Yes, it's online too. It was inspired by a project that Matthew Poole began but was unable to complete. It's very interesting reading.

Yes, he looked like he needed his hair cut,
Please let us know what you think of it
His hair (actually, wig) is much longer in the picture found in Meet the Puritans.

Was this book the foundation for Cotton Mather's later study in Puritan New England?

I'm sure it was influential. Increase's book was first published in 1684. Cotton began working on Magnalia Christi Americana in 1690. Both have similar goals in attempting to show God's providential plans for and dealings with New England.

Those Puritans must have been imitating our own "Amazing Grace".

So Cotton Increased the work of Increase?

So Cotton Increased the work of Increase?
Cotton was very prolific, but Increase wrote 175 books and pamphlets, and it would be hard for most to top that. They were quite a pair, and of course there was Richard too. That was an amazing spiritual dynasty.

I think Dr. Andrew Holmes (my lecturer last semester at Queen's) said that Cotton Mather wrote around 380 books.

Well, Wikipedia says that Cotton Mather wrote 450 books and pamphlets. So I guess Cotton did Increase the work of Increase.
