Pulitzer Prize Winner: "A meticulous and remarkably detailed account of the early government and social organization of the town of Sudbury, Massachusetts." -- Time
In addition to drawing on local records from Sudbury, Massachusetts, the author of this classic work, which won the Pulitzer Prize in History, traced the town's early families back to England to create an outstanding portrait of a colonial settlement in the seventeenth century. He looks at the various individuals who formed this new society; how institutions and government took shape; what changed -- or didn't -- in the movement from the Old World to the New; and how those from different local cultures adjusted, adapted, competed, and cooperated to plant the seeds of what would become, in the century to follow, a commonwealth of the United States of America.
"An important and interesting book... to the student of institutions, even to the sociologist, as well as to the historian." -- The New England Quarterly
