A 17th Century Colonial New England Bibliography
This is a sometimes-annotated bibliography of the books in my personal reference library as I research
17th century colonial New England. There are a lot about the Salem witch-hunt, Puritan thought, and Anglo-Indian contact, but also a few odds
and ends that make sense to me to have on hand. Please note: I do not lend books. To anyone. Most of these titles can be borrowed from
any good public or university library. If you want to purchase a copy of any of these titles, I have included direct links to Amazon.com
for all but a handful of out-of-print or hard-to-find local imprint titles. To print out the whole bibliography, please use
the printer-friendly version to save paper.
