Voices from Colonial America: Connecticut 1614-1776
Connecticut, often called The Constitution State, Land of Steady Habits, or The Provision State, carries a rich tapestry of names that reflect its vibrant history. Each moniker offers a glimpse into the character and past of this resolute New England state. Through engaging eyewitness accounts, dynamic narratives, and historical images, readers are transported back to Connecticut's early years.
Discover the intriguing details of how the first witchcraft trial and execution in North America occurred there in 1647. Explore the reasons why settlers from Massachusetts ventured into the fertile valley along the Quinnehtukqut River to establish Connecticut Colony, seeking new opportunities and greater religious freedom. Learn about Thomas Hooker's Fundamental Orders, which were adapted to become America's first written constitution. Additionally, see how the hard work and innovative spirit of the people, often termed "Yankee ingenuity," led to abundant harvests and the growth of manufacturing that played a crucial role in the Revolutionary War.
