On a winter's day in 1820, the East Parish of Bradford gathered to hear its own story told. History spoke from the pulpit. In this powerful historical discourse sermon, Rev. Gardner B. Perry retraces two centuries since the first Puritan New England settlement, setting the small town of Bradford within the wider sweep of early American local history. Blending devotional reflection with carefully preserved facts, he recounts the rise of church and community from its 17th century New England origins to the early 19th century Massachusetts of his own day. For anyone drawn to New England town history, Bradford Massachusetts history, and the evolution of colonial era church history, Perry's account opens a window onto everyday belief, conflict, resilience, and governance. Names, dates, pastoral successions, and civic milestones make it an invaluable genealogy research resource and New England history reference, illuminating how students of Mayflower pilgrims history and later waves of settlers shaped one small community on the Merrimack. Readers interested in early American local history, Puritan New England settlement, and the lived reality behind any American colonial history book will find rich, authentic detail. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This modern edition revives a rare early 19th century Massachusetts voice for casual readers of history and connoisseurs of town chronicles, ensuring that Bradford's testimony endures for families, libraries, and serious collectors alike.
