The Gentle Puritan: a Life of Ezra Stiles, 1727-1795 (Published for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture, Williamsburg, Virginia) 1st edition
Edmund S. Morgan
Now available again, this important biography of the early New England intellectual leader was greeted as a "landmark in the history of the American mind" by Clifford K. Shipton when it appeared in 1962. Stiles lived at a critical time--the transition from the Reformation to the Enlightenment, which came suddenly in New England--and because of his position, his influence was great."
Originally published in 1974.
