Town as the unit of government in English origins
The essay rebukes Charles Coffin for claiming the state rather than the town is the unit of government. It traces town autonomy from medieval England to Puritan Massachusetts, arguing towns governed local affairs, chose provosts, and policed roads, while the state may override but cannot erase town self rule.
