Such facts I have endeavored to set forth in a compact form for the information of both old and young, who do not read larger works, that they may perceive the heroic origin, the principles, the ideals, the spirit, and the notable achievements of Congregational churches, and also the work which they are now doing. In preparing this statement of facts, I am chiefly indebted to Walker's History of the Congregational Churches in the United States in The American Church History Series, Vol. III., Dunning's Congregationalists in America, and Clark's Leavening the Nation. I have also gleaned valuable information from The Congregationalists by Leonard Woolsey Bacon, The Beginnings of New England by John Fiske, The Genesis of the New England Churches by Leonard Bacon, History of New England by Palfrey, The England and Holland of the Pilgrims by Morton Dexter, and other books referred to in the notes.
