Reading #3; Questions

1. In this letter, John Winthrop described Boston as a functioning and prospering town.  What questions might a reader in Europe pose in a return letter to Winthrop?

2. What evidence did Winthrop offer to prove that Boston was approaching self-sufficiency?

3. According to Winthrop, what role has God played in their settlement?  What does this tell us about their view of the Natives?
