This book examines the history of the Baptist community in New England, the role it has played and the sometimes extreme adversity it has faced throughout its history. The author, a Baptist historian, chronicles the experiences of these congregations through the lens of religious tensions, shifting political tides, and the complexities of human nature. The work includes discussion of societal, religious and political issues, including the growing divide between the Baptist and Quaker communities and the ways in which oppression can lead to both positive and negative outcomes for a religious community. Ultimately, this history of the Baptists in New England is a story of triumph over adversity, resilience of faith, and the uniquely American development of religious freedom.
