In praise of the first edition: "The transcripts reproduced here of the examination of Mrs. Hutchinson at the General Court in November 1637 and her trial at the Boston church in March 1638 remain as vivid and revealing as ever. The editing and presentation of the documents . . . ensure that the volume will be the standard text for these materials for a long time."--Conrad Wright, "American Historical Review"A comprehensive, well-edited collection of documents."--"Choice
