About this ebook
Thomas Morton's 'The New English Canaan' is a fascinating work of early American literature that provides a unique perspective on the English colonization of the New World. Written in a lively and irreverent style, the book offers a vivid portrayal of Native American culture and challenges the prevailing beliefs about the superiority of European civilization. Morton's witty and satirical commentary on the Puritans and their strict religious practices adds a humorous element to the narrative, making it an engaging read for those interested in colonial history and literature. Set in the literary context of early 17th-century America, 'The New English Canaan' stands out as a bold and provocative exploration of cultural differences and colonial encounters. Thomas Morton, a colorful figure in colonial America, was known for his unorthodox views and rebellious spirit. As a lawyer, adventurer, and controversial writer, Morton's experiences with the Native Americans inspired him to document their customs and traditions in 'The New English Canaan'. Recommended for readers seeking a fresh perspective on early American history and the clash of cultures in the New World.
