This book tells the story of the Rev. Benjamin Colman (1673-1747),
one of eighteenth-century America's most influential ministers, and
his transatlantic social world of letters. Exploring his epistolary
network reveals how imperial culture diffused through the British
Atlantic and formed the Dissenting Interest in America, England,
and Scotland. Traveling to and living in England between 1695-1699,
Colman forged enduring connections with English Dissenters that
would animate and define his ministry for nearly a half century.
The chapters reassemble Colman's epistolary web to illuminate the
Dissenting Interest's broad range of activities through the
circulation of Dissenting histories, libraries, missionaries,
revival news, and provincial defenses of religious liberty. This
book argues that over the course of Colman's life the Dissenting
Interest integrated, extended, and ultimately detached, presenting
the history of Protestant Dissent as fundamentally a transatlantic
story shaped by the provincial edges of the British Empire.
