A Sketch of the Life of John Winthrop the Younger, Founder of Ipswich, Massacusetts, in 1633. Second Edition

It should be borne in mind that the purpose of this Sketch has merely been to glean from a variety of sources, and place on record for convenient reference, the principal events in the life of the subject (John Winthrop the Younger) from his arrival in Boston in November 1631, to his retirement from the Massachusetts magistracy in the spring of 1650. His previous experiences in Europe, and his long public career in Connecticut, are but briefly and incidentally described...The present narrative, short as it is, contains an assemblage of facts which have been got together with a good deal of labor, and so far as it goes, it may fairly be regarded as authoritative. A new everyname index has been included to facilitate easy access to information.
