This book considers three defining movements driven from London and
within the region that describe the experience of the Church of
England in New England between 1686 and 1786. It explores the
radical imperial political and religious change that occurred in
Puritan New England following the late seventeenth-century
introduction of a new charter for the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the
Anglican Church in Boston and the public declaration of several
Yale 'apostates' at the 1722 college commencement exercises. These
events transformed the religious circumstances of New England and
fuelled new attention and interest in London for the national
church in early America. The political leadership, controversial
ideas and forces in London and Boston during the run-up to and in
the course of the War for Independence, was witnessed by and
affected the Church of England in New England. The book appeals to
students and researchers of English History, British Imperial
History, Early American History and Religious History.

Examines the controversial establishment of the first Anglican
Church in Boston in 1686, and how later, political leaders John
Adams, Samuel Adams, and John Wilkes exploited the disputes as
political dynamite together with taxation, trade, and the
quartering of troops: topics which John Adams later recalled as
causes of the American Revolution.

The story of the origins of the first Anglican congregation
established in Boston and New England, Kings Chapel, is
significantly shaped by the gradually emerging imperial policies of
the government of Charles II during the late seventeenth century.
It is a transatlantic account influenced largely by two forces, one
in London, driven by the members of the Board of Trade and
Plantations, and the other in Boston, driven by a handful of
merchants with active and productive commercial ties with London
and Bristol trading firms. Extending the Church of England to
Puritan Boston after the revocation in 1684 of the Massachusetts
Bay Colony's first charter and the creation of the province as a
royal jurisdiction was received reluctantly by the town's
residents, who considered it a novel, abrupt, and unwanted
political and ecclesiastical act. This was not merely the extension
of a religious group from the Old World to the New, for the Church
of England was granted great political and cultural authority
through the laws of England's unwritten constitution.
