Daniel Dain spoke at the Cambridge Public Library, where he shared passages from his book ‘A History of Boston’ and engaged in a discussion on the significance of community density and diversity through a question and answer session.
Dan talked about the history of Anne Hutchinson, who was an important participant in the Antinomian Controversy. Anne was a Puritan spiritual advisor from the 1600’s who was eventually tied and banished from the colony, along with many of her supporters.
