      abstract = {Written by a leading expert on the Puritans, this brief,  informative volume offers a wealth of background on this  key religious movement. This book traces the shaping,  triumph, and decline of the Puritan world, while also  examining the role of religion in the shaping of American  society and the role of the Puritan legacy in American  history. It also examines the effort of Puritans who left  England to establish a godly kingdom in America. Bremer  examines puritan theology, views on family and community,  their beliefs about the proper relationship between  religion and public life, the limits of toleration, the  balance between individual rights and one's obligation to  others, and the extent to which public character should be  shaped by private religious belief.},
