From the author of the "New York Times" bestseller "Assassination
Vacation" comes an examination of the Puritans, their covenant communities,
deep -rooted idealism, political and cultural relevance, and their myriad
oddities. To this day, America views itself as a Puritan nation, but author
Vowell investigates what that means--and what it should mean. What was this
great political enterprise all about? Who were these people who are considered
the philosophical, spiritual, and moral ancestors of our nation? What Vowell
discovers is something far different from what their uptight shoe-buckles-and-
corn reputation might suggest. The people she finds are highly literate, deeply
principled, and surprisingly feisty. Their story is filled with pamphlet feuds,
witty courtroom dramas, and bloody vengeance.--From publisher description.
