Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book follows the development, struggles, and eventual triumphs of the Plymouth colony, a group of Puritan settlers who sought religious freedom in the New World. Established in 1620, the colony grew into a thriving community thanks to the principles and devotion of its founders. Among these exceptional figures were John Elliott, who dedicated his life to missionary work among Native Americans, and Jonathan Edwards, an influential theologian and philosopher. The book delves into the colony's pivotal role in the American Revolution, with General Washington leading the Continental Army to declare independence from Great Britain on July 4, 1776. After the war, the young nation expanded its maritime trade, with the first vessel reaching China after the Revolution being a sloop. The Marine Society, established to support seamen, played a crucial role in this development. The book offers a detailed historical account of the colony's growth, its impact on Native American communities, and its contributions to the formation of the United States. It explores the colony's religious foundations, its economic development, and its enduring legacy as a beacon of freedom and self-governance.
