Thomas Hooker: The First American Democrat by Walter Seth Logan is a biography that chronicles the life and legacy of Thomas Hooker, a prominent figure in American history and one of the key figures in the development of democracy in the United States. The book explores Hooker's life from his early years in England to his role as a Puritan leader in the Massachusetts Bay Colony and later as the founder of the Connecticut Colony. Logan provides a detailed account of Hooker's religious and political beliefs, including his advocacy for religious freedom and his belief in the importance of individual liberty. The book also examines Hooker's contributions to the development of democratic institutions in America, including his role in drafting the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut, which is considered to be one of the earliest written constitutions in the world. Throughout the book, Logan draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Hooker's own writings, to provide a nuanced and comprehensive portrait of this important historical figure. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, political philosophy, and the evolution of democratic institutions in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
