The New English Canaan of Thomas Morton

ebook
Originally published in 1637. This edition, published in 1883, includes a chapter about Thomas Morton and a bibliography of the New English Canaan written by the editor, Charles Francis Adams Jr. From his preface, "The New English Canaan is, in many respects, a singular book. One of its most singular features is the extent of ground it covers. Not only is it full of obscure references to incidents in early New England history, but it deals directly with the aborigines, the trees, animals, fish, birds and geology of the region; besides having constant incidental allusions to literature,—both classic and of the author’s time,—to geography, and to then current events."
