John Eliot
Puritan Hero
Who were the Puritans, and why are they important? What can we learn from them today? The Puritan movement began in England during the sixteenth century and continued all the way into the early eighteenth century. Although the Church of England was formed as a result of the Reformation, the Puritans believed it needed much more reform. Written for children and young people, this series will prove a suitable introduction to the Puritans for adults as well.
