Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a collection of letters and papers written by Cadwallader Colden, a Scottish-born physician and public official in colonial America, offers a captivating glimpse into the life and times of one of the most influential figures of the 18th century. Spanning the years 1715-1748, Colden's correspondence provides rich insights into the political, social, and intellectual landscape of the American colonies. Through Colden's detailed accounts of his experiences and observations, readers gain a nuanced understanding of the religious, scientific, and political controversies that shaped colonial society. From his involvement in boundary disputes and Native American relations to his pioneering work in botany and medicine, Colden's writings illuminate the complexities of a society grappling with its identity and place in the world. The book not only offers a fascinating portrait of Colden himself but also sheds light on the broader currents of Enlightenment thought and the transition from colonial dependence to the stirrings of American independence. Colden's ideas on government, natural history, and the role of faith in public life continue to resonate today, making this collection a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the formative years of the United States.
