出版商概要
Bremer has drawn contemporary and later sources into a continuous narrative, and made an important contribution to early North American history. British readers for whom the first part of the 17th century means the Caroline divines and the poetry of George Herbert will be reminded that there were other equally honourable aspects of Christian life at this time. Church Times [An] accomplished biography, a work of patient and devoted scholarship and of measured and persuasive judgement. Blair Worden, Times Literary Supplement ... a formidable volume embodying much original research ... Francis Bremer has produced a large scale portrait. Paul Johnson, Literary Review The biography that John Winthrop deserves. Suffolk Journal Mr Bremer attempts to drag the Winthrop story out of the mists of 17th century Puritanism. He also presents a flawlessly researched academic argument for reinstalling him as one of the true founding fathers of modern-day America. It was perhaps his 'City on a Hill' sermon, which set the most enduring moral blueprint for the country. Certainly then, John Winthrop's is a story that deserves to be told. Suffolk Journal Bremer creates an appealing portrait of Winthrop as a leader and as a man of religious faith. The Sun (New York) ... nicely presented ... and exceedingly well-researched and footnoted. The Sun (New York) A wonderful achievement. The story of Winthrop's pilgrimage from unendurable stress in the Old World to endurable stress in the New World is captured with a freshness and vividness that kept me enthralled ... This is one of the great early modern biographies. John Morrill, University of Cambridge This is an important book for both students of English and American history. Not to be missed. Margaret Brown, The Historical Association 再读一些...
