritansNew EnglandHistory17th centuryNew EnglandCivilization17th centuryEnglandEmigration and immigrationHistory17th centuryNew EnglandEmigration and immigrationHistory17th centuryImmigrantsHistoryPuritansHistory974.02Anderson Virginia DeJohn1016636UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996247970603316New England's generation2379529UNISA
