Before the Revolution had a name, Connecticut was already a proving ground of settlement, worship, and conflict. New England begins in Connecticut. In Volume I of A Complete History of Connecticut, Benjamin Trumbull traces the colony from the emigration of its first planters from England in 1630 through the shaping decades of colonial Connecticut 1630-1764, following civic institutions alongside the everyday pressures of frontier life. Part colonial history chronicle, part ecclesiastical history volume, this narrative moves between town foundations, laws, and public affairs and the steady presence of congregational church history. Trumbull writes close to the sources and the people: the Connecticut founding settlers and their descendants, the ministers and meetings that held communities together, and the hard realities of 17th century New England, including the long shadow of the New England Indian wars. For American history students, and for readers drawn to early American history in its raw, local detail, it stands as one of the most substantial colonial America primary sources in print. A landmark of local historiography, it captures the colony before independence, when religion and governance were inseparable at every level. It also serves as a practical genealogy research reference, rich in names, places, and connections that help family stories find their footing. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike, and a classic reprint edition worthy of the shelf.
