A study approaching John Winthrop, first governor of Massachusetts, as a literary artist rather than a historian. The author examines the governor's writings in their political, social and theological contexts, highlighting his journal, his record of the Puritans' struggle with Anne Hutchinson and many rare documents. Along with a biography of Winthrop, the author presents an analysis of his canon, showing it to be valuable not only in its own right, but also as representative of its age.
