Alban V1: Or The History Of A Young Puritan is a novel written by Jedediah Vincent Huntington and first published in 1853. The book follows the story of Alban, a young Puritan who lives in colonial New England during the 17th century. Alban's family is deeply religious and strict, and he struggles to reconcile his own desires and ambitions with the expectations placed upon him by his community.As Alban grows up, he becomes increasingly disillusioned with the Puritan way of life and begins to question the strict religious doctrines that govern his community. He becomes interested in science and philosophy, and begins to explore new ideas that challenge the traditional beliefs of his Puritan upbringing.Despite his growing curiosity and desire for intellectual freedom, Alban is constantly at odds with his family and community. He is accused of heresy and blasphemy, and is eventually excommunicated from the church. As he struggles to find his place in the world, Alban must confront the harsh realities of life in colonial New England, including the oppression of Native Americans and the brutal treatment of women accused of witchcraft.Overall, Alban V1: Or The History Of A Young Puritan is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that explores the complex social and religious dynamics of colonial New England. Through the character of Alban, Huntington offers a nuanced and insightful portrait of a young man struggling to find his own path in a world dominated by rigid social and religious norms.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
