Law and Society in Puritan Massachusetts: Essex County, 1629-1692 - Studies in Legal History
David Thomas Konig
Distinguished by the critical value it assigns to law in Puritan society, this study describes precisely how the Massachusetts legal system differed from England's and how equity and an adapted common law became so useful to ordinary individuals. The author discovers that law gradually replaced religion and communalism as the source of social stability.
