The Brittle Thread of Life: Backcountry People Make a Place for Themselves in Early America
Mark Carlson Williams
The colonists who settled the backcountry in eighteenth-century New England were recruited from the social fringe, people who were desperate for land, autonomy, and respectability. This title offers voice to the settlers, proprietors, and officials of the small colonial settlements that became Granby, Connecticut, and Ashfield, Massachusetts.
