The Conquest of Canaan is a long narrative poem written by Timothy Dwight and published in 1785. The poem is divided into eleven books and tells the story of the Israelites' conquest of the land of Canaan, as recounted in the Bible. The poem is written in a formal, rhyming style, with a focus on moral and religious themes. The story follows the Israelites as they journey from Egypt to Canaan, facing various challenges and obstacles along the way. The poem also includes a number of subplots and characters, including the Canaanite king, the Israelite leader Joshua, and various other figures from the Bible. Throughout the poem, Dwight emphasizes the importance of faith, perseverance, and obedience to God's will. The Conquest of Canaan was a popular work in its time, and is considered an important example of early American literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
