Morgan, Edmund Sears. Handlin, Oscar, editor. [Winthrop, John]
The Puritan Dilemma. The Story of John Winthrop. Edited by Oscar Handlin.
Publisher: Boston, Little, Brown [1958]. 'Printing AA'. 224 p., index; 19.5 cm. "For John Winthrop and his companions the New World was a New Canaan, set aside by Divine Providence as the field for their experiment. Yet once the Puritans had arrived, they encountered in disconcerting number a variety of visionaries whose individual conceptions of society threatened to destroy the whole community. It was manifestly dangerous to allow every man to build his own Utopia. The Puritans thus found it necessary, almost at once, to begin to delineate the lines between the freedom of the individual to follow his own dreams and the responsibility of the society for maintaining order. The conflict was exposed in dramatic fashion in the career of the main mover of the Puritan migration and its most influential leader, John Winthrop. The vivid account of his life throws light on the whole movement from the start of the enterprise in England to the development of a flourishing society in Massachusetts Bay." Pictorial paper; rear covers stained; good. stock#20361.

Handlin, Oscar (Ill. Samuel H. Bryant)
The Americans: A New History of the People of the United States
Publisher: Boston: The Atlantic Monthly Press - Little, Brown and Company, 1963.. First Edition. 22 X 15 cm. VG/VG-. Light brown cloth with publisher's device blind-stamped on front board, top edge dyed red, xii, 434 pp, 28 b&w drawings (one at the head of each chapter), index. Spine ends turned in, slight edge wear, a few small spots on edges of boards, corners of a few leaves creased, owner's stamp on title page. DJ somewhat soiled and rubbed, with a 4 cm snag at rear joint; in Brodart archival cover. From the DJ: "The Americans traces broad themes -- the evolution of free political, economic and social institutions, the changes in basic ideas and assumptions, and the pressures upon spiritual and familial forms -- without losing sight of the mass of men and women who shared the American experience. Its approach enables this work to escape excessive emphasis upon a few great men and upon the traditional succession of political and military events." Based on both primary and secondary sources, but without the usual scholarly apparatus of extensive notes.
