Synopsis
Established in 1630, Watertown was among the original six towns of Massachusetts. Its early history was marked by frequent disputes, a penchant for questioning authority, and an atmosphere of tension and discord. In recounting the story of Watertown's formative years, Roger Thompson examines how the community managed to avoid descending into anarchy. He also explores the ways in which English settlers preserved their habits of behavior in a new-world environment, even as they were obliged to innovate and embrace change. Thompson describes Watertown's early government, its relations with Native Americans and neighboring communities, its religious and economic affairs, and the day-to-day experiences of its people. Conflict occurred over a wide variety of issues: land allocation, administrative accountability, religious orthodoxy and exclusivity, generational and gender differences, livestock and fencing haves and have-nots. Thompson brings these disputes to life through a series of vivid case studies drawn from the unpublished Middlesex County Court Records. Among others, we meet John Sawin, who despite his best efforts at subterfuge was convicted of stealing and selling a neighbor's

    Communication with the seller was great. They also provided contact information if there’s any problems on a sticker on my item packaging. The item was exactly as described. They look in really good condition. Shipping was quick and the value was great. Recommend highly the seller.

    Item arrived just as described / shown in the provided images and was fair value. Arrived from across the country in a week. Box / packaging arrived a little worn (and the packing tape on top came loose which is concerning) but I would blame this on USPS. Would buy again!
