I started this blog to provide a central point of reference, a place to consolidate, the writing I was doing on New England's history. I also wanted to encourage interest and debate in this area.
Since starting the blog I have - as will be obvious - in fact done very little about posting material even though I have continued writing in a variety of fora. I will try to rectify this.
