John Eliot’s Mission to the Indians Before King Philip’s WarHarvard University Press, 1999 M04 30 - 331 pages No previous work on John Eliot's mission to the Indians has told such a comprehensive and engaging story. Richard Cogley takes a dual approach: he delves deeply into Eliot's theological writings and describes the historical development of Eliot's missionary work. By relating the two, he presents fresh perspectives that challenge widely accepted assessments of the Puritan mission. |
