Elmo Scott Watson notes a surge of interest in Anne Hutchinson with three new biographies. The pieces explore her role as a feminist thinker and the founder of early American religious gatherings, detailing her family background and the controversial stance that shaped her life.
The piece recounts Anne Hutchinson's rise in colonial Massachusetts, her influence through meetings with John Cotton, her trial for heresy, and banishment to Rhode Island. It covers her later years across Long Island and Westchester, ending with Mohegan attacks that killed her and many neighbors and her posthumous legacy as a symbol of civil liberty and religious toleration.
