Before the United States, there were experiments in belief, law, and power along a raw Atlantic edge. A continent was being remade. In The Puritan Colonies (Volume II) and English Colonies in America (Volume III), John Andrew Doyle, one of the most respected Victorian historians of the English-speaking world, traces how settlement became society. His strength is proportion: local choices set against empire, commerce, migration, and the restless pull of the Atlantic. These volumes read as a colonial American history book with the sweep of a complete colonial history set, and they reward anyone seeking the puritan colonies of New England in firm, uncluttered detail. Expect close attention to english settlement in america, colonial politics and religion, and the lived realities of seventeenth century New England, from Mayflower era history to the hard choices of colonial America 1600s, without modern sensationalism. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this unabridged classic edition has been restored for today's and future generations. It stands as both a dependable colonial America research aid for American history students and an essential holding for classic-history collectors: a lucid, influential account that helped shape modern understanding of early English America and atlantic world colonialism. Doyle writes from the British side of the story, yet keeps colonial voices in view, clarifying how institutions and ideas crossed oceans, hardened into custom, and seeded later American debates about authority, conscience, and community itself. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
