Seeking to integrate recent literature on community life and on the political ethos in colonial New England, Edward M.

In a massive sample of seventy widely dispersed towns, lists of towns, lists of town and provincial officeholders, biographical data, church records, town meeting records, and tax lists provide a core of material for analysis.
