Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book transports readers to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of a Puritan family in colonial Connecticut. The story revolves around the Hardy family, led by Jeremiah Hardy, the stern schoolmaster and father, and his wife, Mistress Hardy. We see the family navigate the strictures of Puritan life, from daily routines to the anxieties of religious upheaval. The author crafts a vibrant picture of life in Paradise, a town grappling with the rise of the Church of England, the influence of New Light preachers, and the enduring hold of traditional Puritan beliefs. Through the eyes of the Hardy children, particularly Esther, the intelligent and introspective eldest daughter, we witness the tensions between tradition and change, and the struggles to reconcile individual desires with societal expectations. The book offers a captivating and thought-provoking exploration of faith, family, and the evolving landscape of religious thought in early America.
