| Old Times in the Colonies (1492-1760 AD)
by Charles Coffin
The settlement of our country was the beginning of a new era. Ever since the
days of King John, when the barons compelled him to sign the Magna Charta in the
meadow of Runnymede, the oppressed people of England had struggled against
tyranny. And when the emigrants sailed across the Atlantic to establish their
homes in Virginia and New England, it was for the transplanting of liberty to a
continent where everything was new, and where the conditions that surrounded
them were wholly unlike those of the Old World.
Through all the narratives of conflicts, turmoil and wars, you will see Justice and Liberty ever advancing. Old Times in
the Colonies, therefore is not an unmeaning record of events, but the story
of the rise of a great nation, the growth of individual liberty, the coming in
of constitutional government in the Western World—the history of America.
