Synopsis
Excerpt from More Notes From Underledge
The bed of the river here is only about one hundred and fifty feet above the level of the sea. The river is perhaps a hundred and fifty feet in width, but so closely bordered by trees that the surface of the water rarely shows from a distance, excepting here and there when the trees are bare The hills beyond the val ley rise in steep rounded slopes, and can be seen, tier beyond tier, for many miles, espe cially in the north-northwest, the most distant points visible in that direction being perhaps fourteen hundred feet in height, but the hori zon line is not far from a horizontal one which certainly befits such a line.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book transports the reader back to the founding and early years of the Connecticut colony, a time of hardship and tribulation, yet also of great achievement and determination. The author takes the reader on a journey into the village of Tunxis, sharing the trials and triumphs of the early settlers, their conflicts with the powerful tribes that inhabited the land, and their struggles to establish a new society in the wilderness. The author draws heavily on the writings and observations of the Rev. Thomas Hooker, one of the most influential figures in the founding of Connecticut, to provide a deep understanding of the social, political, moral, and religious beliefs that guided the lives of these early Americans.
