Sobre este artículo
Seven books in one, each with its own title page. The seven books include 1) the history and settlement of New England; 2) the lives of its governors and magistrates; 3) biographies of 'Sixty Famous Divines'; 4) a history and roll of Harvard College; 5) a history of the Congregational Church in New England; 6) a record of the remarkable providences revealing divine influence in the colonies; and 7) the 'War of the Lord' dealing with the devil, the Separatists, Familists, Antinomians, Quakers, clerical imposters and the Indians.
The map, frequently lacking, is sometimes known as 'Mather's Map.' It is the first 18th century map of New England and depicts an area from Casco Bay, west to the Hudson then south to Manhattan and northwest past Long Island to Martha's Vineyard and Cape Cod, before heading north again past Boston to Casco Bay in present-day Maine.
