Moreover, it seemed to call into question the religious mission and spiritual status of a group that considered itself a Chosen People, carrying out a divinely inspired \"errand into the wilderness.\" Seven texts reprinted here reveal efforts of Puritan writers to make sense of King Philip's War. Largely unavailable since the 19th century, they represent the various divisions of Puritan society and literary forms typical of Puritan writing, from which emerged some of the most vital genres of American popular writing. Thoroughly annotated, the book contains a general introduction and introductions to each text.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67754186768672,"sku":"USED0819550272","price":24.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61j_jzAJvaL.jpg?v=1791925485","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/so-dreadful-a-judgment-puritan-responses-to-king-philips-war-1676-77-0819550272-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
