Product Details
From the days of the Quinnipiack Indians and the arrival of the first Puritan settlers in 1638, a fascinating cycle of prosperity, decline, and renewal has played out in the streets of New Haven and the quads of Yale University. Home to President Lincoln’s bodyguard and the constitutional delegate whose compromise led to our nation’s bicameral legislature, this Connecticut city has been the stage for a dramatic story of immigration, industry, and defiance. 

Written by historian Michael Sletcher who is editor of the Benjamin Franklin Papers at Yale University. A Commonwealth Scholarship award winner, visiting fellow at Harvard University, and lifetime fellow of the Cambridge Commonwealth Trust, he taught colonial American history at the University of Cambridge and has published a wide variety of professional articles.
