A rigorous and highly readable account. . . . A masterful exposition of Puritan religious history. <br> -- The Journal of Religion


Bozeman examines Anglo-American Puritanism from 1570 to 1640 as a disciplinary movement, with the focus on self-control and piety giving way to the backlash of Antinomianism, or salvation through faith rather than good works. Bozeman's book is a mature work of scholarship that fulfills the potential of a previous seminal article and complements his earlier work. -- Historical Journal A rigorous and highly readable account. . . . A masterful exposition of Puritan religious history. -- The Journal of Religion [A] definitive exposition of the movement's biblical restoration. . . . A brilliant study. . . . Add[s] substantially to scholars' comprehension of the early seventeenth-century transatlantic Puritan movement. -- William and Mary Quarterly
