The Further Accompt of the Progress of the Gospel Amongst the Indians in New England by Edward Reynolds is a historical account of the spread of Christianity among the Native American tribes in the New England region during the 17th century. The book details the efforts of English Puritan missionaries to convert the indigenous people to their faith and the challenges they faced in doing so. Reynolds describes the cultural barriers that existed between the two groups, as well as the political and social tensions that arose as a result of the English colonization of the area. He also provides insight into the daily lives of the Native Americans and their beliefs and practices before and after their exposure to Christianity.
