Adam's Sons is a historical novel written by Arthur Garfield Learned and published in 1906. The story is set in the 17th century and follows the lives of two brothers, John and Edward, who are the sons of Adam Winthrop, a wealthy merchant and politician in colonial Massachusetts. As the story unfolds, the brothers become embroiled in the political and religious turmoil of the time, including conflicts between the Puritan colonists and the Native American tribes, as well as tensions between the colonists and the English government. John, the elder brother, becomes a successful merchant and politician, while Edward becomes a soldier and adventurer, fighting in battles against the Native Americans and later in the English Civil War.The novel also explores themes of family, loyalty, and honor, as the brothers navigate their relationships with each other, their father, and the people around them. Along the way, they encounter a diverse cast of characters, including Native American leaders, English soldiers, and Puritan ministers.Overall, Adam's Sons is a gripping tale of adventure, politics, and family drama set against the backdrop of colonial America. With vivid descriptions and well-drawn characters, the novel offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
