Summary:
"Cotton Mather (1663-1728) was America's most famous pastor and scholar at the beginning of the eighteenth century. People today generally associate him with the infamous Salem witch trials, but in this new biography Rick Kennedy sets the record straight about Mather, telling the story of how this brilliant leader actually was the very first American evangelical."-- Publisher.
