Anne Hutchinson Unsung Heroine of History

ANNE HUTCHINSON: UNSUNG HEROINE OF HISTORY (1591-1643). Authors: Bianca Leonardo & Winnifred K. Rugg. This true story unfolds in one's mind like a film, in full color & constant action. It is dramatic & tragic -- movie material! Anne left her comfortable home in England, with her husband & children, to settle in Boston, then only four years old. The living conditions were harsh, the climate severe. Devotion to God was most important to Anne--the heart of life itself. Women were not allowed to be ministers then, but Anne preached in her own home. Her popularity became a threat to the all-male Church leaders. They called her a dissident, her beliefs, heresy, & her person, a threat to the Colony itself. What were her beliefs? That everyone, in all time, with sufficient devotion, can receive inspiration & revelation directly from God. In due time, she was put on trial, pregnant with her sixteenth child. She was excommunicated & banished from the Colony. She & her young children trekked to New York, still wild country. There they were massacred by the Indians. This gripping, true story is very little known. It deserves to be made into a motion picture. There is something here that cannot be captured in mere words, but the reader's spirit will know what it is, will hold onto it & develop it in its larger meaning.Leonardo, Bianca is the author of 'Anne Hutchinson Unsung Heroine of History' with ISBN 9780930852306 and ISBN 0930852303.
