Anotace knihy

1661 is a story of action, adventure, and intrigue, bringing to life the people and events that led to the settlement of Block Island, Rhode Island (The first democracy in America).
It is a uniquely American journey of the search for spiritual freedom involving heroic historical figures including Anne Hutchinson, Captain John Underhill, Mary Dyer and the leading men of Block Island.
While those espousing spiritual freedom are driven out of Puritan Massachusetts, the American Native nations struggle with losing their land and their culture.
It is a harsh world and violent times. Yet, a small group of like-minded pioneers is determined to find a place where all can live in peace and freely practice the convictions of their hearts.
The elements of the dramatic struggle that led to the settlement of Block Island some 400 years ago, while foundational to all that is good in America, are still churning in our American politics, religion, and spirituality.
But, thanks to the early Block Island Pioneers, this little Island continues to offer many a way of escape from the daily pressures of life.
