In an in-depth exploration of the relationship between Puritans in England and New England in the 1640s, Bremer challenges the view that the colonists turned away from English Puritans in the 1640s, arguing that the two communities retained a complex, symbiotic connection and that the clergy on both sides of the Atlantic saw themselves as closely linked in their spiritual mission. This thought-provoking volume makes a solid contribution to Puritan studies and offers a basis for further discussions of the trans-Atlantic aspects of the Congregational community.
